Just spent 2 hours trawling through the 1841 census looking for the following:------ MARGARET DELAY (that`s how it is spelt on her marriage cert.) born abt1815, St. Georges in the East. and married in Stepney in 1857. Her father is CHARLES DELAY, a coal whipper according to Margarets marriage cert. Do you think I can find them !!!!!! no I can`t, another pair of eye would be most welcome. Kathlyn
