Good afternoon,

If anyone could supply the 1841 and 1861 census details for the following household I would be very grateful.

Francis HOLMES b.Metherington 1791
Rebecca (wife) b. Bardney 1802

They had the following children that I know of:

Mary b. Branston 1837
John b. Branston 1840
Eliza b. Branston 1848.

By 1861 Rebecca was a widow, so would probably be living on her own, or maybe with a child.

Many thanks for any help !

Nick
