Interestingly there is a Sarah CURTIS, 17 in household above. Is this Sarah SYKES aged 7 in 1841 census?

I mentioned her near the top of this page.  There was a Sarah CURTIS of about the right age in G'boro in 1841.

Hello again everyone.  Here are the details for George Lidgitt 1851 Census.  I have not typed out all the people on the Census.

1851
HO107 / 2106 / 44 / 14
Westlaby, Wickenby

The family name is Tougne and there are various Servants/Workers
George Lidget / 13 / Servant / Plough Boy         b. Market Rasen

I think that we have accounted for all 3 Children as quoted on reply no.14   by myself.     All the villages/hamlets named are in the area come under Caistor Registration District .  I don't know why every now and again they keep quoting Gainsborough.

Careful dee!

There was a George "LIDGETH" aged 3 in Market Rasen in 1841.  The one in Claxby was only 4 months.

Holy moly Geoff.  I had 3 George Ledgitt/Lidgett's. I was looking at the age 4 but not seeing mths next to it.  Back to the drawing board.  Thank you for that Geoff.  I've looked at that many in the last 24 hours, I'm going ga ga.

many thanks and best wishes
Dee

Amendment: There are 3 Deaths between 1841 and 1847 for George Lidgett/ Caistor

The George from Market Rasen does not belong to this family in question.

Starting to find some nice tidbits here and there about the ship. Seems the crossing wasn't very comfortable at times. The article regards the actual journey made by the Curtis family. I also wait for permission to post an excerpt from the diary of the ships doctor which reports the birth of a Curtis child during the journey.

With Tirohanga's kind permission here is the excerpt from the ship doctors diary. Isn't it just fantastic when these windows on specific days are rediscovered after all this time.
