1841 Census Barnett BARNETT, Chatham
« on: Friday 19 August 05 19:37 BST (UK) »
If it's not too much trouble, would someone please look up my Barnett family in the 1841 census?  They should be on High Street in Chatham, Kent.

According to a look-up someone did for me in the 1851 census, the family might look something like this in 1841:

Barnett BARNETT, about 41, clothes dealer / hawker, born Chatham
Hannah Barnett, wife (if still living)
Rose or Rosa Barnett, daughter, about 11, born Chatham
Hannah Barnett, daughter, about 5, born Chatham
Abram or Abraham Barnett, son, about 2, born Chatham
Amelia Barnett, daughter, born 12 April 1840, Chatham

I've just received Amelia's birth record and she was born at High Street, Chatham.  I'm very excited to have it confirmed that her father was Barnett Barnett and her mother was named Hannah Roberts. 

In 1851, Rose / Rosa and Amelia were living at 245 High Street and Barnett and his other children were living at 242 High Street.

Thank you!!

Regards,
Josephine

Paula,

Thank you so much for your help!  This is super!

Yes, I've been spending a lot of happy hours viewing the images at the CityArk Medway Ancestors website!!!  So far, I haven't found a lot on the Barnetts, but I've found lots for my Beaumonts in Gillingham.  ; )

Thanks again!
