Hi Sally, You kindly sent me some census details a while back concerning Emma Hart b1839 Birm as follows: 1851 census info: Edwin Hart Head 37 Elizabeth wife 42 Henry son 13 EMMA daugh 11 William son 6 Samuel son 3 Samuel Coleman Vist 52 ___________ Second. George Hart Head 41 Mary A wife 30 EMMA daugh 11 Eliza daugh 9 Sarah daugh 7 Selina daugh 5 Ann daugh 4 Rosanah daugh 2 I have now been able to eliminate the Edwin family so I believe the George family to be the correct one. If you have saved the details, could you send me the extra info, places of birth, address etc? Sorry to have took so long to find the right one!!!! Also I have another Slynn family of Birmingham for lookup if you don't mind: George Slynn b1814 Birmingham Sarah wife b Edgbaston? Francis George (or just George) son b1837 Birmingham Thomas b1839 Birmingham. Slynn has sometimes been entered as Slinn, Slim, Slym, Slyme, Shun!! Thanks again, Gillian

Hi Sally Thank you very much for the William Whittingham lookup. Am pretty sure this is the correct one, later census shows his son William as a brushmaker, in Aston. (They are transcribed as NOTTingham on the 1881 census!! Thanks for your time, much appreciated. Ann (Dorothy)
