Find Ancestors

Linda, Can I be cheeky please and ask you to look up 2 families in the 1851 (but they should be living next door to each other) Toft Hill, comes under Evenwood Barony. William Walton about 40 Elizabeth 35 William 19 Elizabeth Thomas Charlotte Is a Jane Hall living with them please. and next door (hopefully) George Nasbit about 35 Catherine 40 John George Is there Elizabeth Walton with them? and any other siblings if poss. Thanks for you help Kim

Bev - that is too vague I am afraid, there is no index, and there are about 1200 pages for South Shields alone in one year. It is mind numbing going through page after page, I need an address or village or district even - for instance South shields could be Jarrow, Harton, Westoe, Simonside, Marsden etc. sorry I can't help Linda

Maureen, can't find Benbridge - did find a Benridge Farm, Monkhesledon, but your family weren't there. Have looked at Monkhesledon pages and for Wingate without success sorry Linda

Hi Linda, Would you mind checking the 1851/61 Durham census for a James Robson ANGUS born 1850 in Darlington. Father was Joseph ANGUS (mother unknown at this stage). Hope that's not too vague for you. Thanks very much. Best wishes....Zoe, Wellington, NZ

Shan, sorry couldn't locate him Linda

Zoe in Wellington - can you give me anything else to work on - there are too many pages to go through unless you can narrow down an address or area Linda

Sandra, there are lots and lots of Pearts in Weardale - which covers a large area too. Can you narrow it down at all, is it Stanhope, St Johns Chapel Eastgate etc etc? Linda

Hello Linda - Thanks for the offer! Can you please look for John Thomas Bulmer who was born in Kyo about 1848. I'm hoping he'll still be there for the 1851. In 1871 he had his first child (Daniel) who was born in Kyo. John's wife was called Margaret. Thanks! Lisa
