• Notes

  In the 1841 census, John & Mary, ages given as 30 for both of them, are at Bancroft Lane, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire, England. They have three children: Ann 4, Martha 2, & John 1. (In the 1841 census ages above 15 were rounded down to the nearest 5 years.) In 1851, John & Mary are both age 38, still living on Bancroft Lane (number 23 or 123). John is a cotton stockinger and Mary is a seamer. They have five children: Ann 14 (twist factory hand), John 10 (scholar), Sarah 7 (seamer), Thomas 5 (scholar), and Edwin 2. In 1861 the family is at 34 Bancroft Lane, next to Joshua & Ann and family. They have seven children. In the 1871 census, John and Mary Slack, both age 59, are living at 34 Bancroft Lane, Mansfield, England. Three of their sons are in the household; Edwin and his wife Lavina (?), Gilbert, & Willie. Other Slack families are nearby on the street: John & Ann, Charles & Mary, Frederick & Mary Ann. In 1881 John & Mary, their ages given as 67, are living at 34 Botany Lane (this must be Bancroft Lane). Gilbert, 29, is with them. Next door at #35 are John & Ann and their two children, Emma & Edward. Also nearby on the same street, #38, are Frederick & Mary Ann and their children; and at #36, Charles & Mary and their children.
