Find Ancestors

Vicky there are quite a lot of the Essex records missing if I remember rightly. My family from Essex and had an awful job with some of those. Also Essex does not like to have there records online!!!! so I was told.

Can't seem to find her death at the mo. Pretty sure that is Daniel's that I posted and Eliza was still alive on the 1901 census but so was Daniel.

anything on elisa's death as i think it might of been after daniel's death in 1907?

I don't think the Eliza Harold on the census of 1841 etc is the one you are looking for because she appers on the 1881 census in the workhouse and your Eliza was married by then.

The census's I've listed are going back from the 1861 census that has an Eliza Harold working as a servant. Looking at the original it states she is a Dairymaid. Therefore I don't think this is the one you are looking for.

Does the marriage cert give her fathers occupation?

Witness were Elizabeth Fortuck? and James Glafrock? and Richard Harold's occupation was as a labourer.

on the marriage cert its state that she was a servant at Manor House in Linton Cambridge.

I am not sure whether the 1841 census is right as it doesn't list Richard Harold.

the 1851 should say if she was deaf but the column is blank,

I take it you got her fathers name from the marriage cert, what other info is on the cert?

Roy

could be!

I also know that she was deaf as well but not sure whether it would state on the census?

Anything on Richard Harold?
