COLLIER - Census look up please..
« on: Wednesday 31 January 07 12:47 GMT (UK) »
Is there SKS who could please look up a George COLLIER born 1818/1819 in Cheadle?
Ideally I'd like to find him in the 1851 and 1861...   
I've found reference to him on the 1851 Index as being in Cheadle - Alton in 1851 if that helps any...
Many thanks  :)

Thanks very much for this Geoff..well at least it confirms my suspicions that he was Catholic if he was playing the organ in a Catholic church! 
I was vainly hoping he'd still be at home with his parents so I could tie him in with the next generation.

Thanks again for your speedy help.  It really is much appreciated.

Oooo... now it could well be!   
Thanks very much for this Jim...  Rootschatters are wonderful at looking up things above and beyond the original request!   
Luckily I have some early Parish Registers for Alton, so I might be able to check this couple out.

I can't figure why George isn't showing up on the 1861.  He's on the 1881 in Alton aged 62 and a widower but he's giving his birthplace as Cheadle, which is a bit at odds with him giving Alton in 1851.
 
Maybe he's disappeared down the black hole along with all those other missing ancestors of mine!

Many thanks again for your helpful lookup :)
kind regards

An interesting looking bunch...and what's more there's a marriage on Staffs BMD of a William Collier to an Elizabeth Rushton ... Rushton is another one of my ancestral families....

Looks like I might be heading into one of those genealogical loops again!!

Thanks for your help again Jim.  It is sincerely appreciated.

kind regards
