Does anyone have access to an 1871 census, or know if one even exists. Everytime I look for an ancestor, she is listed as as a servant in another household, and I would like to find out who her family was. If anyone can help its a search for a Susan Elizabeth Lovely, who would have been under 10 in 1871. She was probably from the south of england. Its an unusual name, so should be easy to find!

On familysearch there is a Susan Elizabeth Lovely christened 27/5/1866 at Whaddon, Cambridgeshire, mother Sarah Lovely, father Charles Reed. (There is a Sarah Reed christened at the same church 6/3/1872 but the father in this case is Daniel Reed, not Charles, mother Sarah.)

Many thanks - thats just what I was looking for. Its really nice to have a forum where people can ask to share resources like this, as not everyone has the same sources.

Pleased to help and that it was the right one. As it happened it was really easy and you can double-check by following the link on the left to the Church of Latter Day Saints site (familysearch (.) org) and searching on the name.
