I know this is a long shot!. 

But I am actually stuck on my White line..
Is there anyone with access to the archives that would be able to help me please.

I have a Thomas White... who married in Durham.. in Nov 1851

Listed as being 28 a bachelor.. and his father being listed as Thomas White a Lead Miner.

makes him born about 1823/24

from the marriage on living in Durham
1861 living at Brancepeth Colliery
Thomas White aged 38 born Lampla, Cumberland

1871 living at Coxhoe
aged 46, born ??

1881 living at Ryman Street, Wingate
aged 57 born Whitehaven

1891 living at Tudhoe, Spennymoor with his married dau
aged 67 born Lampley, Cumberland.

he dies in 1899 aged 75 years from Natural Decay

I would love to be able to track his family further back.. Find out who his mother was etc..

Find him in 1851 or even 1841 Censii... would be a start.. but I have looked and looked but so far cannot find him in either census..

There's nothing that jumps out on the IGI... for a baptism for him.. either...
so taking a guess the place where he was born must not covered by the IGI

I have no mother's name to go on... and just the details from the marriage cert.... giving his father as Thomas..

Any super Sleuths out there... that could help

I live in Durham.. but dont drive which makes it difficult to get across to Cumbria

Anyone like a challenge?
