WALPOLE: 1861 Census Lookup, Please
« on: Monday 01 August 05 20:14 BST (UK) »
Hello everyone,

I'm wondering if someone could help me by finding the following lady in 1861. I have included her details as follows:

Rhoda Walpole/b. 1786 in East Bilney, Norfolk

I do believe that her husband was John Walpole and was born in Stanfield.

If anyone could help me with this, I would be most grateful :).

Best wishes,
Sgt Tollers

1861 census RG9 1244 folio 133 Near Maids Head Stanfield  Norfolk 
John Walpole 74  Not Known Head   Married
Rhoda Walpole 75 East Bilney, Norfolk,  Wife  Married

I have real difficulty in reading John's occupation (nothing like the ag lab occupation of 1851) three words. You might want somebody else to try and decipher it.

Regards
Valda
