Title: 1841/1851 census-Rowlandson
Post by: timaussie on Monday 06 August 07 04:26 BST (UK)

I am looking for a Rowlandson family that may still be living at farm properties of Hallgarth and/or Sparrowmire in parish of Kendel at the time of early census. The properties were just north of Kendel but seem to have been consumed today by expanding Kendel. I am not sure if a record search by place is possible to this surname.
Any help much appreciated.
Tim

Tim, there appear to be 10 Rowlandsons living in Kendal in 1951 and 34 in 1841.

It would be easier to check if you could give some given names please.

Hi Dee,
I am going on some information given to me that the Rowlandsons I am interested in owned these properties around 1750s and hoping decendents might still live there 100 years later (1841/1851c). I think the task is too time consuming for others to check census records of so many Rowlandsons.
Thanks,Tim
