Could some one please look-up the 1841/1851 Census for Charles Harris born about 1792 in Thorley Bishop Stortford. He married Elizabeth Martin in 1816 in Thorley. Thanks.

Hi   John


That certainly looks like them, yes there occupation is a bit of a puzzle, I wonder if it could be Malt Maker, Thanks.

Hello jericho,

Yes, Malt Maker makes more sense. This fellow put the cross from his 't' through both the last 2 letters

Hi Jericho,

The IGI for Thorley records the following christenings for the Harris trio   ...   William 06 Dec 1824  -  John 02 Mar 1828  -  Ephraim  20 Feb 1831.

I will check the Thorley PRs for the marriage entry of Charles and Elizabeth 18 Jun 1816 to see whether any further information is given.


Regards   ...   Peter

Hi Peter


I would really appreciate the other family details if that isn't too much trouble, for James and William,  and their children. Thanks for your help.
