Hi Bailey,
William Cate/Catt b. Nov 1825 is my great great Grandfather who immigrated to Australia
on the 23 July 1851 with his wife Mary, whom he married on the 15 July 1851.
The 1851 English census doesn't reveal William at that house where his
"brother" Lester Catt resided that evening - 36 Seven Oaks, Westfield, Sussex
The 1851 Census was done on the 30 march 1851 - - 3 and 1/2 months before he marries and
departs England
However - there is William Cate in the 1841 Census (age 15) is residing with his Mother
Elizabeth (father Richard not there on that evening) in the parish of West Dean, and
logically William is not at that house in the 1851 Census
so at this stage I don't have evidence that William is Lester's brother - is there
anything that you can find at your end to confirm ?
thanks again
Paul Cate
