According to the census. the parents I am looking for were Moses Harris [b Warsaw, Poland 1829] and Esther T Samuel [b Chatham, Kent 1831].

They had 10 children - Isaac, Harriet [sometimes spelled Harieat], Catherine, Miriam, Israel, Samuel, Hannah, Amelia, Annie, Solomon & Reuben - called Henry [who was my grandfather].

Hopefully this is a connection to you????

Regards

Rob Harris

Sorry Robin, should have given you the site

www.gro.gov.uk

You have to register first but that is free, just makes everything easier the next time .
They will ask if you have the ??"something" number (Mental blank).. you tick yes.
It just means do you have the Vol & page numbers.
Cost about 7 pounds
