Just a quick post in case my earlier offer disappears into oblivion! I have the above census on CDROM and am more than willing to do lookups for anyone who wants one. If you have access to Microsoft Word I can simply copy and paste the results and email them to you. Sally, Coventry

Hi Sally, I wonder if you can find any Joesburys in Warwickshire. My great grandmother was born there in 1859 but I havent found her parents.She was called Eliza Joesbury but obviously wouldnt be around for 9 years. Thanks Jennie

Hi Kathleen! I cannot find a Charles Brock in Devonport (although there is one in Exworth, dunno where that is?) so it looks like he wasnt born by the time of the census. However, there is 2 Brock households in Devonport listed. If you want to email me directly, I can copy and paste the info into a return email for you. Regards Sally

Hi Sally, Just seen your offer. Could you see if you can find anything about John Shaw born Sept 1845 in Norfolk, Thetwade or Wayland district I think. He had at least two clildren, William and Mary Jane, and I would appreciate any furhter information you might be able to help with i.e. wifes name, year of birth. Thanks in advance. Linda Cooper.

Hi Linda! I cant find any entries for the two places you mentioned. But there is a John Shaw aged 5 in Bridgham Norfolk. Do you think this might be the one? If not I can have another look. Do you know any of his siblings names? That might help me pinpoint him as they would also be still living at home. Look forward to hearing from you! Sally, Coventry

Hi Ann! There are 3 Susannah Vanstones listed in Devon on the Census, do you think any of these might help: Susannah B1835 Highampton Susannah B1845 Inwardleigh Susannah B1848 Black Torrington Do you have any other info I could work on? Do you know her DOB roughly? Email me directly with any other info you may have, that way I can cut and paste results straight back to you. Regards Sally
