Hi

Your Mary Ann Sisson's birth was registered in the Basford District (Notts) in Jan-Mar 1847

On the 1851 census notebook for Kimberley (Kimberley Knowle, Kimberley) (ref HO 107/2125) the following household appears :

Thomas Sisson (head) - 30 years, coal miner, born Strelley, Notts
Rachel Sisson (wife) - 27 years, domestic work, born Yorkshire
William Sisson (son) - 6 years, scholar, born Greasley, Notts
Mary Ann Sisson (dtr) - 5 years, scholar, born Greasley
Thomas Sisson (son) - 1 year, born Greasley.

Hope this helps a bit more - happy to look up further

Thank you so much I'm just dashing out the door but the main lookup im desperately hoping to trace is my grandfather if you are able to find anything on him Id be eternelly grateful
Ive Googled & messaged & e-mailed to no avail

James Ward
Irish Catholic
lived Halifax Yorks.
joined Yorkshire Royal Engineers around 1932
served in WW2
lived & worked in Halifax Yorkshire for Redmonds Engineering

thats all I have
I am about to put a notice in the local papers over there

any ideas ?

Thanks for Sisson Smiley im going to look at that more when I get home

regards Dawnbird
