Census Lookup 1841/1851 - MAJOR
« on: Monday 27 December 04 21:25 GMT (UK) »
Hi!

I was hoping someone might be able to trace Robert and
Martha Major in the Census returns for 1841 & 1851.

I do not have much information on them, except that
Robert was a farmer and Martha was probably born in
1793. They married in Woodhall Spa in 1815 and had
several children in Horsington, although by the time of
the census it is possible that they were living near Brigg.

I am also looking for Francis and Sarah Major in the 1841
Census.They married in Bottesford in 1839. Francis was
the son of Robert and Martha and was probably born in
1818. I think Sarah was the daughter of William and
Elizabeth Hall and was born in Bottesford in 1816.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
