I am trying to find out where the family of Cornelius Glover were at the time of the 1871 census. I have the census entries for 1861, and 1881, but cannot find them anywhere in 1871. Family members at that time were as follows:
Cornelius Glover b:1830
wife Mary Ann
children
Charles b:1857
Annie b: 1860
Emma Elizabeth b: 1862
Alice Kate b:1864
Walter Robert b:1866
Elizabeth b:1868
Ada Grace b:1870
In 1861 they were living in Gillingham, and by 1881 they were in Chatham, but any clues as to where they were in between would be gratefully accepted.
Many thanks

Hi Lisa
They are in Gillingham - try searching for Ada Grace (forenames) born 1870 Gillingham ............... RG10/912 folio 32 page 6.
If you need the full details just should and I, or somebody else, will post them for you.

Thank you for that - but I am obviously doing something wrong - have tried searching with ALL the names individually and in combinations and have also tried the census reference and keep drawing a blank!
