1851 Census Lookup Please - WATTS
« on: Monday 04 October 04 19:41 BST (UK) »
Hi.  I was wondering if someone could look up the following on the 1851 Somerset Census, please?

James WATTS - Head
Maria WATTS - Wife
Emma Louisa WATTS - Daughter - approx. 14 years old

I'm afraid I don't have ages for James and his wife Maria.  Emma was most probably born in Brighton, Sussex.  James' occupation is possibly a gardener, as he was described as such on Emma's marriage certificate of 1856.

Thanks in advance! :)

Hi,

Looking in Long Ashton for the 1851 shows only this family Watts. 

WATTS Sarah Widow/er 49 Widow/er Painter & Plasterer Bristol
William 22 Painter & Plasterer Flax Bourton
Thomas 19 Blacksmith Flax Bourton
Samuel 14 Long Ashton, Som.
Sarah 12 Long Ashton, Som.
Mary Ann 11 Scholar Long Ashton, Som.
John 10 Scholar Long Ashton, Som.
Alfred 8 Scholar Long Ashton, Som.
YEO Joseph Lodger Widow/er 60 Carpenter Lynham

I checked the whole of the piece in which Long Ashton is found (HO 107 / 1946) and there were no family groups of James, Maria and Emma
