1861 census look up WAKELING SMITH
« on: Thursday 07 April 05 13:17 BST (UK) »
Hello
I am trying to find my gg grandad Joseph Wakeling Smith born abt 1855 in Leicester. His mother was Lidia Wakeling born  abt 1832 in Whetsone, Leicester. She married another Joseph Smith in 1864, which means Joseph must have been about nine when his parents married. I am trying to find out where they were living  and with whom in 1861. Any help will be very much appreciated.  Lidias mum and dad were Mary Ann and Charles Wakeling.
Thanks
Mandy
