Warlands in Cambridgeshire
1841 Census
See this link for details of the Worland families in Cambridgeshire.
The relationship between Thomas Warland (born 1806, Cambridgeshire, aged 35) a farmer, and Jane Warland (born 1809, Cambridgeshire, aged 32) in the 1841 census is not known. They may be husband and wife and their children may be listed but cannot yet be confirmed. The names do not appear to be connected with the Worland side and do not appear in the 1851 census. Perhaps they left England before 1851.
Thomas and Jane Warland should not be confused with the known family of Thomas Warland (1794 - 1845) and Elizabeth Warland (nee Duvall) (1797 - 1877) who moved from Oxfordshire to Cambridge by around 1820. Thomas and Elizabeth Warland had the following children, all of whom except Sarah (who was working as a servant in Berkshire at the time) appear in the 1841 census:
- Sarah Warland (May 1819 , bap 23 May 1819 - 16 June 1898 at 7 Knightshill Rd, West Norwood).
- Henry Warland (1821, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge - 31 October 1901 at Cambridge). See below for more information.
- Elizabeth Ellen ?(Anne) Warland (1828, bap, St Andrew the Less, Cambridge - September 1866 at Cambridge). Recorded in the 1841 census but not the 1851 census.
- Thomas George Warland (1829 at St Andrew the Less, Cambridge - June 1864 at Thetford). See below for more information.
- Louisa Warland (May 1833 at Trumpington St Cambridge - 19 April 1915 at 22 Bradmore Street, Cambridge). Recorded in the 1841 and 1851 census in Cambridgeshire.
- William Warland (1835 - 1835 at St Andrew the Less, Cambridge).
1851 Census
Henry (born 1821, aged 30) and Susanna (born 1819, aged 32) Warland
- Martha S Warland, Henry and Susanna Warland, 1850, 1, Cambridgeshire
Joseph (born 1808, aged 43) and Mary (born 1815, aged 36) Warland
- Sarah Warland, Joseph and Mary Warland, 1838, 13, Cambridgeshire
- Joseph Warland, Joseph and Mary Warland, 1841, 10, Cambridgeshire

Two probable daughters of Thomas (born 1806, aged 35) and Jane Warland (born 1809, aged 32) are also listed:
- Louisa Warland, ?, 1832, 19, Cambridgeshire
- Eliza Warland, ?, 1833, 18, Cambridgeshire
The following individuals are also listed:
- George Warland, ?, 1785, 66, Cambridgeshire. Possibly Joseph Warland (born 1796)'s older brother. This may be the same person noted in the 1841 as 'George Warland, 1786, 55, Middlesex'. If it is, it may give a clue to where the Cambridgeshire Warlands came from (Middlesex).
- Elizabeth Warland, ?, 1801, 40, Cambridgeshire. It is not known who this person is but she may be the sister of Joseph Warland (born 1796).
- Sarah Warland 1820, 31, Cambridgeshire. This person's relative is show as Elizabeth, who may be the Elizabeth in the previous dot point, who were not present (or recorded in the 1841 census). She may be the same person as Sarah Warland (born 1819 and aged 22 born in Berkshire in the 1841 census.
1861 Census
By the time of the 1861 census the Warland presence in Cambridgeshire was still quite large. There are also indications of connections with Oxfordshire Warlands. The oldest Warlands in Cambridgeshire are as follows:
- George Warland, Not stated, 1785, 76, Oxfordshire, Cambridgeshire. Clearly the same George, born 1785, recorded in 1851. Note his place of birth as Oxfordshire.
- Joseph Warland, Not stated, 1791, 70, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire. Listed in the 1851 census.
- Mary Warland, Not stated, 1797, 64, Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire. Not listed in 1841 or 1851. May be the wife of Joseph or George.
- Elizabeth Warland, Not stated, 1799, 62, Hertfordshire, Cambridgeshire. It is not clear if this is the same Elizabeth recorded in 1851 born in 1801. Again, this could be the wife of a Warland man.
The family groupings appear to be as follows:
Charles (born 1822, aged 39) and Charlotte (born 1819 in Bedfordshire, aged 42) Warland . Charles Warland with a date of birth of 1822 does not appear in the 1841 census.
- Harriett Warland, Charles and Charlotte Warland, 1844, 17, Cambridgeshire, Cambridgeshire

Henry (born 1821, aged 30) and Susanna/Susana (born 1819, aged 32) Warland. Susanna Warland may have died after the death of Elen as she is not recorded at all in the 1861 census. Henry Warland may be the one recorded in 1861 as being born in Hertfordshire in 1820, now aged 41.

1871 Census
By 1871, the census shows only eight Warlands in Cambridgeshire, and several Warlands in other locations with Cambridgeshire as their place of birth. The Warlands who were still located in Cambridgeshire were as follows (oldest to youngest):
- George Warland, 1785, 86, Oxfordshire, England, Cambridgeshire. Again, the same George, born 1785, recorded in 1851.
- Elizabeth Warland, 1799, 72, Hertfordshire, England, Cambridgeshire. The same Elizabeth, born 1799, recorded in 1851.
- Henry Warland, 1821, 50, Cambridgeshire, England, Cambridgeshire. First noted in 1851. Three of his children, Georgeanna (Georgina in 1853), George H, and Emily Grace Warland are recorded below.
- Emily I Warland, 1822, 49, Middlesex, England, Cambridgeshire. Could, potentially, be Henry Warland's second wife as his first wife Susanna (born 1819) is no longer recorded.
- Georgeanna E Warland, 1853, 18, Cambridgeshire, England, Cambridgeshire.
- George H Warland, 1855, 16, Cambridgeshire, England, Cambridgeshire.
- Emily G Warland, 1860, 11, Cambridgeshire, England, Cambridgeshire
It is not known what happened to Henry and Susana Warland's children Martha S Warland or Joshua W Warland. Martha may have married (she was 20 by 1871) and Joshua may have died.
1881 Census
The 1881 census is the first to show actual addresses. This helps to identify the Warland families more accurately. There were four main families.

Ernest Warland, born in Bletchingdon, Oxfordshire in 1842 (but not yet connected with that location, and his wife Elizabeth Warland, born in Walsall, Staffordshire, in 1843, and their children are living in and running the Barnwell Coffee Place in 1881. The birth location of their children suggest they traveled around before settling (or resettling) in this location.
