1851/61/71 Census Lookup - Waverton - modified
« on: Tuesday 30 November 04 13:41 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I'm trying to track down a Thomas Wightwick who was station master at Waverton for a time before his death in 1874. Would it be possible for someone to see if he is listed in the census. His wife Emma died in 1865.

Regards

Andy
