1871 look up please

Hmmmm I have them too in 1861, Gurnsey again.  So is the father a different man to the other Grimsey who died?

Thats prob why I can't find a marriage for Susannah and George - cos she married John! lol

Ignore me - lost the plot, John is a differnt man - she still married George (I was searching for William....grrrr, totally confused!

George Grimsey married Susannah Sarward in the district of Lexden in December 1/4 1846 (12, 253)

Hang on - are you getting your k's in a t?

the dad should be George Grimsey - he was the one in the original post.

Who are William and John?

[alllegs]

I made William up and John is Mr Chapman with them in 1861...... 

[lizdb]

Aha
The John Chapman in the Ancestry index for this 1861 entry is actually the household above - is that who you were thinknig of?

Susannah is just down as married - no hubby listed - so I guess George was at sea.

(Bit like us here - all at sea!!)

(Sorry I put on the reference and then went back to fill in the details cos I didnt want to waste anyones time looking for the same thing, but of course I should have put who it was I'd found!!)

[alllegs]

Ah worry not - I'm generally confused about everything!

Susannah is def married to Geo Grimsey - see marriage record on page 2

1851
HO107 1782 112 26
High Street Brightlingsea

Susan Grimsey 30 mar bn Norfolk Winterton
Eliza 1 bn Brightlingsea

indexed Greinsey

(George is NEVER at home! How did they have such a big family)

[alllegs]

LOL

And now Susan(nah) can't decide where she was born....

[lizdb]

I guess if Edmund E and William H are at sea as much as George G (aka john/William!!)  then that is why they cant be found on previous censuses

My BRAIN HURTS!!!  Seriously thanks for what you have found. Liz on my database of Newhaveners I have a G or J Edmonds b Littlehampton 1822, joined LB&SCR as a Seaman @25/-pw in 1871, transferred to Newhaven 9/1882, made up to Bosun 7/1883, still same 1/1884 then an undated pencil note "Died". Pete
