Curious abt Ridgacre 1871 census? William Huburn ?

Brilliant, I'm still a novice after 10 yrs.

That's my last throw of the dice. It somehow slots in, just so annoying I carnt get a birth. cert for William. Not sure was there s ruling or yr when births had to be registered? Thnx again, bit more positive.

1871 wow, my ignorance where is Ridgacre? How is surname spelt please, cheers.

P.S. if the variation of surname is from Huburn to Houghbourne it could be Caroline? Sounds similar, big difference. Stab in the dark might be correct. Thnx again.
