I can't find a James & Isabella who might fit - sorry, but this 'could' be 'your' Isabella on 1841??

On FreeBMD, there are no male Guys who married female Whitfields, anywhere.

Also, no male J W Guys born in Durham around the right time. (See 1881 census above)

Only these:

Births Sep 1868 (>99%)
GUY John George Durham 10a 321
GUY John Thomas Durham 10a 347
Births Dec 1869 (>99%)
Guy John George Durham 10a 274

Births Dec 1873 (>99%)
Guy John Durham 10a 429

There is, however, a J W Gee:

Births Sep 1870 (>99%)
Gee Joseph William Durham 10a 336

Possibly son of the William Gee living with Mary and family in 1861, as posted by Mel above?

Can't see a Gee/Whitfield marriage. Maybe illegitimate?

On Ancestry, someone has corrected William Magee to William Gee on the 1851 census (posted by Quinsgran in OP)

ArgyllGran

ArgyllGran Report 21 Mar 2013 11:36

Joseph William Gee, born 1870, may not be the son of a Whitfield at all. William Gee was Joseph Whitfield's stepson, so could have married anyone.

One of these,perhaps?

For some reason, although the transcript lists Mary Whitfield, 23, daughter, she's not on the image. Mary Martin is, I think, Quinsgran's Mary.

Your welcome. I did look at the William Gee and wondered if the Ma had'nt been heard by whoever took the census sown. Then I had to go and do something for my other half.

Jane Ann is the wrong age and born the wrong place

Found on familysearch

Joseph William Gee 1870 Shotley Bridge Durham parents William Gee and Mary Ann
Arthur Gee 1877 Shotley Bridge parents William Gee and Mary Ann

George Emerson Gee 1877 Shotley Bridge parents William Gee and Mary Ann

This looks like Arthur

1881 census
John Bainbridge 1852 Tanfield Durham
Thomasin wife 1856 Shotley Bridge
Arthur Gee visitor 1873 Shotley Bridge

John William Bainbridge married Thomason Hall in 1874 Durham
So Arthur must be nephew of Thomason Hall???

Can you follow this family after 1881 or Arthur Gee

Thank you
