Ancestors that appear on every census

[clairec666]

Is this a record? I have EIGHT direct ancestors who appear on all censuses.

You beat me, as I only have six; but my children (aged 25-32) have nine (and their children will have more than that). The younger you are, the more you are likely to have.

Admittedly I'm closer in age to your children, so I'm at an advantage.

Two direct ancestors. One a 3 x great grandmother born in Liverpool in 1838, died in Rochdale in 1917. The other a 2 x great grandmother born in Rushen Isle of Man in 1839, died in Castletown Isle of Man in 1930.

I'm only 26 years old myself so I should have more than most.

This is what I have:

1. Sarah Low born 1828, died 1911.

2. Robert Rodgers born 1837, died 1911.

3. Margaret McPartlan born 1833, died 1911.

4. Harrison Bunning, born 1834, died 1914.

5. Mary Gavin, born sometime in the 1830s, died 1915.

6. Sarah McCaffery, born sometime in the 1830s, died 1914.

The first three only just made it!
