Hi there,
Have you tried this site
http://www.cfhs.org.uk/
It has the index for the 1841 census and 1851 census for the whole of cambridgeshire plus chr from 1801 - 1837 and burials and a load of other info.
If you then post any ref no. on here someone can look up the ref on the actual census for. unfortunately I don't have the 1851. I only have the 1841.
All the best Angela

Thanks for that Angela. I have looked at the site but I'm not really able to tell which William Bull I am looking for as there are several of similar age. On the 1861 Census he was living in Chatteris but i can't find a William Bull there on the 1851 index on that site.
Thanks anyway.

I have him on the 1861 census living in Chatteris next door to Benson's Farm. I have tried but just can't read the address - its C??F Mill. He is there on his own aged 58 as a widow with his daughter Elisabeth aged 18. He has a family called Christmas visiting him. Someone sent me the image but no folio or reference number.
Hope that helps.
Thank you - your help is greatly appreciated.

Hi again,
I have been searching for a William with dau Elizabeth fitting the ages you give but none come close.
William constantly gives Fen stanton as place as birth on the 61, 71, 81 and interestingly Fen stanton is mentioned as Huntingdonshire I wonder if its one of those annoying boarder town on an old map I found Fenstanton is classed as Huntingdonshire.... But it doesn't explain why he isn't with his daughter ither in Doddington or Chatteris.. (the 2 places of birth she gives) I tried the variations of ball, bell, bill and boll but nothing seems to show up... Very strange. I couldn't find any William with dau Elizabeth in the whole of Cambs.
It seems likely that they should be in Chatteris as they remained there for the next few census.
~~~~~~~~
Births Dec 1842
~~~~~~~~
BULL Elizabeth North Witchford 14 115
North Witchford district covers Chatteris so this looks like the birth record of Elizabeth. If you were to get her birth cert it will let you know her mother and her full name.... Possible that if her mother died after giving birth to her that Elizabeth could have been with relatives whilst daddy was working...
I know I'm rambling too much... I just don't understand why they wouldn't be on the 1851.
Sorry I can't find them for you and forgive my ramblings. I have been searching for any clues that I could and thats the best I could find I'm afraid.
Hope you are able to find out more about your Elizabeth and her father.
All the best Angela.

Angela....what a little treasure you are ! Thank you so much for taking the time to search on my behalf. I think I will take your advice and order the certificate.....that would tell me her mother's name anyway and I can take it from there.
Thank you again.
