1841 and 1851 york lookup please!
« on: Friday 08 April 05 18:24 BST (UK) »
I am desperately looking for the family of William and Sarah WRIGHT.

They were married on Nov. 29 1840 residence given as St. Andrewgate, in the parish of St. Saviour, York.  William's occupation was listed as a whitesmith.

They had a child William christened 1st Feb, 1841 at St. Saviours and another son named John also born at St. Saviours on the 8th of Nov. 1842 address on this cert. is again listed as St. Andrewgate, York.

Any help on finding this couple in the 1841 or 1851 census would be greatly appreciated.

William's father was a printer named John Wright and Sarah's father name was John PRINCE.

Thanks!
