Please can anyone find John Thomas Mist, born 2/06/1838, Lambeth, in 1861 census. I have him in all others. He sometimes called himself just Thomas. He is not with his widowed father. He married in 1862 in Lambeth. I have today ordered what I hope is his first marriage certificate - to Emma Johnson. Eternal thanks to anyone who can find him! Angela

Thanks Julie. Pat I'll have a look at those two. He did have a wife called Alice (they were my gg grandparents), but not till after Emma. As far as I'm aware he wasn't a soldier, but you never know! Thanks for looking. Angela

Could either of these 2 be him - 1861 England Census about John Thomas (no surname ??) Name: John Thomas Age: 24 Estimated birth year: abt 1837 Gender: Male Where born: Lambeth, Surrey, England Civil parish: Winchester St Thomas County/Island: Hampshire Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: View image Registration district: Winchester Sub-registration district: Winchester ED, institution, or vessel: Barracks Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 1 Household Members: Name Age John Thomas 24 There were loads listed but I deleted them as it would have taken up too much room. Was his surname missed off and was he a soldier? 1861 England Census about Thomas Mix (? name spelt incorrectly) Name: Thomas Mix Age: 23 Estimated birth year: abt 1838 Gender: Male Where born: Lambeth, Surrey, England Civil parish: Shoreditch St Leonard Ecclesiastical parish: Haggerston St Mary County/Island: Middlesex Country: England Street address: Occupation: Condition as to marriage: View image Registration district: Shoreditch Sub-registration district: Haggerstone East ED, institution, or vessel: 11 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 23 Household Members: Name Age Robert Harritt 44 Maria Hewitt 35 Robert Thos Hewitt 23 Alice Mix 17 Thomas Mix 23 On this census Alice is given as the wife of Thomas Mix – don’t know how that fits in with your research. Good Luck. Pat.
