Good afternoon,

To complete my previous post, I would be grateful if anyone would be kind enough to supply the 1861 & 1871 Census details for:

John VEAL b. c1820 Claxby Pluckacre.  Occ. Ag. Lab.
Susan (wife), b. 1819 Stickford.

They married in 1840 and had 5 children by the 1851 Census:
- Mary A. b. Friskney 1841
- Eliza b. Friskney 1843
- John b. East Kirkby 1844
- Jarvis b. East Kirkby 1846
- Letitia b. East Kirkby 1849

In 1881 Susan is a widow living with 2 further children:
- Martha J. b. c1854
- Mark b. c1863 (I cannot find him in Free Bmd's - thte only one around there seems to be possibly a Mary VEAL, but the 1881 records definitely states a son of 17)
Both born East Kirkby.

Susan and children are still living in East Kirkby in 1881

I think John VEAL probably died in 1863 (2ndQ), so would figure in 1861 but not in 1871 when Susan would be a widow.

Many thanks for any help.

Nick

1861
East Kirkby
John VEAL 42 AgLab, Claxby
Susanna 42 Stickford
Gervase 14
Letitia 11
William 9
Martha 6
Gervase Davey (VEAL) 4
Susanna 10m
Others born East Kirkby
RG9/2372/45/11

I wonder if the other Jarvis/Gervase died - I have seen the names interchanged before - or the same lad with the wrong age?

Or ...
Births Mar 1857 
VEAL    Joseph Davey        Spilsby    7a   496

A few VEAL burials at East Kirkby
John 11 Jan 1881 (62)
Susan 6 Sept 1887 (68)
Letitia 25 Feb 1849 (8m) I noticed there were two of them in the birth index.
