I am really struggling to find Lewis Hinchliffe born in October 1849 on the 1861 census. His mother died in 1857 so he can't be with her and I think his grandmother had died by then as well.
He was born Paddock Huddersfield (no father on his birth cert tho when he marries he names his father as Joseph) and I have found him on all other census. In 1871 he was in Grimsby and married the following year.
If anyone can find him at 11 to fill in this gap would be most grateful.

What was his Mothers name??
Do you have them on 1851 if so where were they.
-
Was his mum called Caroline?
-
If it was caroline could this be them on 1851
Joseph Hinchcliffe 25
Caroline 21
Samuel 2
LEWIS 3
Stead 4months
Will give location etc if correct family
-
That's the one I was wondering about and would explain the Joseph :)

Hi,
Could be the same family in 1861?
Rg09/3312 72/22
Includes a Joseph, Caroline ,Sam ,Stead (on image) and interestingly, a Louisa( transcription but hard to read) who is a Coal Miner!

Well spotted Cathy :)
My search on a well known site spells them as Hinchliff - no 'e' and the image has Lewesa as the 14 year old coal miner but definitely shown as a daughter . Poor thing. Also they went in for different Christian names as the newest addition is called Sutcliff Hinchcliff - what a mouthful at school!!

Hello
His mother was Charlotte. I have him on all other census years it's just the 1861 I am missing.
In 1851 he was in Huddersfield with his mother, two of her siblings and his grandmother.
-
Well even if we all have the wrong family I enjoyed finding Sutcliff Hinchcliff :) :) Off to have another look ;D

I posted this query some years ago but am still missing this boy in the 1861 census.
He was Lewis Hinchliffe born 1849 Huddersfield. His mother Charlotte was unmarried and had died by 1861.
I have all other census info, marriage, children etc it's just 1861 to complete the puzzle.
Thanks to anyone willing to have a look.
