Hi I cannot seem to find the Stokes family in 1851. In 1841 the father Samuel and wife Sarah are living in Brentford with a James and Susan Nixon (Sarah's parents). I know Samuel was a Waterman/Lighterman and that is his occupation.
In 1851 Samuel and Sarah have two surviving children Ambrose (born 1845) and Susan/Susannah (born 1949). Samuel was born around 1812 in Brentford and Sarah was born around 1813. I tried Brentford as they always appear to be in or around this area and other areas but cannot locate them.
In 1861 I have located Ambrose aged 15 aboard HMS Icarus as a boat boy in Portsmouth but again cannot find any other Stokes. Sarah the mother died in 1959 but Samuel did not die until 1869. Susan/Susannah would have been aged around 12ish.
Can anyone help?
Thanks
Steven
