1851 census John Lankshear and family 

SKS  had the 1851 Census Name index for Clerkenwell and found these  and  That is all the LANKSHEAR's I could find.

HO107/1516  245r or 476r  (confusing placement of number)
John    Aged 37
Elizabeth  Aged 36
Henry  Aged 7
William   Aged 2
Richard   Aged 1 month
These must be my great grand parents but grandfather Thomas is not at home should be age 3 

H107/1515 Clerkenwell Page 465
16 St Johns Square John Lankshear 37 Pocket Book Maker Surrey, Southwark
Elizabeth 36 Worcester
Henry 7 Scholar Clerkenwell
William 2 "
Richard 1m "

Henry is presumably John Henry (1871 Census John Henry LANKSHEAR and family)

Both (John) Henry and William are correct age

Birth places enlarged as Worstead Worcs is no strange for Elizabeth


?

 

Re Richard now I see a nurse and he is not known later I assume he died as an infant and perhaps required both mother and nurse attention hence Thomas is elsewhere 

The Worstead for Elizabeth is confusing as in 1861 census she said Oxfordshire and added 1871 Banbury 
see 1816 ELIZABETH SHAW Christening and sister Anne
   I have asked for a recheck of census

1861 census John Lankshear and family
