  • 1871 census help please

    Hi, I am trying to find Thomas Wilcox b. 1847 Hornton, Oxfordshire and his wife Eliza Wilcox b.1851 Hornton, Oxfordshire on the 1871 census.
    In 1881 they are mistranscribed Wilson?. They have always used the right spelling on earlier and later census' apart from maybe Thomas (their son on the 1911 who I can't find at the moment). I have tried allsorts of combinations but just can't seem to find them! They may have a daughter Caroline with them but she may not have been born before the census.
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Tessie

      All born Hornto except Caroline who was born in Warwickshire (not sure of the place)

          Glad I could help. I found them easily on fmp, but I can't find them on Ancestry. According to fmp they are in Cropredy enumeration district 8, but I can only see district 7 on Ancestry.

                I don't think there's anything wrong with Ancestry, except perhaps it doesn't have that enumeration district (is that possible??). If you'd like the image I have pm me with your email address.
