Have not had this before so asking those in the know, how do you go about tracing French births?
Have this family 1851, Isabella is the person I am tracing through a marriage (what marriage by the way to Thomas Hurst) as she is quite some lady, have her details and other marriages
1851 Census.
Bonners Lane, St. Mary, Leicester.
Thomas Clay Age 49 Head Married Occupation Warp Hand. Born Leicester
Louisa Clay Age 45 Wife Married Born Leicester
George Clay Age 19 Son Unmarried Occupation Warp Hand Born Leicester
Isabella C. CLAY Age 17 Daughter Unmarried Occupation Fancy Knitter Born Leicester
Jacques Edward Clay Age 13 Son Occupation Winder Born France.....Lille later census
Jean Baptiste Clay Age 11 Son Occupation Winder Born France
Joseph E. J. Clay Age 9 Son Occupation Winder Born France
Sarah A. O'Connor Clay Age 3 Daughter Born Leicester
Isabella is a Chapman Clay and the boys J is Jones which is their mother's maiden name
and also, could a child have a private Catholic christening 1861 if the parents weren't married? the child wasn't expected to live and did die at 2wks old
