Thread: 1851 and 1861 census look up please

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 Light, yes i would like the 1851 if poss.

Welsh Lady, thanks to you also. Elijah must have died before the 1861 census. Still i will keep your dates on record until proved.

Roberto.
