I have research one of my lines back to the 1841 Census but Im unsure where to go next. Before then, there are no household records and all I have is the Name ROBERT WALDRON and that in was born in Worcestershire abt 1806

Any suggestions? :-)

Have you got Robert Waldron in the 1851 census? Might give you a more specific birthplace for him.

Erika I did have a look on familysearch with no luck. Looks like a visit to the local records office.

Good luck!
