Yorkshire (North Riding) Lookup Requests / 1851 lookup for BAXTER in Guisbro
« on: Wednesday 03 August 11 00:58 BST (UK) »
Hello,
I'm looking for a James BAXTER b. circa 1830. He married my 3xGreat-Grandma, Margaret (MILBURN or EMERSON) in August of 1851. Then, his residence was "Guisbro" (as spelled on the certificate), and he was a sawyer, same occupation as his father, Thomas.
The 1851 census must have been taken before their marriage. I think I found my Margaret, age 17, with a Wm. BOYES family in Guisbrough, sub-registration district Lofthouse. (Got this from another source; unsure whether she was a servant or relative there.)
Can anyone locate 20/21-year-old James in 1851? There's a Thomas BAXTER, sawyer, in Walsoken, Cambridgeshire (born in Walsoken, Norfolk), but no James among the family. And the same family in 1841 doesn't have a James among their children, when he should be there at age 10/11 with the other kids. (Unless the one who was transcribed as 11-year-old Thomas is actually "James"?)
Thank you for checking!
