Hi

Please could I have a fresh pair of eyes on the 1861 census for this family please

1841
Marmaduke Shepherd    63 Her father
Jane Shepherd    62 her mother
Alice Shepherd  born 1811 Ingleton, Yorkshire aged 29..............................   Missing of the 1861
John Shepherd    9 Illigitimate child of Alice
Henry knowles Shepherd    8 Mo Illigitimate child of Alice
~~~~~~~~-------------------
1851
John Lawson    44
Alice Lawson / Shepherd   39 born Ingleton Yorkshire
Thos Lawson    19 Son of John Lawson and Alice his previous wife ( Not Shepherd)
Henry Knowles Shepherd 9   Illigitimate child of Alice
Alice Shepherd    6 Illigitimate child of Alice
Marmaduke Shepherd    8 Mo Illigitimate child of Alice

Note John and Alice are claiming to be married but I belive them NOT to be )
~~~~~~~~----------------
ALL MISSING of the 1861 census
 Alice  Shepherd / Lawson born 1811 Ingleton Yorkshire
 Henry Knowles Shepherd born 1840 Caton, Lancashire England
Alice Jane Shepherd born 1844 Bentham, Yorkshire, England
~~~~~~~~------------------
1861 Census
Marmaduke W Shepherd born 1850 in Burton in Lonsdale, Yorkshire, England is with his Grandmother Jane Sheherd.
and
John Lawson born 1811  in Burton in Lonsdale is a servant in Lancashire ( with a Family Kay)
~~~~~~~~----------------
1871
Alice Shepherd    59  Head  UNMARRIED
Marmaduke W Shepherd 20 Son
Alice Myers    27 Daughter Visitor
William Henry Myers    1 Grandson Visitor
John Shepherd    8 Grandson
John Lawson    65 Boarder UNMARRIED
~~~~~~~~-----------------
1881
William Taylor    46
Elizabeth Taylor    36
Elizabeth A. Taylor 5
Squire M. Taylor    5
Rachel Taylor    2
Alice Shepherd    70  Housekeeper Unmarried
Marmaduke Shepherd    29 Indoor farm Servant
~~~~~~~~--------------------
1891
John Lawson    85 Widower Head
Alice Shephard    80 Housekeeper Single
Isabella Shephard  Boarder Single 75...( A cousin to Alice)
~~~~~~~~-------------------
Alice Shepherd  died in 1897

So as you can see other than the 1861( highlighted in bold type) I have Alice Shepherd born 1811 Ingleton Yorkshire, tracked down, but the 1861 may well hold a clue to another query I have so Any help VERY much appreciated.

Also Henry Knowles Shepherd born Caton Lancashire England 1840 Illigitimate child to Alice Shepherd
I have hie christening record then  in 1841 and 1851 then nothing until his death in 1917 in Yorkshire and his probate record ( Not sent for his Will yet).

so Any help on the missing
1861
1871
1881
1891
1901
Would be very much appreciated.

Kind regards Judi

Hi

Thanks for the replies

 I also saw that Lancashire census for the Alice shepherd that Jen posted, I'm not sure that's her, it's a possability the occupation ( Nurse) doesn't link with any others I have for her but the age and place of birth are a good match.

Jan Thanks for that information re the missing 1861 census for yorkshire, I was unaware of that.
may well explain them missing .

Any joy with Henry Knowles Shepherd 1840 Caton Lancashire ?

Kind regards Judi

Hi there,

Wondered if this might be Henry Knowles Shepherd in the 1861 census.
I looked under Henry Knowles as generally a surname as the middle name
means that could be the Fathers surname but the woman did not marry
him.
He is in the Ripon area of Yorkshire with Richard Knowles and his wife Sarah
He is 21 and classed as the son of Richard .
Richard was born in Wray, Lancashire which is 4 miles from Caton where
you mentioned Henry being born.
Also Jennifer has mentioned Alice is in Wray aged 49
Inglebrough is less than a mile from Burton in Lonsdale.
A Nurse could imply a caretaker, Housekeeper looking after children the house
or even a older person.  Doesnt mean they were qualified for a hospital.
My gggGrandma was classed as a Nurse and she was only 15.
The only thing about the Henry I have mentioned is his place of birth
has been put down as Ripon which covers a great area which the
Cathedral was in charge of. 
Could be a missing link somewhere but these bits of information seem
to connect.

Hi Sandy

Thanks for the reply

I have just looked for the same family in the 1851 and Henry Knowles is listed with Richard and Sarah on that census too where as I have mine in 1851 living with his mother as  Henry Shepherd, so I sadly don't think it's him 

Many thanks for the time and effort.

kind Regards Judi
