I'm trying to pinpoint a marriage for John & Elizabeth Crompton.

Could someone please see if they can find the family on the 1841 census, to see if they had older children?

There are 3 possible entries on the 1841 index for Robert Crompton b1835 +/-5, Keyword(s) Little Bolton.

I know it's a big ask, but I would be very grateful for any help with this, as I don't have a sub at the moment.

Edit: 1851 census for the family at the bottom of page 1.

Thank you.

Fredk, thank you very much for looking, but I don't think that's the family. There isn't a Robert with them and as he would have been only approx 5 years old I would have thought he would be with his parents. :-)



MarieCeleste, thank you for the baptism. :-)
