Delving a little deeper in to the Census records, I found William in 1851 with his mother (Annas) and four siblings, no father.
The same five siblings and the mother (Annis here) appear in 1841, although the surname has been mis-transcribed as Benne. Still no father present, and a further two siblings who aren't present in 1851.
Researching whilst blogging; if I've traced William Bound correctly, my wife's ggg grandfather, his brother Edward married Sarah (shown as Bound) and with her son, George Cutler (b. c1837).
In Boldre in 1841, Sarah appears with husband William and a daughter this time, Eliza Ann (b c1840). George is not present. It is possible that George is with his father's family in Andover at the time, although that's supposition.
It's late. I'm tired. Scratch the last stuff about Edward. He couldn't possibly be in the same 1851 Census twice and have different birth years.
ReplyDeleteI'll take a fresh look at it over the next few days.
