Hi Jess - Thanks for the offer. I have Thomas Bushell b. 1801 wife Mary and family living Halsall, Lancs on 1841 census, living Stannaught Bldgs, Liverpool 1851 census but have no trace after that. Amongst the above family is son Nathan b. 1836 who married Margaret Porter in 1855 in Liverpool. I have lost track of both these two families in 1861. By 1871 Nathan and Margaret have moved to Jarrow, Co Durham and I have them there. Thomas & Mary I imagine could have died by 1871. Are you able to trace either/both these families in 1861 ? I would be most grateful for any help you can give. Thanks again

Hello Jess, I have been tracing the footsteps of John Potter b 1831 in Pocklington E York but, so far unable to locate in 1861 census. He would have been married by that time to Olive Brightwell in 1856 in St Mary Lambeth but I am unsure where he would have been living. My guess is either Middlesex or Yorkshire. His mother was Ellen Potter but either she was unmarried or I have not found his father as yet. Many thanks Diana

janice - ancestry doesn't really cover that late. You'll have to hunt 1837, need a better idea of 'when' though really
