Woods Family. Preston, Lancashire 1851 Census
« on: Wednesday 27 January 21 21:29 GMT (UK) »
Can anyone help me with a look up in Preston Lancashire

The Family consists of Father John, Mother Mary

The Census ID is Registration Number: HO107 Piece/Folio: 2266 / 561

Which refers to Cobden Street, Preston, Lancashire

One of the sons is named Jabez Woods b 1843.
Other children are James (his date of birth seems to fluctuate so as early as 1833), Betty or Elizabeth, Mary Ann and joseph (twin of Mary).

James Woods marries from this address in Nov 1851.

There might be more children.

Thank you in advance Jinks

 ;D Yes it is didn't know about Nancy, and see it's down as Wood I have Mary (Mother) born Leyland from a later Census so that would be correct but only have John (Father) born Lancashire so that helps greatly

Thanks very much
