1841/51 or 61 Census look-up for Blake in Tiverton
« on: Tuesday 15 March 05 11:56 GMT (UK) »
Hi everyone I am looking for a Charles Blake born 1798. He was living in Tiverton during the 1871 census but would like to trace him further back to try and confirm his second sons name. His first son was Alfred born in 1834 the second son was born in 1836, but we have no idea if he survived. Charles was a minister/preacher for the Bible christian connection and travelled around a lot, so it may be he was somewhere else in Devon or Cornwall at these times.

Any help very much appreciated.

Thanks
Andy

Looks like he went to Ireland preaching and got himself a bride ;D could be why he isnt on the 1851/41
