This i think is William's father from 1841 census listed with few kids with similar names and dates to some of the lost kids?Not exact but mistakes were made alot in those days especially by grandparents.Listed them as sons and daughters but there was no wife listed?Worth taking a further look maybe nothing but anything when you are stuck is worth a try.

Michelle,

This is the correct family,
Yes thanks for that, but I already have them pre 1861, and the children that I know survived from 1871 onwards..... Iv`e always wondered if they simply "missed" them off the 1861..... though how you can have that many children and "forget" about them seems impossible. I should have said William and Mary both died in Sep. 1861, so if you look on a later census you won`t find them, I also beleive John Henry and Emily died just before their parents though I do not have the certs. to prove that, though they should all have been alive at the time of 1861 census.

Thanks again
Nicky

Could you help me with my Leslie children that I have never been able to find in 1861.

I have their parents William Adam b 1827 Warrington and wife Mary {nee Needham} b 1827 Manchester they are at 38 Lower Byrom street Manchester.


The missing children are:
Margaret Ann b 1849 Bolton
Mary Jane b 1853 Manchester
William b 1855 Manchester
Adelaide b 1857 Manchester
John Henry b 1859 Manchester
and Emily b1861 also Manchester, she was only Christened 7 days before the census was taken so can`t be too far away..

Thanks in advance for any help you may be able to give me, this family have driven me mad for ages ...I can just find no trace of the children in 1861.

My apologises Lesley Ancestry seems to be having technical difficulties tonight! I just asked if others were having probs and appears they are. I will keep trying for you.Saw the 1861 census record but 1871 was not on the 1st page are you having probs finding it?

Regards
