Thanks for all your help everyone The wills site was very interesting though, not sure if that Richard is same as mine though, but have saved for future reference Stephanie

I wonder if the people mentioned in the 1846 Will on the Wills of Herefordshire site are you family? http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/HEF/ProbateRecords/WillsB.html Gwyn

Seeing as they are the eldest children, are you sure they are Bouchers? have you found births for them? There's this marriage: RICHARD BOUCHER Marriages: Spouse: MARY WILKES Family Marriage: 05 OCT 1848 Bromyard, Hereford, England Perhaps they are Wilkes? Rose

Thanks all for your help, i'm sure felina sounds pretty good at the moment but i'll take a look at each of them tomorrow, better not stay on here all night again, my husband tells me i'm addicted i'm not, i'm not, i'm not

It's been bugging me, I was sure I'd seen your folk somewhere. No wonder, my JONES /PEAKE family are just nearby in 1851, on the previous page. Lol Gwyn

And how about this for a mistranscription:-)))) Name: Felina Bowchar Age: 25 Estimated birth year: abt 1846 Relation: Servant Gender: Female Where born: Madley, Herefordshire, England Civil parish: Cirencester Town: Cirencester County/Island: Gloucestershire Country: England Registration district: Cirencester Sub-registration district: Cirencester ED, institution, or vessel: 8 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 5 Household Members: Name Age Felina Bowchar 25 Anna Brickett 40 Martha Maskell 64 Harriett Whalley 72 Source Citation: Class: RG10; Piece: 2646; Folio: 162; Page: 1; GSU roll: 835326.

How about this for Celina Name: Celia Butcher Age: 16 Estimated birth year: abt 1845 Relation: Servant Gender: Female Where born: Madley, Herefordshire, England Civil parish: Moccas County/Island: Herefordshire Country: England Registration district: Weobly Sub-registration district: Weobly ED, institution, or vessel: 12 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 22 Household Members: Name Age Celia Butcher 16 Adam Kyte 80 Elizabeth Kyte 70 Source Citation: Class: RG9; Piece: 1825; Folio: 145; Page: 4; GSU roll: 542874. I wonder which her name was?

No help to you really but just to say that I have relatives from Madley and they were very keen on being known by a different name, ..perhaps their 2nd given name but they might change about from census to census. As mine were DAVIES it is no joke. eg. My ancestor was registered at birth as Silvey......later married......but died as Jane. Gwyn

have you tried looking with the name spelt as butcher? depending on how it was said/heard depends on what was written down
