Welcome to the boards, Chas.

Margaret posted that in 2005, and unfortunately she is no longer a member of GR, so won't be looking for replies here, and can't be contacted through the site.

If you would like help tracing your family, please give us details of what you would like to find out.

They're easily found in 1861 and 1851, and William's in Easingwold in 1841, before his marriage.
Margaret, widowed, is on 1891 and 1901 censuses.

Birth of their eldest child, who is with them in 1851 census, aged "under 1 month":

PALEY, ISABELLA mmn HOLLIDAY
