Member Since: August 2005 Posts: 287 Send Message	Hi all I am wondering if anyone can look up a family in the 1841 and 1851 census? I am looking for birthplaces of a Charles Garland and his wife Mary Garland formerly Rice. I know they had a daughter (Jane Garland) born in 1839 in North Petherton, Somerset. According to her birth cert. Charles was a Basket Maker, I do not know if he still is at the time of census. I do not know Charles or Mary birth dates but I would guess at around 1820 or so. I have ordered their marriage cert, but am still waiting for it, so will not know a birth year until then. Thank you Craig
