1841 & 1851 census for Conisbrough - for Spencer

[DebbieG]

Hi

I am looking for the Spencer family of Conisbrough.  In 1808 John Spencer (sorry don't know year of birth) married Alice Judson (born 1777 Yorkshire and still alive in 1861) in Hemingbrough - they then had at least Henry Judson Spencer (1815), John Spink Spencer (1813) and Sarah Ann Spencer (1817) in Conisbrough I should very much like to know if they had any more children and where and when John Spencer senior was born

Thanks in advance

Debbie

Hi  Oly

Thank you very much for that - it is the second of the two families that I am interested in - though the parents John Spencer (snr) and his wife Alice (nee Judson) wern't there - I wonder where they were.  Henry (Judson) Spencer certainly gives his place of birth as Conisbrough on later census's and Alice was still alive in 1861 - another mystery - I didn't know of the existance of Johns son - so he can be added now

All the best

Debbie

Hello Debbie,
The only  Spencer at Conisboro 1851 according to the Doncaster Indexes.
1851 Census Conisboro (Clifton)
2346/1 page 238
James Roberts 67 Farmer employing 8 Ag labs born Carcroft
Sarah wife 61 born Edlington
Joseph son Un 40  Edlington
Mary dau Un 32     Clifton
John S son Un 25  Clifton
Frances A Spencer grand daughter  aged 5  born Conisboro

A reminder for the ones yesterday, 1841 Census ages above 15 are rounded down to the nearest five.
Bet you knew that.

I once worked with a man called Raymond Spencer from Conisboro about 1968 ish an electrician not a farmer.

Regards Oly.

Hi DebbieG,
I have just come across your interest in the SPENCER family of Conisbrough and thought I would make contact. John Spink SPENCER was my 2xGreat Grandfather.

I do have information on the SPENCER family if you would be interested? I know your post was a while ago but I am hoping that we might both have info for each other and who knows, we might even be related!

I hope you get this message and I look forward to "chatting".
Best wishes
