Can't find these Wilsons on the 1861 Census
« on: Monday 21 January 19 18:38 GMT (UK) »

I'm looking at this Marriage:

William Wilson,23, Occupation: Stonemason,bachelor of Back Lane.
Married Alice Kay,21, Occupation: Dressmaker of Back Lane.
Grooms Father Henry Wilson,Occupation: Stonemason.
Brides father, Benjamin Kay , Occupation: Publican.
Witnesses to the Marriage, David Kay and Hannah Wilson.
St Mary The Virgin,Prestwich
6th of September 1852.

I've looked for William Wilson with sister Hannah Wilson on the 1851 Census, but can't find them.

I also can't find William and Alice Wilson on the 1861 Census. Can anyone on here see them please?

Cheers, Romilly.

Just rechecking my notes on  William Wilson and Alice Kay to see if they had a child William James Wilson, born 1860/1861.

Many thanks for looking among, much appreciated.

There's an interesting gap for 1860/'61, but no sign of a living child born then, sadly.

It was worth a look through...
