Sophia Pollard 1851 can you find her family please?
« on: Tuesday 13 October 15 22:18 BST (UK) »
I am trying to  find the family of Sophia Charlotte Pollard, birth 1835 Lambeth or Chelsea.

I can find Henry Whitchurch and Sophia's Marriage 1d 382 1855 Lambeth but I cannot seem to find Sophia C Pollards family on the 1841 1851 or 1861 census on FindMyPast or freecen.

Sophia Fathers name is James and was born in Uckfield Sussex but that is all I have been able to find out . i've ordered the marriage cert but would like to find the family in the meantime

thank you both these are two records that I didn't see .
I have found a couple of references to Sophia Pollard born 1834 ?
One of which was an unmarried Mother living with another family .

I found another 1851 census record of a James Pollard 41 and Wife Sophia 40 Farmer living in Sussex.
one 11 Dau and 2x servants which could be her Parents I suppose.?

Also on 1841 census with Sarah Thos & Naomi living in Uckfield Sussex

I just cannot seem to find any reference to Sophia their Daugter which would confirm the parents and family
keyboard I've just noticed your reference to James's profession Instrument maker so that must be the correct family surely.
I wonder if I can find them earlier and later

yes I can see that the two familys you and Lisa have listed must be correct although I didn't see Sophia listed she has presumably been mistranscribed as Charlotte J

Thank you both for your lookups . I had to put my Father to bed in the middle of reading your posts and wasn't paying proper attention My apologies.
Thank you for all that information which I'll digest and record in my records

me too lol ::)

just noticed quite a discrepancy in James age !
He's aged 35 years between 1841 and 1851 and his Wife Ann 12 years ...
Thanks for all your help there are lots of leads for me to chase up tomorrow.
