1841 look up for Ledson Romans please
« on: Monday 13 February 06 16:20 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for any help with the 41 census.

Ledson Romans born 1778 in Ricall.

He married Rebecca Clayton in Wistow 1803.

I think I have his death in 1844 at Selby.

I would really love to find him in the 41 census.

Any help would be great.

Hello Angela

Had a look through Selby and Wistow without success, I did find

1841 Census Selby HO107/1281/12
page 22b Rokers
Thomas Romans    60 Farmer
Mary           "      59
John           "       25
Rebecca      "       25
Thomas       "       20

/13 page 26a Bond Gates
William Romans 35 Butcher
Ledson may be in Selby, some parts of my census pages are not readable.
Ages over 15 in the 1841 census are rounded down to the lower 0 or 5. Sometimes the enumerator forgets.
All born Yorkshire

Oly

Thanks for looking.  The William one looks promising, Ledson had a son called William approx 1804, so ages are similar.

Thomas I think is related, have found him on family search with same grandparents.

Thanks again
