Pamela Report 4 May 2010 20:26

I am looking for Sarah Brown, wife of Richard Berry, age 39 on 1851 census, when birth place is given as Notts. 1841 census birth place looks like Norwich she is age 25. - 1861 it looks like Nottingham and she is 49 - 1871 she is 59 and birthplace is Nottingham
I am estimating her birth year as 1812 - can anyone veryfy this? I don't have Nottingham or Yorks records

I have found an IGI record for Sarah Brown marriage to Richard Berry in Rothwell Yorkshire 9 Dec 1833

Any help will be appreciated

If this is the Sarah you are looking for on the 1841,then the N means not born in the County.In other words she wasn't born in Norfolk.

There seems to be two Richards and Sarah's.

Richard Berry 4/12/1808 in leicester which Pamela has and Richard born 1812? in Alverthorpe Rothwell Yorkshire,the latter being the one married to Sarah Ann Brown on 9/12/1833.

Thank you Sharon, Ellen Mary, Liz and Sue in Leeds.

It's great to get feed back - I'm not used to using this comm. area and am a bit slow but appreciate everyone's input and I will try looking in other trees - not done that yet.

The suggestion that it could be Sarah Harris has set me searching in that direction. Sometimes family members pop up in later census records.

Thanks again
Pamela

Liz, thanks for the suggestion, I have found a couple of trees with Richard berry so hopefully one could be mine, with Sarah ???? I have written re two.
