1861 Census for Wales
« on: Monday 18 January 16 11:40 GMT (UK) »
I have been trying to find an ancester who died in 1868. Her name is Christiana Williams born 1798 in Worthen Shropshire married to Thomas born c.1808. In 1851 they were living in Pennerley Hill Upper & Nether Heath, Montgomeryshire. They should still be thereabouts in 1861. There does not seem to be any census for this area. Can anybody enlighten me, was this enumeration district lost, or never done. Thankyou.
