Member Since: June 2006 Posts: 1,369 Send Message	Hello, Robert Seaton, baptised 1 August 1835 (Guisborough area) marries Alice Thatcher Dec Q 1858. Alice dies March q 1862. I have them on the 1861 census at Metcalfes Yard, Guisborough. He then marries Ann Hopper Dec Q 1864 Stockton on Tees district. On the 1871 census they are at Guisborough. Robert 35 a mason, Ann 30, William 4, and George Frederick 1. I cannot find them on any of the following census returns and wonder if someone could look at the emmigration records to see if they emigrated - thank you.
