Thought they started in 1841 Sue .. have got into this a little myself, if you hear of any, please post .. probably just Parish records.

Somebody posted here recently (cant find the thread unfortunately) about different names at each census. I came across this with my great grandfather .. slightly different name at birth, marriage/other census's and death .. was because they were all hand written and the 'registrars' interpretation of the handwriting. Apology for the wander.
