1851 Samuel UNDERWOOD lookup please

[janan]

Thank you so much David - it's got to be them despite the surname and yes I think this must be a record for what I thought was a simple census lookup I suppose whoever they were lodging with gave the enumerator the weird information, little knowing what trouble they'd cause 154 years later. Just to push my luck could you tell me who they were lodging with please in case it is someone of interest.
Thanks again, you're a star.
Cheers Jan

Hi Jan

Richard Stoakes h m 31 Joyner b Bedford and wife Jane 29 b St Ives Hunts.

Samuel Underwood was the only Weedard in the whole of the country, which may not come as a complete surprise to you!

Can we have a difficult look up next time please!

Regards

David

Hi David
Thanks for that.

Can we have a difficult look up next time please!

I'll see what I can come up with - it always makes it more fun. As for this one being a record I found an old 51/41 lookup thread of mine on the Derbyshire board that ran for 4 pages and was read 700+ times - seems I have very awkward ancestors.

If the Derbyshire look up was for two censuses then you have to halve the statistics for comparison purposes! So Beds is still the record holder.
