My great-great grandfather's name was Stephen Buckfield, I found this from his son's marriage cert. However, I can't find him on some of the censuses, I think I've got him in 1851 and possibly 1841, but I have no results for any until 1901 when he is with three of his sons and wife Emma. I don't know what year he was born but his son Charles was born in 1883. His son married in Croydon. Problem is according to my dad, the family were travellers, any ideas about to go about finding him? Clare
