1841 census lookup

[bh1]

Can anyone give me the details for John and Elizabeth Tame from the 1841 census.  They were around 25 years old and probably living in Grove/Wantage.

They had a daughter Sophia in 1841, but I think she may have been born just after the census.

Many thanks

Thanks Tati,

It certainly looks like the right family.  The unknown female could be Sophia.

I was not aware of a Mary though.  Is her surname Tame the same as the others?

Thanks to everyone for all the information.

Sue,

Thanks for your offer to look anything up in the Parish Records.  I wonder if you would be good enough to check on 2 things for me.

Firstly I would like to get hold of the birth certificate for John's son Charles.  I know he was born around 1845, but I cannot tell which of the entries in  Freebmd is for him as there are several possibilities.  If you can find him in the parish records it might confirm which entry is the right one.

Secondly,  I would be interested in the marriage details for John's father and mother, Josiah and, I believe, Susannah.  Any details that will take me further back would be wonderful.

Thanks very much

Barbara
