question/look-up request Blaenavon, Monmouthshire 1851 census
« on: Friday 20 May 16 20:09 BST (UK) »
Is there a census for Blaenavon, Monmouthshire?  I can't seem to find the Joseph Harris (born Wellington, Shropshire), wife Mary (born Bilston, Staffs), children Caroline and Tamar (both born Bilston, Staffs), on the 1851 in England....A daughter Betsey is born there in Blaenavon 1852, and they do later live there.  Been trying to figure out how I can go through the census myself in case they got skipped.  Not on findmypast, ancestry, familysearch.  Any assistance appreciated.  Thx

A daughter Betsey is born there in Blaenavon 1852, and they do later live there. 

According to the 1861 census, Betsey (age 7) was born in 1854?

I have them 1841 thru to their daughter Betsey in the USA, cant locate family in 1851 tho.  I think they are in Wales and maybe got mistranscribed or skipped on the 1851.  Thx

Well, I'm embarrased to say I dont know how to search that?  Can you give me a location where you think they are, town etc.  I know I've seen somewhere where you add those details...HO107 etc, but can't seem to find where you enter it now.  Many thanks.

Sorry...me again...you're right, found them, it is them, yes!!  Thank you so much for your help.  Cant believe I missed them, I had searched using just forenames....very frustrating.  Thankyou!!
