Thank you very much avm228.  I do believe that these will most likely be his parents.  I wonder how Edward went from being in Middlesex to getting to Durham.  I do wish the census had started much earlier.  I would love to know more about William and Isabella!  Edward's family background is very much a mystery. ???

  She appears to have been born in Fishburn, which I think was in Stockton.  I am not familiar with these Durham areas.

Useful place-name website  :)

Fishburn fell within Stockton Registration District but it was actually in Sedgefield Parish.

Click top right under 'Related Information' for a map of the parish.

Fishburn is actually some 12 miles north of Stockton itself.

Thank you Millipede.  It does seem as though Emma has just fallen off the face of the earth after 1871. ::)  Many thanks to you for trying to find her for me.  I think Louisa sounds a likely candidate for his sister.  I wonder if this is why his eldest daughter was called Mary Louisa?  Perhaps after his wife and sister?  There is a seven year age gap between Edward and this Louisa you mention.  I wonder if there were more siblings or perhaps just the two of them?

I wonder who this Margaret Grieveson was (1871) and how she and Emma are recorded as cousins?  Or perhaps 'cousin' is just a throwaway term given to the census taker?

At 20 in 1871 she was of marriage age but expect you have checked for marriages 1871-1881?

But is it the same Emma in 1871? It says she was born Lanchester, and now we know that the Emma being looked for is from Fishburn which is some 20 miles from Lanchester  :-\

My goodness!  This has taken my breath away avm and Millipede!! :D. You seem to have extended my knowledge of my family tree somewhat!  I think that this must be where Edward's capital came from.

Also, thank you Jen for the helpful links.  You are always able to find helpful links. I really appreciate this :)

RootsChatters are amazing!  Can't wait to share these new developments with my family.  :D
