Hi Maggi Sorry but Goring is not included in the Oxon 1851 or 1861 census,it is in the Berkshire census as at that time it was in Berkshire. Regards Mary

Hi Denise(again) Great that you have got more info from a living source. here is some more for you to ponder: 1871 census Living at New Land Street,Chipping Wycombe,Bucks Thomas Howlett 38 Head Farm Labourer b Chinnor,Oxon Mary Ann Howlett 32 Wife b Little Marlow,Bucks John Howlett Son 8 Scholar b Chipping Wycombe James Howlett Son 5 Scholar b Chipping Wycombe George Howlett Son 3 b Chipping Wycombe 1841 census Living in Chinnor Street,Chinnor,Oxon Robert Howlett 50 Ag Lab Mary Howlett 40 Sarah Howlett 15 Martha Howlett 12 Thomas Howlett 8 Mary Howlett 7 All born Oxfordshire For some reason Chinnor disappears from Oxfordshire on the 1851 and 1861 censuses,I think it is included as part of Bucks. Try Susie Manterfield for the Bucks 1851 census,she has a thread on genes and is always happy to help(she has done a lookup for me with my Bucks ancestors). Sorry I cannot help further. Good luck and all best wishes Mary

Hi Fiona Sorry the lists on Ancestry are very early before your folks were born. If you google passenger lists there are a lot of sites you can search for free. Good luck Mary

George, Sorry but I cannot find anything for the France family on 1891. I have searched for each of them individually but nothing that fits. Must be that spaceship again or that Miss Transcription. Regards Mary

George

George Report 16 Feb 2005 00:06

He was born 1865ish in Wigan according to the 1881, His 2 girls were both born Oldham according to the 1901 Almost certainly he'll be in Lancashire somewhere

Hi Denise I have found a birth for Leonard Howlett Dec Qtr 1898 Thame 3a 828. I looked for him on the 1901 census but could not find him in Thame. However I found Zillah age 8 as a Boarder in what appears to be a small private school in Atherington,Devon. I also found a Leonard Howlett of the right age living in Tring,Herts could this be the one but says born in Tring. I think you will need to send for his birth cert to confirm parents. There are a lot of Howletts in Thame on the 1901 so you really need that birth cert. All kind regards I just knew I would hear from you again. Mary
