Hi all
I may have pressed the wrong button but I am after the 1861 census for Cambridgeshire.
Thanks

Hi Ruskie
Thank you for that. I was interested to know if she was with a relative but the names don't match any relatives I have.

Hi.
George on the 1841 census Needham and Jane have 2 children noted
with the surname Green who are more than likely Jane's children.
The one named Betsy (Elizabeth on the 1851) marries John Smith in 1852.
Therefore it seems likely Jane is the Mother-in-Law of John Smith on the 1861.

Looking at the same family John and Betsey in the 1871 Census for Thorney
Jane is noted as Mother-in-law.

Hello Sandy!
Great work - I suspected they must be related even though Jane was given the vague title of "Vistor" on the census.

Hi Ruskie. :)
You did the leg work, I just trawled.
Happy New Year. :)

Happy New Year to you too Sandy. I disagree though - you did all the detective work. Jane took about 2 seconds to find in the 1861 census. ;D

To Sandy
What surname is Jane under in the 1871 census? I have found that Jane had 6 children from 1826 to 1840 to a William Green at Deeping. I can't find a marriage to William.
Thanks

The census said Foster.
There is this marriage on the Northants Marriage Indexes.

Hi Sandy
That certainly looks like the marriage. Jane was born in Northamptonshire so I would say this is the one.
Thank you
