Hi Prickles,

Sorry been out all day. thank you for looking for her I like you think the 1856 death is her, I think the next thing to do is find their burial's and see if they are in the same grave.

Mary does not appear on the 1861 census.......and there is not an appropriate death for her between 1851 and 1861.

I am wondering if the 1856 death is her and the "t" has been missed out.

Hi Prickles,

Thank you so much you have been busy while I've been out for my walk. Lots there for me to do.
Robert Saxton did die in 1851 I found his death in the 19th century newspapers, not sure now if Mary Saxton did die in 1856 that was a Mary Saxon I missed off the T when I typed it into Freebmd.

Again Thank you

Wendy
