Welcome to rootschat Crocky.

Can you give us a few more clues?

Is 1837 his year of birth?  Do you have details of his birth (parents etc)?

Do you have him in any censuses?

What town/county is Henry from?

I just checked the 1841 census and there are 19 Henry Crockfords - so we need a few more details about your Henry ...  :)

Welcome to Rootschat. See that you also started another topic for Henry-
duplicate topic removed

Duplicate threads cause confusion for those trying to help but before I merge the topics or move them to another board can you please give us more details.

Hello everyone,

looking at the other thread 'life guard'- does that mean coastguard?

There is this census entry:

1851 HO107; Piece: 1628; Folio: 387; Page: 2
Coast Guard Station House, Warden, Kent

William Crockford 47 ys Coastguard Service b Chatham Kent
Aquila Crockford 54 ys b Kent Cliff
Aquela Crockford 15 ys Dressmaker b Ireland
Henry Crockford 13 ys b Ireland

It links (kind of) the other query with the year given 1837  :-\
but then again ...
regards
heywood

Aquila Crockford 54 ys b Kent Cliff
Aquela Crockford 15 ys Dressmaker b Ireland
Henry Crockford 13 ys b Ireland

So is this your Henry as found by heywood?

Can you be a bit more precise about what you're looking for? Are you hoping to trace him further back from 1837, or forward through the censuses?

I have located the family on the 1871 census. Do you have this? Writing is fairly bad but I'm sure we can all pitch in and try to decipher if you'd like.
