Thanks for the Emma. If you can at some time look at the Ellis family in 1861 and 1851 i would be most grateful. Don't worry if you are too busy now, but would appreciate it if you could do it a some point for me. Do you know how far back the Census go?

Julie, The census dates back to 1801 however, only those from 1841 have the names of the household members. Unfortunately I don't have access to the any census earlier than 1871 so can't help with those lookups I'm afraid. Emma.
