Karenlee's Scavenger Hunt...Everyone Welcome To Join In.

[Tephra]

Hello again and welcome to this weeks Scavenger Hunt.   And it's Karenlee's turn to get your grey matter working overtime........and this one is a dooooooozy.   It looks relatively simple on first viewing, but I urge you to look again and then get your thinking caps on.   Karen has promised she will supply a very large bottle of Champagne to whoever solves this problem for her.........well, she didn't actually say that, but I know she'll blow a very large kiss in your direction.........   

Good Luck and Good Hunting

Hello Fellow Scavenger Hunters.

I need some help with the 1861 Census, and 2 families that have remained elusive for quite a long while.  Here's hoping that one of you can track them down .....

1)  The family of George and Sarah ( nee WHITE ) GREEN who married 31st May 1846. George is a gardener born 1818- ish  Brentford Middlesex and Sarah born 1825 -ish Southampton Hampshire.  Known children are George William 1847, Emily 1848, Edmund 1851, Sarah 1852, Louisa 1859,  Emma 1862, Isabella 1865.  Possible children are Henry and Jane Elizabeth 1857 and Harry 1863.  I have them on all the other Census as follows :-

1851 Turnpike Road Hayes Middlesex

1871 5 Oldham Terrace Acton Middlesex

1881 Mill Hill Grove 7 Poltimore Terrace Acton Middlesex

1891 9 Poltimore Terrace Acton Middlesex

1901 14 Winchester Terrace Acton Middlesex


2) The family of Edward Charles James SHAW, Surgeon, born about 1808 in London,  and which ever wife he had with him in 1861.

( He is my serial bigamist........ first marries Elizabeth Sarah TIMS 1830, Surrey,  Then came Mary Ann EDWARDS in 1831, Stepney, but he went to jail for a while for marrying her while still married to Elizabeth.  Then came Elizabeth Mary Ann TREWEN in 1834, but no proof yet that the first Elizabeth is dead.  Then there's Ann BROWN 1855 Derbyshire. )

I know that he had one son with Ann ....  Edward William SHAW born Staffordshire 1856.

I have Edward on 2 census only....

1851 Maze Pond St Olave Southwark

1871 Boreham Moor Barnet Hertfordshire
 
I know that he died in 1877 in Barnet.  I have his wife Ann on the 1881, 1891 and 1901. I have his son Edward William in 1891 as a widow with a young daughter, who I found still with Ann SHAW in 1901.


CONFUSED.... good, so am I.   

Good luck

Karenlee

Hi Deb, I told Karen there would probably be three pages (at least) of information to wade through when she got up..............so you'd better get stuck in

Just in case they had already moved to 5, Oldham Terrace by 1861 I thought I would check. The enumeration district shown begins at 6, Oldham Terrace! Page missing?
