1841 (or 51) Census FINCHINGFIELD lookup please

[Dizzy Escape]

I have a Joseph LEVITT / LEVETT (b. c.1794) of Finchingfield who married a Sophia (b. c.1798); their son Joseph (b. 1837) married Emma RIDGWELL (b.1840) in 1859 and they had a daughter, Julia LEVETT, (b.1862) who married George DOE (b. 1862), the son of William DOE and Ann STOCK, also of Finchingfield, in 1883.  I was wondering whether the Levitts, Does, or Ridgewells turn up in the 1841 or 51 Census.  Many thanks.

Hi Geoff.

I was interested to see that you were able to look up Essex marriages in some sort of index.  I wasn't aware that there was a published marriage index for the county.  Could you tell us where the data came from - perhaps it could break down all sort of brickwalls for me!

Many thanks
Ruth

[Geoff of Devon]

Hi Ruth,
I use Kevan's online index which I think is Boyd's marriage index.
The link is:

Good hunting,
Geoff.

Thanks Geoff.  I'm off to check it out!

Dear Geoff,

I am so sorry to have been so slow in responding to your very full response to my look up request.  I've been away from the computer for a while.  Thank you for all this marvellous material which I shall work through.  It looks very promising.  Best wishes for 2005, Emma
