There used to be a couple of old threads on the missing pieces from 1861


This is one of them

Researching:
PLEASE DO NOT: send me information concerning your thread on the board as it should be posted on your request where all members can see it.

Ancestry.co.uk shows number of residents of Milson, Shropshire in:
1851 = 170
1861 = 49
1871 = 171
Looks like some pages are missing from 1861?

Hi Everyone,

I wonder if I might ask for your help . I cannot find this family in 1861 census

Williams Edwards b 1806 Lindrige Worcestershire
Jane Edwards b 1820 Cleobury Shropshire
Joseph Edwards b 1847 Cleobury
William Edwards b 1851 Cleobury
Edmund Edwards b 1854 Cleobury

May be a Harriet Evans/Edwards b 1844 Cleobury with them. In all other census 1851- 1871 they are in Civil parish Milson Reg district Cleobury Mortimer.

Would appreciare anyone having a look.

Regards
Anne
