Found a William Drummond born Marylebone aged 19 in 1851 census. I know the age is a couple of years out but could it be him? Living in Marylebone. William Drummond abt 1832 Marylebone, Middlesex, England Son - Fish and Fruit (? not clear) hawker Alice Drummond abt 1849 Marylebone, Middlesex, England Daughter St Marylebone Middlesex Anne Drummond abt 1808 Marylebone, Middlesex, England Wife - needlework Edmond Drummond abt 1839 Marylebone, Middlesex, England Son George Drummond abt 1843 MaryleboneSt Marylebone Middlesex Henry Drummond abt 1837 Marylebone, Middlesex, son William Drummond abt 1814 Fulkan, Middlesex, England Head Fish and Fruit (? not clear) hawker Diane

Did'nt find his occupation for the 1861 census, but for 1871 it's painter

What was William's occupation in 1861? There's a 22 year old William Drummond in St George Hanover Square in 1851 - a compositor by trade. Born Windsor though, not Marylebone.

Thanks for looking

I don't think they are acouple in 1851. As Judith says she seems a bit young !! Have found them in 1861 and their first child seems to be born 1853 ........that said I still can't find William in 1851. Esta *** I see you have the 1861 details - might have been an idea to have icluded them in your request it would have helped to find them in 1851 ( or would have if they were there !! )**

Here they are below in the 1861 census, unsure if they were married in 1851. Do know that sometimes william used james as his first name Arthur Hope Drummond abt 1857 Birmm, Warwickshire, England Son Birmingham Warwickshire View Record Eliza Drummond abt 1836 Nottingr, Nottinghamshire, England Wife Birmingham Warwickshire View Record James W Drummond abt 1855 Birmm, Warwickshire, England Son Birmingham Warwickshire View Record Selina Drummond abt 1853 Birmm, Warwickshire, England Daughter Birmingham Warwickshire View Record Wm J Drummond abt 1828 Marylebone, Middlesex, England Head

The year of birth you give for Elizabeth means she would only be about 14 or 15 in 1851 so I would be surprised if they were already married by then.

Do you have them in later census with any possible children details or is there the possibility that they aren't married in 1851 ?.

Can anybody find William James Drummond brn abt 1828 Marylebone, Middlesex, on the 1851 census?He could be with his wife Elizabeth brn abt 1836 in Nottingham. Could be anywhere in the uk. I've looked, but can't see them anywhere. Thanks
