Census 1841 BEALE in Bath
« on: Tuesday 06 March 12 20:54 GMT (UK) »
This is my last major mystery

1851  at 17 Broadwall Christchurch, London.
HO 107 1557 17? (not sure of the last digit)

Joseph Eveson 26 Greengrocer London, Smithfield
Eliza E(lizabeth) Eveson 27 At Home Somerset, Bath
Joseph Eveson 1 Surrey Christchurch
Susan Beale Wife's mother 65 formerly laundress Bath

I got the marriage certificate, Eliza Elizabeth Beale's dad was John Beale, a Mason.

John Beale (mason)
Susan Beale (laundress) born c. 1786
Eliza Elizabeth Beale born c 1824

I never found them in 1841

Help!? Another pair of eyes might spot them? Indexes improved in the last 5 years (when I last looked).

Hi Alan,

Not exactly what you asked for, but this might help

That helps enormously  ;D  - it gives me a place to work from when I next get access to the census details. Thank you so much.

It would be more useful if the address was included. It usually is in registers of that period, but here the FreeREG entries were taken from an older transcript which did not include abode and occupation.

I notice Eliza seems to be the only child baptised by John and Susannah in the Bath area. Given Susannah's age, that suggests they may have had earlier children elsewhere. Or perhaps that it was a late marriage, perhaps the second for one or both of them. Which makes this marriage interesting.

Very interesting, a real possibility. My son is at Bath Uni, I may be asking him to visit a couple of places! Of course the records are probably in the Somerset FH centre in Taunton. I'll check.

Thanks again.

Bath RO has microfiche copies of nearly all parish registers from the area. Full list here

http://www.batharchives.co.uk/family_history/parish_registers/list_of_parish_registers.aspx#R

They recommend booking a microfiche reader but I find there's nearly always one free if you just drop in, except perhaps in the summer holidays. Opening times here
