1861 Census lookup please
« on: Tuesday 18 November 08 17:26 GMT (UK) »
Is it possible for someone to check the 1861 census for a Samuel Chapman, born 1819 Kelshall Hertfordshire.  I have found an entry for man of the same name in the St. Faiths district of Middlesex.

Hope someone can help.

Do you have any other details about him as Chapman is such a common surname , his occupation perhaps etc  ???

Sorry no. But Kelshall is a tiny village (even now) in Hertfordshire so if the census shows his birth place i would be fairly sure of it being my ancestor

I can find no sign of him in 1861 or using the historical search on Ancestry.


Have you found him on any other census's if so can you please post the reference so that I can look.

He's on the 1851 with wife and daughter.

I can't find any of them in 1861 but some parts of the 1861 census in London are missing

I've think I found him in 1851 with a wife Charlotte & daughter Charlotte.

What are the census reference numbers for the man you have found in 1861, ie piece, folio and page

It was on Genes Reunited so it was a longshot that someone on here would be able to find it ??? ???

He is really causing us a puzzle.

His daughter died after the 1851 census, his wife in 1852 and his son James is living in Kelshall Hertfordshire with grandparents on the 1861 but Samuel just seems to have disappeared. Cannot even find a death for him, well not without ordering loads of certificates!!!!
