Well we seem to be able to follow Elizabeth Smith but not her Frederick but if he was a fisherman then he could have been at sea on the other census too but not when he was tiny!!!!!!

He must be there somewhere mistranscribed.

Mel Fairy Godmother Report 7 Dec 2009 23:18

Will have another look tomorrow as I need my bed!!

I must just add though, it is sooooo nice to have someone answer our questions on a thread Suzi. Usually people just put a question up and never reply, well a lot anyway. I never go any further with them even if I could.

So thanks for your replies.

Is 139 Row the address on the birth cert you have for Frederick?

There is a Joseph Lark born c 1814 living there in a few census records.
