1851 census look up please: LUTON
« on: Tuesday 04 January 05 14:14 GMT (UK) »
I'm looking for a reverend John Donne, who I know died in Luton in 1857. He had a wife called Dinah.

If anyone can trace him and his family there in the 1851 census, I would be very grateful.

Hi

Can't help with the 1851 census at the moment but have you checked out the Bedfordshire Genealogy link below?

http://www.bedfordshire.gov.uk/archive

Then search the catalogue or you can go straight to this link by clicking on the following:

Do a names search for Donne, John. You will find there are several references to him there.

I expect you should be able to get photo-copies of any that interest you.

Regards

criggy
