Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 26 Send Message	Yes margaret my mistake im with you now. Saving up to buy a subscrition so i can look at all census years, feel cheeky asking people really but once you get the bug. Do you recommend any sites that are best to subscribe to? Janet

	Are you calculating his birthdate from age on census, Janet? The 1861 census was done 7 April. Joseph was born Oct. 1852 so would have been 8 on the 61 census. (Hadn't had his birthday yet.) The births I posted are definitely the same family that Barbara posted the census for. Twins Thomas and Joseph match.

Member Since: February 2004 Posts: 26 Send Message	Thanks so much margaret, not sure that can be his birth, i thought he wasn't born till 1853 but will check further and try to find out. Same for his sibling's some of the names seem right but others dont match the census. again will see what else i can cross match. Thanks again, Kindest regards Janet
