Is it possible to find information from Brazilian BMD records ,,an ancestor English married out in Rio Janeirs about 1841 ,,his daughter was born there and his wife is down in census as being born there also , they dont appear in any census records until 1861 as a family !! so i think they may have been living in Brazil prior to coming back into the UK .
Any suggestions would be greatly accepted.
Thank you .
Joyce.

Hi Nicky ,

Many thanks for the info regarding Brazilian records - this part of my family had me quite perturbed as there is so little on the census about them ,,although i have been able to connecect directly via a few bits iv'e gleaned i would dearly love more information about a marriage and parents belonging to the three names which i have in this puzzle.

Once again some very helpful people coming up with help ,,,your reply will be followed up for sure .

Thank you .

Joyce.
