BEAUMONT 1851 census Gillingham
« on: Tuesday 19 July 05 00:10 BST (UK) »
If it's not too much trouble, would someone please look up my BEAUMONT family in the 1851 census?  They should be in Gillingham, Kent.

The family might consist of:

John Beaumont, head
Sarah Beaumont, wife
John Beaumont, son, born about 1823
Caroline Matilda Beaumont, daughter, born about 1830
Henry Beaumont, son, born about 1832
Edwin Beaumont, son, born about 1834
William Francis Beaumont, son, born about 1836
Elizabeth Ann Beaumont, daughter, born about 1839
Matilda Susanna Beaumont, daughter, born about 1841
James Richard Beaumont, son, born about 1843

All the children were born in Gillingham.

I've found the baptismal records online for all but John (he's living near Edwin in the 1881 census so I'm guessing they're related) but they don't list a street address.

(I have William Francis Beaumont & his wife, Amelia nee Barnett, in the 1861 and 1871 census, but I don't know where his parents were living.)

Thank you for any help!

Regards,
Josephine
