Stuck! William Barnett and his spouse Eliza

Nicholas Report 10 Jun 2020 13:37

I'd like to trace backwards from William, who was born in Central London, City of London, close to 1829 according to the 1881 census. I can't match his birth – there are so many Wiliam Barnetts born in London around then.

His wife, Eliza, was born around 1836 in Newark, Notts, according to the same census. I'd like to find her maiden name.

They spent most of their married life in Worcester, where they had several children including my great-grandmother Florence Kate Barnett (b 1878).

Thanks!

Nick
