1851 Bristol lookup request
« on: Saturday 08 March 08 10:51 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for the Board family in the1851 Bristol Census. I have the 1841 Census where they were living at Wade Street, St Philips, Bristol, the occupants (all Boards) were as follows:-
Mary 78, John 45, George 49, Ann 46, Mary Ann 22, George 19, John 17, Martha 16, Eliza 11, Elizabeth 8, Naomi 7, Susan 5, Stephen 2.
John jnr. is my ancestor and from his MC George is his Father. I assume Mary is his Grandmother and George snr. is his Uncle, and all the others his siblings. Can anyone help?
Many thanks Roy.

cannot find the board family
but found this under the name of rogers
1851
HO107/1954/482/33.
george rogers age 59. b. bristol . occ. cooper. head.
ann age 55. b. bristol. occ. bonnet maker.wife.
sylvia age 30. b. bristol. occ. tailoress. daughter.
sarah age 22. b. bristol. occ. (looks like) tobacconist. daughter.
eliza age 20. b, bristol. occ. ----? maker. daughter.
naomi age 17. b. bristol. occ. tobacconist. daughter.
susan age 14. b. bristol. daughter.
stephen age 12. b. bristol. son.
living at sion or lion road,st.philip and st.jacob,bristol.

living next door is a george rogers aged 29 and his family occ. carpenter.
also living with them but seperate is a john rogers aged 53 unmarried occ. cooper.

all the first names apart from sylvia seem to tie in the ages are about right too
is it at all feasible these are the board family from 1841

hopefully SKS will have a look at the entry and give their opinion
it seems vey strange to me.

Thanks for the reply. You are correct in your assumption I foolishly mixed up my Boards with my Rogers (John Rogers married Eliza Board). Luckily they didn't move house. Thanks again.

James Board 45, Eliza 50, Hy 15, Wm 11, Eliza 9, John 6, Frances 6, Richard 4. Have you any info on them? Roy
