1861 Census - can’t see Richard Beacham
« on: Monday 31 July 23 15:11 BST (UK) »
I’d be grateful for help with a census record that eludes me.
Richard Beacham / Beauchamp (and other spellings) was born in Lower Swell, Gloucestershire, in 1837. I have found him in all the censuses 1841-1911, except 1861. In 1871 he was in Maugersbury, Stow on the Wold, a labourer, with wife Louise, and daughter Mary (9), was born in Stow.

Many thanks for your answers. (FindMyPast has him transcribed as Baneham. Admittedly the writing is pretty grotty.)

1911 Louisa states married 53 years 7 children, 6 living 1 deceased.

From census and GRO Index
Mary Ann  1861  mmn Tims  (found by Rosie99)
Charles Frederick 1863  mmn Timbs
Clara Louisa 1865   mmn Timbs
Richard George 1872   mmn Tims
Elizabeth 1874   mmn  Tims       -- baptized Notgrove 27 September 1874
Roseanna circa 1877
William circa 1880

GRO Index is really slow today, so I haven't found Roseanna or William yet.

That makes 7 children but I wonder about a gap of 7 years between Clara and Richard.
