1851 census look up for Martha New

[janjim]

I have a Martha New born 1826, looks like she married in 1849 at Newbury, to one of the following Henry Middleton, William Dell, Joseph Challis or Edwin Collins.

Wonder if someone could please look up census info for me, and subsequent years if possible.

Was she born in Berkshire or just marry there?

[CaroleW]

Or possibly none of those listed

If you count the entries there are 5 females and only 4 males

[janjim]

Yes I suppose it is possible it may not be one of those listed, but she definitely came from Berkshire.

I have 1841 census for Martha, she was living with her family at Newbury Berkshire, she was definitely born in Berkshire.

Sorry CaroleW,

I've probably asked too much, so in the meantime, I've checked to see if Edwin Collins died, and yes, there he is, he died in 1856 at Newbury.    It is possible that Martha may have re-married, but to whom I don't know.
