Thread: Dodson of Slaithwaite

Hi I was wondering if anyone could lookup this family in the 1841/51 census please



JOHN DODSON born 1792 Slaithwaite, Huddersfield

JANE DODSON c 1792 wife Huddersfield



Have seen a possible John on the 1851 age 58 Slaithwaite, So if someone could find that one please.

Not even sure if Jane still about at that time but John deffo died by 1861.



both known children married by 1840

I know it isn't much to go on but anything would help.

thank you Michelle

I think this is the 1851 detail you were thinking of. Don't know if there's anything with Jane as wife. Still to look for 1841.

I've had the best look I can through the 1841 Census, and cannot find John & Jane together, but neither can I find a death for Jane.



If there's any more info that may help, happy to have another look.

Hi Michelle,



What are their children's names?



What year were the children born?



What are you trying to establish from this request?



Sorry for all the questions, but, if for example you are looking for Janes maiden name, there may be resources we can use other than the census.

Hi Thanks for the info i think it has to be the Elizabeth one not the Ann one.

The reason i was looking for John and Jane was to see if she was alive as I have only found 2 children Edward born 1817 and George 1819 have the marriage for John and Jane Ashton 1813 so i guessed if she wasn't on the census anywhere that she died between 1820-1840 and if so then I wondered if he married someone else so I am going to see if Elizabeth comes up anywhere for him. As Elizabeth comes up on both 41 and 51 then i guess i will be looking for a marriage before 1840.

I know when he died so i knew he was on the 51 and 41 but not the 61.

This was a sorta last chance to find out after all the other resourses i have explored were not conclusive.

Forgot to say i know where the 2 children are on the census logs.

Thank you again.
