Hi Trisha,

Just got hold of a copy of the 1861 Census Images for Bedfordshire and found the following:

RG9-990 Folio 112 Page 9 Schedule 37
The Green Wootton

James Timms Head Mar 44 Ag Lab Marston
Mary Timms Wife Mar 43 Lacemaker Marston
Ann Timms Dau Unm 18 Lacemaker Marston
Joseph Timms Son 11 Ag Lab Marston
James Timms Son 10 Ag Lab Marston
George Timms Son 7 Wootton
Sarah Timms Dau 4 Wootton
Jesse Timms Son 5 days Wootton

To be truthful Jessies name was very difficult to make out but I looked on FreeBDM and found his birth details:
Births Jun 1861
TIMMS    Jesse        Bedford    3b   324

and it then just about made sense

Cheers Rob

Hi Rob,
fantastic.Never been able to see the 1861 info before.It's confirmed that Jesse was theirs and not another couple who were also called Timms.
Many thanks,
Trisha :)
