History of immigration in Derbyshire
« on: Thursday 02 July 15 11:17 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Does anyone know whether and groups of immigrants from around North Africa or the Middle East or Sephardic Jews would have settled in Derbyshire at any point before 1850?
Thanks.

Have you tried searching the 1851 census for people from certain countries?
Always looking for GOODWINS in Berkshire :)

Most of the people born in Spain and living in Derbyshire in 1851 are either British citizens, or at a Roman Catholic school.
