Hi again everyone, Think I may have found link I was looking for Elizabeth Frances Brooks Blackmore she is the daughter of George Balckmore and Mary Brooks who married in bristol 1848 (mary must have been 19) - on 1841 census she is aged 9 living in Redcliff, Bristol, the daughter of William and Betsy Brooks. William is 45 born c. 1796 - I am beginning to think William is Charles Brooks brother. So probably Elizabeth Blackmore aged 9 on the 1841 census in Monmouth living with Charles Brooks aged 61 - looks like she is his great niece. - Would anyone agree!! Thanks Elaine

Thanks to everyone Have now found that Elizabeth was the daughter of George Blackmore and Mary Brooks who married in Bristol March Quarter 1848 - Now need to find the link between Mary Brooks and Charles Brooks (born 1801 Bristol - who lived in Monmouth on 1841 and 1851 and 1861 census) Cheers all Elaine
