Census / BMD Lookup pls
« on: Tuesday 22 August 06 12:53 BST (UK) »
Hi - Can anyone help me trace a Lam ? Burton born Atherstone Warwickshire 1834 please. I see the family in the 1841 Census in Grendon Warwickshire - surname is mistyped as Barton -

Ann 1806 - Not of County
John 1806 Noc
John 1840 Warwickshire
Lam 1834 Noc
Luke 1837 Warwickshire
Mary 1831 Noc 

I believe the parents passed away as Luke was in the Atherstone Poor house in 1851 with a younger sister Ann.

The only reference I can see in the 1851 Census for Lam ( is this a real name ? ) is a Jam ? Burton bn 1834 in Atherstone - shown as a visitor in county.

After that the trail is cold - Any help or suggestions please ?

Also - can anyone spot John Burton  brn 1840 and Mary Burton brn 1831 after the 1841 Census ??

Thanks for your help

Duncan

Most of those births are going to be before civil registration, You'll be looking at parish records.


Luke & john may appear in the gro indexes and you should be looking here for the ref.

Mary is a needle in a haystack, I'm afraid, given that we don't even know where she was born. 

I see John was christened in Grendon according to the IGI, so presumably born there. I can't see any John Burton born Grendon after 1840   :-\
