Hi again,

Can somebody please look for the same family on the 1841, 1861 and 1871 censuses please? And maybe any other information sources they may be found on.

Thanks a lot

Jim

Hi,

Thanks a lot John - thats superb stuff!
Wherever it is in the country, you always seem to come up trumps!

Do you think you could have a look for a few more for me please?

1841 Census for Williams grandmother Ann Wiggett who is living with them in 1851

Thanks again

Jim

Thanks Jim,  wonder if I could make a living out of doing this ?

do you have 1881 ?

Just found Sarah Wiggett, age 74 Widow, mother in law, to family headed by John Moore with wife Ann age 51.

& there's William & Harriett Wiggett with a whole raft of kids. 

FreeBMD gives me death index of John Wiggett in Mitford RD in March 1877 vol 4b page 193 - at age 75

time for some lunch I think - get back to this later - where's everyone else ?

Hi,

Well i'll say i have 1881 but really its only on the familysearch website!  :)

I never thought of looking for the mother on there once i saw the father (John) wasn't!!

Thanks for finding.

Regards
Jim
