1851/1871 census lookup Burns Kingswinford
« on: Tuesday 30 November 04 14:57 GMT (UK) »
I have my family in 1861 living in Brettle Lane Stourbridge Kingswinford.

Henry Burns Head age 29
Elizabeth      Wife  age 26
Charles         Son   age 5
Sarah A        Daur   age 3
George         Son    age 9months
William Burns Father  age 52

I am afraid I do not have any birthplaces other than Charles Burns being born in Stourbridge and when he married in 1883 he gave occupation as a Miller and  his father's occupation as a Glass Cutter.
Could anyone help me to find them in 1851 or 1871?
Any help would be appreciated

Many Thanks

Hi
Looks like the parents could of died before 1871, found these children.

Sarah A Burns ,13, Inmate, Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England
Kingswinford, Staffordshire 
RG10/3030 Folio:    129  Page:    10

and this looks like William Charles and sister Dorothy in 1871. I cannot check the original images as they are not yet released on ancestry.

Dorothy Burns 8  Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England Niece  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
William Charles Burns 15  Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England Nephew  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
Alice Davis 30  Hanley, Staffordshire, England Wife  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
Charles Davis 7 months  Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England Son  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
Emily Davis 3  Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England Daughter  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
George Davis 8  Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England Son  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
Goerge Davis 35  Salop, Shropshire, England Head  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
Mary Ann Davis 11  Shropshire, England Daughter  Kingswinford  Staffordshire   
Sarah Ann Davis 5  Kingswinford, Staffordshire, England Daughter  Kingswinford  Staffordshire 

this could be Elizabeths death

Burns, Elizabeth, Age at death:    31
Quarter:    December
Year:    1867
District:    Stourbridge 
County:    Shropshire Staffordshire Warwickshire West Midlands Worcestershire
Volume:    6c
Page:    93

Hi Nicky
Many Thanks for your help. I think this may be my Sarah A Burns and I will now do some further research on this Davis family.
I will also follow up on the death index for Elizabeth Burns.
Thank you for giving me some more leads to follow.

Best Regards
