Hi,
I am looking for information on William Bull, who according to the 1901 census was 29, birth year would be 1873. His birth place is listed as Buckinghamshire, Padbury. Census county - Leicestershire, Parish - Wigston Magna and occupation - railway engine stoker.
If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Wmouse

Hi,
Are you looking for info after 1901 or before 1901? His family is in the 1881 and 1891 censuses, for example. Let me know if you need details.
Cheers,
Ros

Roz,
Both before 1901 and after if at all possible.
If you have the details from the 1881 and 1891 census' that would be great. Do you know where I could get more details on the 1901 census?
Thanks

Hi again,
For some reason I couldn't find William Bull in the 1901 census. You can look at it at www.1901census.nationalarchives.gov.uk (pay to view).
However, here are some more things to go on with:
1891
School Lane, Padbury
Bull, William abt 1842 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Head, Farm labourer
Bull, Elizabeth abt 1849 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Wife
Bull, William G abt 1872 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Son, Farm labourer
Bull, Rose E abt 1877 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Daughter
Bull, Albert E L abt 1880 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Son
Bull, Lily L H abt 1882 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Daughter
1881 census (you can look this up yourself at familysearch.org)
Main Street, Padbury
William Abbott abt 1811 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Father in Law
Albert E. Bull abt 1880 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Son
Elizabeth Bull abt 1849 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Wife
Rose E. Bull abt 1877 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Daughter
William Bull abt 1842 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Head
William G. Bull abt 1872 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Son
The father-in-law a real bonus!
Marriage (freebmd)
March quarter 1869, Buckingham 3a/627
Abbott, Elizabeth
BULL, William
I couldn’t find the Bulls in 1871 or 1861, but here is Elizabeth’s family in 1861:
1861 census
Lower Way, Padbury
William Abbott abt 1811 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Head, ag lab.
Henry Abbott abt 1856 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Son
Rosanna Abbott abt 1852 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Daughter, Pillow case maker
In Buckingham:
William Clark abt 1841 Buckinghamshire Head, ag lab.
Eliza Clark abt 1840 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Wife, lacemaker
Elizabeth Abbott abt 1849 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Visitor, lacemaker
Mary Abbott abt 1812 Padbury, Buckinghamshire Visitor, lacemaker
Mary is probably Elizabeth’s mother.
Cheers,
Ros
