Thanks everybody for your help. i didn`t see them in the 1861 census. i was just hoping for some pre1837 information on the Bull family ,which gives me a better idea of where they came from. They are actually my wife`s relatives and have not always been that easy to find as they later worked on the railways and moved around alot
thanks again
