Blackburn: Robert EDLESTON, born 1841, Livesey
« on: Friday 24 November 17 16:39 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I wonder if anyone can possibly unearth the 1871 England Census for the above.   His wife is Ellen born 1839 and there will be two daughters, Elizabeth born 1862 and Ellen Ann 1868........a third daughter Isabella (Isabel) was born in July 1871.   I have all the other Census returns from 1851 through to 1911.

Incidentally, there are a variety of spellings, EDDLESTON, EDELSTON etc., and from research it appears a rather large number of families with those surnames in the Blackburn area. ::) ::)

Thank you for your help,

Tony

heatherjulie,

Absolutely wonderful......thank you so much.    My correspondent in British Columbia will no doubt echo my thoughts, particularly for the photograph.

Take care,

Tony
