Hi

I have found this family in 1871.  Some of the details match but some don't.  This is the nearest I could come up with:

32 Paradise Walk, Chelsea

Eath EDWARD head married 40 labourer b.Chelsea
Catherine wife 30 b,Camberwell Surrey
Catherine dau 13 b.Chelsea
Hannah dau 10 b.Chelsea
Daniel son 7 b.Chelsea
Charlotte dau 2 b.Chelsea

Where did you get the birth and marriage dates from if you are having trouble finding them? 

Do you have the family in any census?

Casalguidi

Thank you again but this is not my Edwards

Hi

Am hazarding a guess that you got Charlotte and Waine from the 1881 census in Battersea with their mother Catherine - it says Daniel NOT Waine

Your next step ............. probably to locate them in the 1861 census

It would appear that Ephraim EDWARDS was born Buckingham ............ meaning Buckinghamshire?  Not London if the 1881 and 1891 census details are correct.  Maybe his wife gave the info for the 1871 and wasn't sure of the truth?

Good luck

.............Daniel Beagley is Catherine Elizabeth Edward Nee Beagley'S father

Dear playfull_mars

Do you have a print out of the 1881 Census, because what casalguidi was I believe trying to point out is that "Waine" is a transcription error and the actual name on looking at the Scanned census is more than likely Daniel.

I also note that on 1881 census Catherine is put down is a widow.  This is obvoiusly incorrect as you say Ephraim died about 1893.

There is a Daniel EDWARD living with his wife Caroline and son Daniel in Battersea on the 1891 census.

Also the 1871 census casalguidi found is also more than likely correct one and the Elder daughters were not living with their mother in 1881. 

As you go back you will find discrepancies in ages happen all to often. 

If you wish someone from Rootschat to search earlier census/parish records.  I suggest you place a request on the London lookup request page.

Cheers

Hi playfull_mars

Are you doing a One Name Study on the entire family name or are you just after information on these particular individuals? 

If the latter is the case I will gladly move the post for you to a more relevant board which may help to generate a response for you.   Please let me have any information on possible locations (County etc.) so I can place it in the right board.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes

Hi there, Seems all that tried to help me with my Edwards, were correct. The census is transcribed wrongly and I appologise to all that was willing to help. It wasn't an easy error to see and I was frustrated.
http://
Please can you help me with the parents of Ephraim Edwards b 1826-6 Buckinghamshire England.  Ephraim Edwards and catherine beagley,married ,19 Oct 1846  Kensington, London, England. and died, Sep 1893, London Surrey, England.  I beleive the father going by Ephraims birth certificate is john. I need to find his birth dates and the sibblings of Ephraim so that I can go further. I have the 1881, 1891 1901 census on
and now see that there was a Daniel, b. 1863 Chelsea, Middlesex, England.  many thanks to all that helped and i ask for help finding the family of Ephraim and his sibblings.
cheers marie.

Hi Marie

You also have the family in the 1871 census - see my posting above so it might be a good idea to request a look up of the 1861 census.  I do believe that the London census is most easily searched by address so you could try the address given in the 1871 census (above), any address given on an earlier child's birth certificate or any address given on the parents marriage certificate.  The same goes for 1851 census.

The father's name looks like Eath on the 1871 census but this is probably because the census enumerator made an error - everything else looks ok!  It would be a good idea to post the 1871 census details when requesting a look up of earlier census.

Glad you got it sorted and good luck!

Don't know if this is still an active thread, but I came across this from the 1841 census, seems close to what you're looking for but birth location is listed as Middlesex, not Bucks.

Name: Ephraim Edwards
Age: 14
Estimated birth year: abt 1827
Gender: Male
Where born: Middlesex, England
Civil parish: Chelsea

Also suggest you try different spelling variations, I've seen it spelt Ephram, Epharaim, Ephriam, etc
