As I said earlier ...........

.............. the age shown on the 1851 record index page for Betsey is definitely WRONG


I think the image says she is 9, or possibly 2 ................. but there is a black mark through it and thus it is not quite clear. It definitely does NOT say 27!.


Betsey is a common shortened version for Elizabeth


I think therefore that Betsey on the 1851 is the Elizabeth born in 1841, and baptised much later.

Thanks. Our posts must have crossed.

The information I came across showed that Elizabeth was born in 1857 which must be wrong. The christening date is the same.

I'll get the marriage certificate.

Many thanks for your help.

Yes Sylvia, thank you. This is the William I mean. Sometimes the 'g' is missing from the surname.

The children are correct although I haven't come across Betsey before. Possibly a sister or niece.

Betsey was seemingly born before their marriage

Here are both William and Jemima in 1841, also before their marriage

Note that ages on the 1841 Census for people over the age of 15 are usually rounded down to the nearest 5 ................ hence the apparent difference in birth year and age

Have you not got the marriage cert for the name and occupation of his father ?

Hi All

I'm looking for any information on William Rampling born 1816 in Eye, Suffolk. In particular, his parents and other siblings.

William married Jemina George in 1842 and they had 9 children.

Thanks in advance

Sue
