Is there someone who has access to census records who would be able to do a lookup for me for 1861 census in Chelsea Kensington for the following family: John FARRANT born Preston Pluckett (Yeovil) c 1804, his occupation listed as something to do with glove manufacturing, hopefully living with his wife Hannah FARRANT born Bridport c 1804 age should be 57 (I have Hannah as a widow in 1871 living in Chelsea Kensington with her widowed daughter and grandchildren) Many thanks, Bev, Sydney Australia

Bev I can see them in 1851 but they seem to have vanished in 1861? Georgina.
