Have been given the name Waner Blake age 16 from 1851 Suffolk census. Any ideas as to what else this name could be, he is male, have looked under Walter, Warner, run out of ideas. Thanks Rosalie.

Sorry Rosalie - I've had a look at all census and couldn't find anything to help. The only Blake Born in Thorndon in 1835 was a Thomas !! Good Luck Esta

Thanks very much Esta. Yes I have THomas with his family, can't tie them in to my tree yet, but have a note of all Blakes I come across in my searches, quite a thick pile now!! LOL. Came across a Hepah (female) which turned out to be Kezia !!!!! when I examined the census page. thanks Ros.
