Hi there, looking for my relative Mary Bowman in the 1911 census. She was born c. 1840, in Yarm, Yorkshire or Stockton, County Durham, wife of John Bowman.

I have her last in the 1871 census, that shows Mary's family living with John Swale, a 35 year old lodger and tinner, who was, like Mary, supposedly born in Yarm, Yorkshire. Also with him his suspect wife Mary, a hawker, born c. 1845 in Stokesley, Yorkshire, and a one year old boy named Ellick Swales, born in South Stockton, Yorkshire.

Thank you.
