Poor little George Blackham. Baptised 8 March 1819 Belper, mother Matilda (née Storer) dies in 1822, father Matthew gets transported to Tasmania in 1823...
Other than his baptism, the only record I can find of George is on the 1861 census, aged 42, a Boatman at Heage. There's a possible bmd death 1876 at Belper but says aged 60.
I'd like to find out where George Blackham was between 1823 and 1861. Grandparents on his mothers side both dead by 1841. Not with grandparents on father's side. Couldn't see any entry in the Belper work house, and no trace on 1841 or 1851...
Any idea's please ? Thanks.
