Hi Paul,

Glad you have joined us.

I have been perusing my copy of the 1851 Census of Devon, Norfolk and
Warwick for the first time. Here are the entries to do with Lake and
Heavitree.

Extract from 1851 Census of Devon, Norfolk and Warwick by LDS.
(date of birth calc. from age given on census)

LAKE associated with Heavitree, Devon
Christian        date of birth      place of birth              place of
census
LAKE    Anne    Wife    <1794   Clyst Honiton-Dev   Heavitree
LAKE    Charles Son <1850   Heavitree-Dev   Heavitree
LAKE    Elizabeth   Wife    <1825   Heavitree-Dev   Heavitree
LAKE    Geore   Son <1832   Heavitree-Dev   Heavitree
LAKE    Jacob   Head    <1798   Exeter-Dev  Heavitree
LAKE    John    Head    <1824   St Thomas-Dev   Heavitree

LAKE    Mary    Daur    <1841   Heavitree-Dev   Heavitree

LAKE    Caroline    Daur    <1843   Heavitree-DEV   St Thomas Apostle
LAKE    Charles Son <1837   Heavitree-DEV   St Thomas Apostle
LAKE    Elizabeth B. Eliza  Daur    <1839   Heavitree-DEV   St Thomas Apostle
LAKE    John    Head    <1804   Heavitree-DEV   Broad Clist
LAKE    John    Son <1846   Heavitree-DEV   Exeter St Sidwell

The only Mary there seems a little early (b. 1841) but the data might help
in the future. If one entry looks interesting, I can look up the household.

I also saw this on the Devon list today:

The Society of Genealogists has a large collection of
microfilm/fiche/transcript copies of Devon parish registers.  The full
list of what they have is on their web site: www.sog.org.uk - folow the
Library link to find the list of holdings by county.

Cheers,

Frank
