What has he been transcribed as?

[Vasquez109]

Evening all.

Im trying to find Augustus Wallis born 1844 to Edward Wallis and Ann (Bishop). Born in Albury, I cant find him in 1851 and trying to work out what the name has been butchered to by the transcriber. In later census he is down as Agastus. Family has moved by 1861 to Broxted, Essex.

Can anyone help what I need to type into my search bar. Not sure how Id search by parish as im sure it must be possible but I dont know how.

Any advice appreciated.

David.

For reference this is the family in 1861
www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M7CH-W53

The birthplace of Selby should read Takeley, Essex, the writing is difficult to read but baptisms at Takeley allowed me to recognise the place name.
Baptisms James 1846, Eliza 1849, Susan 1851 (28th September)

I also think the age for Elizabeth may be wrong and she may be Eliza and finally image on next page has two more children, Ann 1856 Albury and Sarah 1859 Broxted. I hope this helps someone to find him. Have you found any of the family in 1851?

I've tried every way I could think of, including searching for his parents and some of his siblings and found nothing.

I tried different names and wildcard searches, with no luck.

That does't meant they are not there of course.

Ah thankk you! Sadly I havent found any of them in 1851. Seem to have disappeared off the face of the earth!

Thanks.
David.

*I suspect that this is a blended family.....with/without marriage to find.
*Two children aged 14 years?
*Suspicious gap between Elizabeth, b ~ 1846, Essex,...and.....Susan, b. ~ 1852, Essex.

For Census, 1851, look in Essex for.....what?

*If the mother of Augustus WALLIS is a BISHOP, I would not assume that she is Ann BISHOP.

*Where Ann is named as mother of WALLIS children in Census, 1861, I would not assume that she is Ann BISHOP.

The 1851 census for the whole of the Dunmow Registration District is missing.  I believe Takeley was in that district so that is probably why you cannot find him or his family.
