Looking for John Wain in 1841 & 1851 census
« on: Wednesday 23 December 15 02:59 GMT (UK) »
John Wain was born 4 Oct 1787 Market Bosworth & died 1870 in the Union Workhouse. He married Catherine Robinson in 1812 Twycross. Catherine was born abt 1791 possibly Twycross?

Their children born in Twycross were Thomas [b 1814], John [abt 1816], Jane [1819], Charles [1821], Elizabeth [1823], Joseph [abt 1826] & George [abt 1829].

John snr was a labourer.

I am unable to locate him and or his family in 1841 & 1851 census.  The 1861 census he is in Union Workhouse, a widower aged 76.

I am hoping to narrow down the dates for Catherine's death plus get some idea of where she was born and about what year as well as locate the family in the 2 census records.

Hi I can see this family in 1841?

John Wain 55
Mary 55 Not born in County
George 11
James Jee 4
Charles Jee 20
Catherine Jee 20
Residing The Rectory, Market Bosworth
Census Ref HO107/602/ 1/7 / 6

So if him did he re-marry?

Maybe not as in 1851 there are 2 John Wain's in Market Bosworth, one with Mary b Osbaston, and another aged 61 b Market Bosworth Widower occ Labourer b Market Bosworth?

Hello Keyboard,

The 2nd one seems the best fit "aged 61 b Market Bosworth Widower occ Labourer b Market Bosworth".

Would you be able to paste the link at all???

Thanks Keyboard86

Looked everywhere trying to work out the meaning of the numbers but thankfully you have taken pity on me.  :-[

Yes I located him and thank you. 

Does it look like he is a widower in 1851???

Now I am unsure :-\
