Throssell - 1851 or 1861 census look up

[billyoung173]

I'm looking for William Throssell - my great (3) grandfather, in the 1871 and 1891 UK census he was married to a Sarah and had William, Henry and Eliza (1871) and 1891 he also had Fred, John, Gerry, Clarissa, Annie and Charles with an Emily Lee.  I found William had married Sarah in 1866.  He was born in  Pirton but was living in Barking Essex as a Baker by 1901 he had retired back to Pirton. 
 
I know that George Throssell and Rebecca Dawson had a William married to a Sarah - but there are different children.  I'm trying to track my William - I can't seem to find his parents.
 
Can anyone do a search for me of Pirton, Hertfordshire, 1861 or 1851.

Thank you.

Hi Miranda

I've looked at the 1851 for Pirton, and looked at the later online censuses.

The ages in the later censuses for the Barking William were 31 in 1871, 42 in 1881, 52 in 1891 and 63 in 1901. The other William born in Pirton in the 1830s was aged 36 in 1871, 45 in 1881, 54 in 1891;

The only William in Pirton of the right age group in 1851 was aged 13 the son of George and Rebecca.

Are you sure that your William wasn't the son of George and Rebecca, as the age fits better than the other William? Have you seen Barking William's marriage certificate which will give his father's name?

regards

David
