1851 Census - Cording, Somerset
« on: Monday 21 February 05 06:09 GMT (UK) »
I am looking for Edward and Mellony Cording on the 1851 census, as I want to check who else was in the household, particularly the servants.  They should be at Carhampton.  They were there on both the 1841 and 1861 census.  Mellony is sometimes spelt Mellany.  They were probably both around the age of 50......The 1841 census lists their age as 35 for them both, the 1861 says 60 for him and 59 for her.
Any help would be appreciated.

I'd say you would have to be right with the Anthony thing, as there has never been any Anthony connected with the family before this.
Thanks for your help.
