Member Since: February 2003 Posts: 10 Send Message	I've found Joseph Lea, a coal dealer, in 1901 and 1891 Census born and living in Birkenhead Cheshire aged 38 and 28 respectively. I couldn't find him in England in 1881 or 1871. I may have found him in 1881, aged 18, living in Wales- I think in Montgomeryshire. Does anyone have access to 1871 Wales census who would kindly see if they could find him with his family when he would be about 8 years old? TIA Audrey.
