1861 Lookup - DAVIES
« on: Sunday 16 May 10 17:32 BST (UK) »
Hi

I'm trying to trace the following family on the 1861 census.

I've got them for 1851 and 1871, just can't find them in 1861.

father = William Davies b 1819 St Mary, Halkyn, Holywell, Flintshire
Mother = Mary (Isaac) b 1811 St Mary, Halkyn, etc
Children = William b1845 & Edward b 1847

1851 - they're at Bagilt St, Holywell
1871 - Allan Sq, Bagillt St, Holywell

William = smelter on both censuses

I've even tried searching for the street but nothing - was it missed when they did the census?

Certain parts of the Holywell area are missing from the 1861 census - I know this from experience unfortunately  :'( I was in the same boat as you, I looked everywhere for them but to no avail, and it sounds like your relatives were living in the same area ish as mine. Maybe they will turn up one day  :)

Good luck

No, haven't got their marriage or baptisms.  Do you have them at all?  Likewise, information re older generations would be appreciated.

My husband is descended from their son Edward.

Cheers

Monty

I don't have their baptisms or marriage but I'll look in the parish registers & see if I can find anything for you.

Can you please post details of the 1871 census :)

Paul.
