Francis Clarke census look up please
« on: Tuesday 27 March 07 10:25 BST (UK) »
Hi all.

I'm having no luck what so ever trying to find Francis.
All I've found for him is the 1881 census which gives him & his family in London.
His line tells me that in 1881 he was 25, born Sheffield, York & was a comedian.
Trying to find him pre 1881 is proving to be anything but a joke!

The only other thing I found for him was his marriage in 1878 to Charlotte Wales, which was in London also. I've only just found the marriage registration, so I haven't got his fathers name yet.

Can you guys help me find him on the 1861/71 census' please?

Thanks very much in hope!

Once again Fizzy, great work!

Also, thanks for the tip on Francis/Frank. It could prove to be invaluable on other sides of the family.

Have as good a day as i'm now having!
