1851 census look-up in Birstall SMITH - COMPLETED
« on: Tuesday 30 September 08 00:58 BST (UK) »
Could I get a look-up in the 1851 census for Birstall please

I am looking for a Charles Smith and his wife Sophia
Charles born about 1790-95
I am not sure if there would be any children still at home

Many thanks

Hi Mum44

Yes it does help thank you very much
You have also found two other children I didn't know about, I thought Richard was their last one

Much appreciated

Hi

Thanks very much for the 1841 on Charles and Sophia
I thought I already had them in 1841 but as it so happens I did not so it will be very helpful
 
I am working on several families at once and one of the others the wife is also a Sophia

Thanks
SC
