Hi Chris

Here are your BLAKER enquires from the Lewes Census transcription of 1851.  

Have just realized that I have posted 23 replies on RootsChat in the last 24 hours - got to give my fingers a rest I think.

            Mary A, Dau, Unm, 49, born Lewes

NB.  Lewes was split into 8 separate Registration Districts – each with its own Church; if you know which district it helps to narrow down which church they may have attended – helps locate possible location of grave..
1. St Michael, South Malling
2. St John the Baptist, Southover
3. St Peter/ St Mary Westout (outside castle walls to the west)
4. St Michael
5. Castle Precincts
6. St John Sub Castro (inside / under the Castle)
7. All Saints
8. St Thomas / Cliffe
