1851/1841 lookup - EAGLE in Escrick - completed

[MJP]

Hi all,

I thought I had access to the 51 and 41 at my local FHC, but it turns out that they don't have them.  I would really appreciate it if someone has the time to look these up:

1851 - in Escrick

Richard Eagle, b. Escrick <1807>; wife Sarah, b. Church Lawford Warwickshire, children Mary, John

1841 - in Escrick

Richard Eagle (has not yet married Sarah).  Perhaps still living with parents William and Mary Eagle in Escrick. Other Eagles in Escrick would also be of interest. 

Many thanks,

Martha

Hi Martha

I don't know where  you are of course - but I believe they have the 1851 returns at Selby Library - 52 Micklegate, Selby, YO8 4EQ Tel: 01757 702 020

Hope this helps

Best wishes

Thanks for the tip Ticker, but it would be a bit of a trek from Canada    Appreciate the thought though...

Thanks so much Goughy!  Amazing that the father was still alive in 1851.  If I remember correctly, without notes in front of me, Grace must be the widow of one of one of Richard's older brothers (Richard is youngest of 9 siblings). 

Does anyone have the 1841? I have updated the title of the post...
