Hi, I have a problem that I'm hoping a census search might fix!! I have a marriage between a William Wray and Christian Carnell in a castle in Durham in 1797 (might be off by a year or two). They had a number of children who were later christened in the same castle. However, I am searching for two of their children who dont appear to have been christened there, but I know exist. One is John Wray born c1817 and the other is Joe (?maybe Joseph??) Wray, born prior to 1819 I imagine. Is there any census info this far back, and if so, can you find this family?? Much appreciated!! Alison

Hi Janet Could you have a look and see whether you can find me a Herbert Henry Hawkridge on the 1901 census. He's on the one before with parents in the Radford area of Derby but suspect he may be married by 1901 (he'd be about 26). Many thanks Ali

Hi Janet, I was wondering if you could look up the Bellchambers family from Horsted Keynes, Sussex. James Bellchambers was born around 1784 and married Ann Phillips in Otford, Kent in 1814. I know that at some point after their marriage they moved to Edenbridge in Kent. Am interested in anything you could tell me about either of these two and their family. Many Thanks Sarah

In 1891 Ann is a widow with three small children. the eldest Susan age 10, the address was Hillside Ditton Priors Bridgnorth, I would be very grateful for anything you can find thanks Jill
