Still looking for Thomas Dickens (sometimes Dickins) born Stewkley Buckinghamshire in 1842/3. There were lots of Thomas Dickens born around this time in Stewkley but I am certain of this date. Being new to genealogy, I don't really know what other information I can get from this census. Could I get information on who else was in the household at this time? He would have been either 9 or 10 at this time. Thanks Angie

Yes, you could get whoever was in the house with him. Surely he would be 8 or 9? Having said that, census ages can only be seen as approximations.

Thanks Geoff - I'm not totally with it this morning as I have done the nightshift. aged 8 or 9 is correct. Angie

Just a thought - I suppose this census is availiable for Buckinghamshire????
