Hi Wendy Is this the right one? 1841 England Census about Samuel Deforges Name: Samuel Deforges [Samuel Desforges] Age: 55 Estimated birth year: abt 1786 Gender: Male Where born: Lincolnshire, England Civil parish: Bilsby Hundred: Calceworth Hundred (Wold Division) County/Island: Lincolnshire Country: England Street address: Occupation: View image Registration district: Caistor Sub-registration district: Caistor Neighbors: View others on page Household Members: Name Age Elizabeth Deforges 50 Samuel Deforges 55 Judi

Hello Judi, Yes thank you it does sound like the same Samuel.....how do you think I should go from here, so find anymore about the family as that was the first census, and I would like to find if they had children etc. Wendy R

Hi Wendy Try the familysearch website. Parish records for the area could show you children with parents of the right names. Someone could have them on a tree on Ancestry. or you could put a posting on rootschat, or you could 'Google' them - you never know what that might bring up. Judi

Wendy this is a submitted entry on the IGI so would need double checking... Samuel D'Forges Male Event(s): Birth: Christening: 19 APR 1787 Bilsby, Lincoln, England Death: Burial: 27 AUG 1849 Bilsby, Lincoln, England Parents: Father: William Desforges F Mother: Deborah Rowell Marriages: Spouse: Elizabeth Ling Marriage: 01 JUL 1813 Bilsby, Lincoln, England Georgina.

Wendy according to the IGI these are the children born to Samuel Desforges & Elizabeth Ling, it looks like they are all submitted entries so make sure you check them carefully.... 22.

Thanks Girls for your help with the Desforges, they are new to me in my TREE so I have abit to go on now, to keep me busy, I think they originated from France. Now to find out how they came into my family, it will be interesting to find someone else who is researching the same name. Best Wishes, Thanks Wendy R
