William Merricks on 1861 ir 1871 census
« on: Tuesday 17 May 05 18:04 BST (UK) »
Is there a kind person that would do me a look up on the 1861 or 1871 census for William Merricks born about 1854/55 in Ewhurst. Any details of his parents and siblings would be a great help.
 Many thanks

Hi there,
 Many thanks for the information. The fact that the family were living in Kent answers another query i had.
 Many thanks again
