Hi

Could you give any more information, christian names, year of birth etc, after having a quick look, I can see there are numerous pages for the name Scarr on the 1901.  I happy to look if you can provide some more details  :)

Dear Jane

Thank you very much.

This seems to be my mob. Maybe the census person got there areas spelt incorrect or streets mixed up?? Or the area changed names??? Or they just liked moving.Was there alot of redevelopment back then in Durham?
Thanks for a mammoth effort.
This will keep me busy for a few hours sorting the families into their jigsaw pieces.

Cheers

Cockerton is actually part of Darlington - it was part of Darlington Holy Trinity Parish until 1901, when it became a Parish in its own right, see http://tinyurl.com/32t2fs

Hi Wozzle

Not researched the family as much but more than likely they will tie in somewhere close.
