Thanks Jen,

Bishop transcripts for St Helens not available at the moment, I did not realise that this church covered West Auckland  and South Church areas.

I've just checked - they are definitely there. It is only image 1 which is not available.

That place-name index I gave earlier is worth its weight in gold, and well worth book-marking.
The Genuki place-name index is also excellent http://www.joinermarriageindex.com/pjoiner/genuki/DUR/fullindex.html

Do you have Ralph, Mary and their son Joseph on the 1851 census? If so, where were they living and does it say where Joseph was born.

I don't have info on the Ralph Forster who married Mary - what I was meaning was that the Ralph Forster born 1829 whose parents were Thomas and Ann Forster wasn't the one who married Mary ...he married Elizabeth Brunskill in 1853.

Not sure which Ralph you are after, the one marrying Mary or the one marrying Elizabeth.

If its the one marrying Mary :

1851 census, Garth House, Mickleton, Yorkshire.
Ralph Foster, 26, Lead Miner, b. Middleton, Durham.
Mary ", wife, 26, b. Romaldkirk, Yorkshire,
Jno Addison, son, 5, b. Middleton, Durham,
Jos Foster, son, 1, b. Mickleton, Yorkshire,
HO107/2387/553/16

There is a Margaret Addison next door, age 60, could be Marys mother.

Ralph Forster married Mary Addison 16 May 1849 Wolsingham.
