1871 census SOAMES
« on: Monday 24 January 05 21:01 GMT (UK) »
hi, I'm now trying to trace the parents of Herbert W Soames born c1864 in Norwich.
In 1881 he was living with his grandparents in Norwich. His mother was possibly named Elizabeth / Sophia / or Catherine.
Any help in tracing his parents would be much appreciated.
Regards

Hello,

This might be him in 1871? at Wood Cawston Road (?) Aylsham.

Maria soame  58  widowCawston, Norfolk, England Head  Annuitant
Sophia soame  35  Aylsham, Norfolk, England Daughter 
Joseph soame  17  Aylsham, Norfolk, England Son Bricklayer
Herbert soame  6  Aylsham, Norfolk, England Grandson   
William soame  31  Aylsham, Norfolk, England Son  Blacksmith
Jane soame  29  Cawston, Norfolk, England Wife 
William soame  8  Cawston, Norfolk, England Grandson 
Alfred S soame  6  Cawston, Norfolk, England Grandson 
Henry soame  1  Aylsham, Norfolk, England Grandson   
Katharine soame  3 weeks  Aylsham, Norfolk, England Granddaughter 
Joseph Welden 52  Swanton Abbot, Norfolk, England Lodger 

This is the order they appear on the census.
The marital status of Sophia is a bit unclear but think it could be unmarried (but guessing)

RG10/1803
Folio:    39 
Page:    22

Since you found him with grandparents in 1881 I guess you can tell if this is him or not.

Since this is a little complicated and you want an image of the actual census record, PM me with your email.

Hope that helps
