1841/61 census look-up, please
« on: Friday 13 May 05 11:09 BST (UK) »
I would be very grateful if someone could look up this family  on the 1841 and 1851 census (I have their details from 1861 onwards).

Robert Bowles born Burwash, Sussex about 1795
Serenah Bowles (his wife); I don't know her date or place of birth but I know she died at some time before 1861
Their children Frederick (b. 1836)
Edith (b. 1838)
Thomas (b. 1840)
George (b. 1843)
Iram William (b. 1845)
Ann Serenah (b. 1847)

All birth dates are approximate. The children were all born around Ewhurst so I assume that's where they were living in 1841 and 1851.

Many thanks!

Jane

hi there

Perhaps this is what you are looking for:

1851 Census

HO107/ 1636/ Folio 237/ Page 38 - Marchants, Ewhurst.

BOWLES Robert, Head, Marr, 51, Blacksmith, born Burwash
.............  Serena, Wife, Marr, 39, born Ewhurst
.............  James, Son, Unm, 21, born Northiam
.............  Thomas, Son, Unm, 10, born Ewhurst
.............  George, Son, Unm, 7, born Ewhurst
.............  Tram, Son, Unm, 5, born Ewhurst
.............  Ann, Dau, Unm, 3, born Ewhurst

Hope the above fits in with your research

Will do the 1841 later this evening

Dear Chris

That's brilliant – thank you so much. For the first time I have some facts about Serena! It's a great help.
