I am looking for John & Lydia Davis born approx 1775 - 1785 but it might make it easier if I gave you their grandaughters name who was staying with them at the time,
Frances Care B1840 Folkestone, Kent. It was found for me under Frances a while ago but there was never a copy printed out and I badly need to know where John & Lydia Davis was born and all of the information that is possible from the Census.
I think maybe John was born in Surrey, some new information came to light yesterday and I need to confirm it.
Any help would be appreciated,
Julia
