FEENEY - birth place help required please
« on: Saturday 12 January 08 14:41 GMT (UK) »
I am having problems working out where Edward and Ellen Feeney were born on the 1841 census. They were at the time resident in Leeds Yorkshire.

As you can see the Feeneys and the Kellys lived together. John Feeney was the head of the household and born in Ireland along with James aged 20, Mary aged 15, Edward aged 14 is one squiggle I cant make out but it is different from the other squiggles on the page, Lawrence aged 10 again in Ireland then Ellen aged 5 another type of squiggle.

Can anyone work it out please.

Thanks Arronroots.

Am I right in thinking that Edward wasn't born in Ireland but also wasn't born in Yorkshire either?

Regards
Pauline

Hi Pauline

That's what the enumerator believed - yes!

Not at all helpful, is it?  Hopefully he is on later censuses and you can work out where he was born?

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)
