Val, Warwick records office have the 1861 census but it is not indexed , except by parish,so it would be a very long search.....if you wait a little while the 1861 will come onto ancestry. Good luck. Joan

Hi Val, Yes - there's someone there who fits the bill. At 5 Howard Street, John is 23 years old - a Printer and Ribbon Box maker, Sarah is also 23 - a Dress Maker, and they have a Son, Henry, aged 1 year. John was born in Stoke, Coventry (as was I!) Sarah was born in Wolvey, Warks, and Henry born in Coventry. Please let me know if these are the 'right ones' Census Reference RG9/2209 Folio 102, page 1 Regards, Colin PARSONS, Coventry
