Thank you

I knew there was a Crow in the family but had no idea where it was

That sounds funny doesn't it .What I meant was the name Crow

can I ask what is the N after the name is it Northumberland

Berwick-upon Tweed (classed as Durham in 1841 hence birthplaces 'not in county'
I should have put N 'not born in county' when I gave you the above information

N is for Not born in county, Y is for born in county. On 1841 census that's all the birthplace information you get.
So because Spittal was classed as Durham in 1841 census, if they were born in Northumberland or anywhere outside Durham county, that's the reason for the N's.  In 1851 you'll see Spittal is in Northumberland!

Thank you Barbara ,

Just picked up this mail today have been away to Arsenal to the football all day

1851 and a grandson coming all the way from London seems incredable and only 4

I must look for him as well and see who he belongs to

I think I need your help again in finding Matthew ( b Stepiny 1847) parents


I have looked for young Matthews parent at www.familysearch.org and found George and Herriot nee Williams married at Stepiny

This confusing to me as I also found the marriage and this George was born 1820  Huh Huh

Matthew sen and Mary Nee Gregson were married 1824 and have a son born 1833

So who does young Matthew who is with his grandparents in 1851 belong to

Hi Elizabeth,

Where have you looked for Matthew? Did you find him in 1861?

His birth, parents' marriage etc were member-submitted on the IGI site so dates not to be relied on  - but Matthew doesn't have to be little Matthew's father, George & Mary probably had another son George b. 1820.  Will look for him in census

Now then, in 1851 little Matthew grandson was with his grandparents George & Mary

Here he is (twice on the census, it happens sometimes!) with his mother Harriet living in the same street, husband George obviously away at sea:
