Hi, I seem to be stuck. I have a George Norris born 1824(bap 25.4.1824) in Tring. Im am trying to trace him in the census and although i have him in the 1841 census, im just not sure where he is in the later census's. There is another George Norris born in 1824 in watford and i just dont want to confuse them. This one is not connected to me. Thanks for any advice Mark |

Hi, When tracing my tree i did start with me, i worked upwards , i then started working across and now i am working downwards again. I know my Georges parents, siblings, aunts and uncles. How can i get around this. Thanks Mark |

Mark that is the easiest way to follow the wrong family, sorry to sound a grouch but you need to start with yourself & work backwards, that is the only sure way of following the right line. Georgina. |

Mark there is no easy answer to that question unless you buy all the marriage certificates which could be him & cross check his fathers name. Have you thought he might have died? Deaths Dec 1841 (>99%) NORRIS George Albert Berkhampstead 6 332 Deaths Mar 1844 (>99%) NORRIS George Arthur Berkhampstead 6 383 Deaths Sep 1848 (>99%) Norris George Berkhampstead 6 343 Georgina. |
