Member Since: May 2003 Posts: 858 Send Message	Hi, Don't know if I have posted this before, but am having problems finding the Finch family in the census's. My 3xGreat grandfather - Henry John Finch is on 1851 census with family. (Ref - HO/107 Piece 1547, Folio 490, Page 6 - 2, North Street, St. George in the East) Henry married Margaret Finnegan and I am descended from daughter Emma Sarah Mary Finch. This line is established and found!! However, it is the rest of the siblings I am trying to find and their descendants. Any help please. Thanks,
