Hi Hayley Just seen your post on the Records Board. If you don't have any luck (could be that nobody has that one) Archive cd Books has the 1841 Dorset Census broken down into sections. The cd with Corfe Castle on is only £7.50. But if you fancy the whole of the census for Dorset it is available from Stepping Stones for about £32. Jeanette x

Hi Hayley Try posting this request on the Records Office Board. That's where most of the people with census discs hang out and you will be more likely to get a reply. Hope you don't mind me suggesting this. I would hate you to miss out. Jeanette x

I am looking for the parents and brothers and sisters of my g.g.g.grandfather. He was called John Jeffries/Jefferies and born in 1839/1840 in Corfe Castle in Dorset. Can anyone help please?
