Cumberland Lookup Requests / Crawford Lookup 1871
« on: Tuesday 20 September 05 12:51 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I have traced the Crawford Family back to Workington Cumberland in the 1881 census.  My current research from the 1881 census indicates John crawford (aged 63) of Uldale Street, Workington and his wife Ann (aged 55).

Therefore best guess at dates of birth are 1818(John) and 1826(Ann) they give there origins as Irish, hence I am stuck, can anyone help, please, particularly with there origins.

I know they had at least four children, so their marriage (which I have to assume is in Ireland) had to be prior to 1859.

There has to be a lot more children out there, but the four I have located so far are Thomas 1859 Irish origin; Mary1861 and Maggie 1861(both of Irish origin), and James 1864.

In the 1881 census it implies James was born in west cumberland, but I have virtually proved this to be incorrect.  Some people have implied it could be West Meath in Ireland.  But at present I have hit a brick wall.  ???

I would appreciate any help with any or all of the above.
