Hi! Can anyone help me? I have hit a brick wall trying to find my great great great grandfather.
According to the 1871, 1881 and 1891 census he was born in Birmingham, Warwickshire c. 1846 i.e. he would be about 5 years old in the 1851 census.
His name was Thomas Burkes but the Burkes is spelled differently in each census return I have checked - Burke in 1871; Berks in 1881 and Burkes in 1891.
I know nothing about his parents or siblings - if you can find any trace of him on the 1851 census and give me any information about who he was living with then, I would be very grateful.
Thanks in advance
