The only definite record I have of James Buchanan is on the 1881 census. He is living in York with wife Mary and grandson Henry Albert. (RG11/4724 p17). His place of birth is given as Africa.
His daughter Ellen (b. abt 1837, Manchester) was the mother of Henry Albert. I have the Albert family pretty much covered from 1861 onwards. What I'm really looking for is more info about James Buchanan.
Another researcher has sent me a possible for 1851. James is living in Leeds with wife Catherine. His place of birth given as Antigua. (HO 107/2320 p21)
Catherine Buchanan died in 1871 but I can't find them on 1861.
Can anyone help. I have searched and searched and there is another person researching this family but neither of us has been successful. Only the 1881 record is definitely my man can anyone find him on another census or rule in or out the man on the 1851?
