Important to know that the 1871 census has been corrected by an Ancestry user who can be contacted through that site. The user has not given any indication of whether they are related, though.

The image actually says "Hagan", which would be a phonetic misspelling of "Egan", it seems.

I replied to David's PM in less than 10 minutes, asking him to please reply in the thread, but he has not read my PM.


"yes i have this info just cant seem to find him or his family in 1871 many thanks david hullah"


Presumably about my post re the 1891 census.

I assume you have read the other replies now, since all of them were here when you sent the private message to me.

The family in 1871 is as posted above by Lindsey (she had posted while I was composing my post), is it not?
