I am looking for William Mayson b. 1804 from Holbeach Lincs. His wife is Elizabeth. I would really like to know her age on census and where born. They married in 1825 and I am trying to trace what her maiden name was, so age and birthplace would help.
Many thanks Bradley

Thank you, is the status the same in 1851 ?

His wife must have either died or my information incorrect.

Is there a chance we can folllow this forward to 1861 & 1871. His father died in 1859, and his mother in 1867.
Thank you.

You beat me to it. On 1861 does the narrative suggest he had a disability ??
