1841/51/61/91 census look up please
« on: Sunday 20 September 09 09:03 BST (UK) »
Hi, with the help of another rootchatter I have just located a family on the 1871 census.  I think it was found on FindMyPast.  With her help I found the census on Ancestry, the site I am a member of.  The reason I couldn't find them myself was because of poor transcription (and me being useless!).

My family cannot be found on Ancestry on the above censuses either so I'm hoping someone will be able to find them elsewhere?

I am looking for William Wakelam 1815 - 1892 in Pattingham, Stafford.  Spouse is Hannah (Smith) and children are Jane, John, Ann, George and Joseph.

TIA

What Reg district is this family in?
What ages go with these kids' names?

You have 1871 and 1881? > Please relate it in full.
