	Hi there, There is a John Scott, buried in Brignall, North Yorkshire on 9 December 1861. He was 73. Can someone try and spot him in the 1841/1851 and 1861 census? I suspect he may be an ancestor of mine but not sure. Thank you, Peter

	Thank you - Brignall is close to the North Yorkshire/County Durham border. I suspect this is the same person - whether he is a relative of mine would need further work, but thank you so much. Is he on the 1841? Thank you again! Peter

	Thank you - yes that seems to be them! Can you spot a Jane Scott in the 1841 census? Living in Brignall, born 1818? I was hoping she would be in this household. Thank you, Peter
