Hello If your 1834 estimate is quoted from the 1881 census then it probably really means April 1833 - March 1834 The Cornwall Census Project is one of the most advanced and even what isn't on FreeCEN can sometimes be found as text online. freepages(.)genealogy(.)rootsweb.com/~kayhin/ukocp(.)html 1841 census Folio 54 Page 29 here's a possibility, tho' the Fanny is a year or so too old. Park Bracket,1,Richard Retallack,60,,Labourer Highways,In county, ,,Jenifer Retallack,,50,,In county, ,,Margaret Retallack,,15,Mine Girl,In county, ,,Phillis Retallack,,20,Mine Girl,In county, ,,Fanny Retallack,,9,,In county, and in 1891 Folio 125 Page 10 Wesley Street,1,Fanny Retallack,Head,S,,57,Laundress,Employed,Camborne Cornwall,, Camborne doesn't seem to be available yet for the other censuses. You'd better check my findings but they look plausible. I just use the browser "find" function to find the text-string (i.e. name) I'm after. cheers Christine
