1861 census James Wilks LOOKUP COMPLETE

[Geoff of Devon]

Ruth,
Here is Caroline below in 1851. Shame she isn't with the rest of the family in 1861.

It seems that there can be a misspelling of Looker as Loker, as Arthur is Loker in 1851 and Looker in 1861. Please quote for all future lookups!!! Also get a FULL census lookup from the ref below, just in case!

ms is his trade!

So, Mary Ann Loker may have been born Mary Ann Wilks, James elder sister? It also shows the Loker/Looker moved from Dunmow to Epping at similar times?
There are no Looker/Loker in Epping 1861!

Good hunting and luck,
