Hi Dave,

In 1861, John’s family - Alexander 69, Sarah 63, Mary 26 and Ellen Holland 16 are in the Shiffnal RD.

Class: RG9; Piece: 1853; Folio: 3; Page: 2

Searches for John Davidson, born 1840 +/- 2 in Staffordshire/Shiffnal/Weston showed no positive results (although many of his namesakes showed up)!

Perhaps he emigrated to Aus before the census was taken!

Regards,

Dave
