1841 and 1851 census check
« on: Sunday 01 November 15 02:29 GMT (UK) »
Looking for information on a George Marsh who was born in Dorset early 1840's.  He would have moved to Newfoundland, Canada by 1873, potentially with 2 other brothers -unknown.

Thanks,
Gail

Welcome to RootsChat! ;D

Do you have any more information?
Just looking at Birth Registrations on FreeBMD, there are George Marsh births in:
1838 Poole
1841 Wareham
1841 Beaminster
1844 Wimborne
1844 Beaminster
plus another 9 before the end of 1850!
Garrad (Suffolk, Essex, Somerset), Crocker (Somerset), Vanstone (Devon, Jersey), Sims (Wiltshire), Bridger (Kent)

Was he still single when he went to Canada.  Do you know his fathers name.
