1841 Census look up- Jones
« on: Thursday 21 July 05 18:49 BST (UK) »
Hello, I am trying to find my great x 3 grandfather George Jones on the 1841 Census. George was born around 1820, he was the son of John and Mary Jones and he had at least 2 brothers Edward born about 1808 and Mark born 1822. All 3 children were baptised at Dawley Magna, but I couldn't find the family when I looked at the Dawley Census. On the 1861 Census George Jones did state that he was born in Wellington.
Any information would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks.
