Hi

Are you asking for information about him?

If so - when was he born and do you have his parents names?

What census info do you already have about him?

So you know quite a lot about him! It would be helpful if you caould put a brief summary of what you already know in your initial post.

I assume that yuo are wanting to go backwards from him.
Here is the first step:

Possible Marriage:

jul/Aug/Sep 1865
John Deacon
also on page Selina Hurst

MArket harboro ref 7a 32

(could have been a double wedding as also an Elizabeth Hurst on the same page. I wonder if she had a sister?)

[lizdb]

This could be the family in 1871, though Selina is calling herself Jane

268 Belgrave gate Leicester

John 27 Lime burner bn Leicester
Jane wife 25
James 5
George 4
Tom 3
