Does anyone know what month the 1851 census was taken? Or how do I find out?
Thanks

Thanks Sophie..
I have been trying to find Ruth Breaker born abt 1834 in Gloucestershire.
She married Henry Simon Scrase in Dec 1851. I found a possible in the 1841 census but no trace in the 1851.
Any chance you could have a quick look? Sorry to be cheeky
Thanks

The 1851 could match with a family in 1841 called Braker

The Temple Back might give a clue as I found 1841 census family spelt Braker living in Temple Back

Have you got a copy of the marriage certificate to provide her father's name?

If she is the one shown in the 1861 census as born Bristol, Temple then the 1851 census seems a pretty good hit. It also fits with the 1841 census.

Do you need these details posting?
