1851/1861 look up please PLAYER
« on: Friday 25 January 08 20:43 GMT (UK) »
Hi all

Would anyone be able to find the family of Ellen Player b.1851 in Weston in gordano, Somerset? Her mother was Sarah Player b. 1826.

I'm hoping to find the name of Ellen's father and any brothers and sisters. I don't know Sarah's maiden name, so don't know if she can be traced back to the 1841 census? I'm assuming she married in the late 1840s or 1850.

Any help much appreciated
Moss

Hi Sue,
        Found no trace of her at all. Is it possible she died. Still looking though.

Hi Sues

Player was Sarah's married name, I don't know what she was before. I was hoping if we could find Ellen in the 1861, (she would be 10) it would show her father and then maybe I could find a marriage record for him and Sarah.

Ellen married John Copestake in Bristol in 1873 but the 1881 census shows Sarah still living in Weston
