[kentishlady]

Can anyone find for me, John Axford and Lydia Axford, both born Wiltshire in the 1841 British Census.
He was born abt 1804 and she abt 1806/7
I believe they would have been in Leicester in 1841, due to the birth places of their children, which were

They would  have had,

Edith born abt 1826 at Marlborough Wiltshire,
Mary born abt 1828 at Lambeth, Surrey
John born abt 1834 at Leicester
Lydia born abt 1837 at Leicester
Benjamin born abt 1840 at Leicester

many thanks to any one who can help

Hmmm. Tricky.  There are a few candidates for John scattered around.  I see that he was a "strimmer" in 1851.  Can you elaborate on his occupation so we can narrow things down a bit?

To try and slim it down in the hunt, John Axford was a Skinner in the leather industry
