Ross Report 27 May 2007 20:37

hello. i have a family living from the Stoke On Trent area and want to confirm which children they had. Their names are John Rigby b. 1797 and his wife Charlotte Rigby b. 1800. The children i have for them are : Harriet b. 1822, Jane b. 1824, Elizabeth b. 1824, William b. 1825, Charlotte b. 1827 and Thomas b. 1830. Could somebody please try to find this family on the 1841 census and possibly the 1851 if thats not too cheeky :) so i can see the children they had. Thanks a lot Ross Fletcher

Note that on the 1841 Census Charlotte's occupation is Ind ........... presumably meaning Independent Their address is George St, Newcastle Under Lyne. Was John dead by then?
