Title: 1861 Look-up Please, Rachel Jane WEAVER - Southampton Area
Post by: Duck on Thursday 28 September 17 13:10 BST (UK)
Can some kind soul with better lookup skills than I, try and find Rachel Jane Weaver in the 1861 census

Rachel was baptised in the Shirley district of Southampton in 1854, father John Henry Weaver, mother Jane nee Ray.  Her birth was registered in South Stoneham 1854

She married in 1871, Shirley, Southampton to William Elderfield.

I have her in the 1871 onwards

Thank you

Simon

Many thanks for looking, I don't know what to make of the Spiller surname.  Suzard, I'd seen the census return you found and dismissed it as mothers maiden name for the child is different

Once again, many thanks for taking the time to having a look

Kind regards

Simon

According to the 1871 census, John Henry was born 1822 in Thrillworth, Somerset; his wife Jane was born 1829 in Romsey, Hampshire.

So, why can't I find him in 1861?

I wonder if the 'Spiller' 1861 is the correct family but Jane was actually staying with her parents and looking after Mary Jane as a Nurse child.  She did have a nurse child on the 1871 census.  Places of birth almost tie in
