  • 1851 census search for John Moss

    Help please! I am looking for a John Moss in the 1851 census. I dont know where he was born or when but he married Martha Austin in 1845Kinsley, Staffordshire. She was born 1821 Kinsley, Staffordshire. Children were Eliza b 1848 Cheadle, Staffordshire, William b 1850, Kingsley, Staffordshire, Emma b 1852, Cheadle, Staffordshire, and Sarah Ann b 1857Cheadle, Staffordshire. By 1861 Martha is a widow but they must be somewhere in 1851!!!

          I searched for
          * William born 1850 +/- 1 year -
          * born in Staffordshire
          * mother Martha

          and then just scrolled through the results looking for a possible mistranscription.

            Thought William might be too common :p
