Kent 1841 Census check please?
« on: Tuesday 04 October 05 17:21 BST (UK) »
Would SKS check the above for the following please?

Rebecca GARDNER dob 2 Apr 1837 in Dover...parents are William and Frances.  If they are found I would appreciate as much info as possible please, but especially on the place of birth of Frances.

Rebecca also had (allegedly) bro and sis as follows

Alice...  1824...  Dover
Sarah.. 1822..    Dover
William.1820..    Dover
Ann?....1816..    Dover

Any help would be appreciated

Best

Hi,

The 1841 census isn't name indexed and was/is a big place! Do you have an address or district of where Rebecca was born as i'll start my search there for you.

Also, the 1841 doesn't mention place of birth, only the county of birth (yes or no).

Hi Paula,
             No on all counts I'm afraid...but thanks for offering to help, it was very kind of you.  Is the 1851 any different to the 1841 in those respects?  Forgive my ignorance in these matters please.

Thanks again

Hi Rog

You could try Dover Library - I'm sure they'd be willing to check any indexes that they may have for these census years to get some reference numbers if you give them all the details:
