1841 Berkshire Census Lookup Please - John Wicks
« on: Tuesday 25 April 06 06:56 BST (UK) »
I am hoping someone can help me find John Wicks in the 1841 Berkshire Census. John was born c1835 in West Hanney, Berkshire. I believe that his mother's name was Mary.
Any information would be much appreciated.
 Kind Regards

1841 Census, West Hanney Village, Berkshire

William Wicks    64    Retail Brewer    b. Berkshire
Mary                  38                                     "
James                29                                     "
Charles              15                                     "
Emmeline            12                                    "
Sophia                 9                                      "
John                     7                                      "



Elsewhere in the Village:

Charles Wicks      30  Baker                         "
Albert                   26                                    "
No surname or Ditto for Albert, but transcribers of census record him as Wicks.
These two, while probably related to the family above, are probably not of it, as that would mean there were two Charles.

Another comment  -  William, aged 64, was probably married before, as James is too old to be Mary's child.  You might try www.familysearch.org for an earlier marriage.
