Could someone find for me in the 1851/1861 census the following family please.
Elijah Bradbury in the Walsall/Rushall, Staffs area. I would like to find out more about his family. I think his wife's name was Eliza/Elizabeth. I think they married in 1847.

Thanks in advance. Roberto,.

Hello again Light,

Thanks once again for finding this one for me. Quite a few questions have been answered by the 1861 census. Cheers, Roberto.
