yeah its the gold dust i am hoping to find

i have the issue that georges wife and sister who were both with him in 1851 have disappeared

the wife appeared again in 1871 living still in durham but with her daughter and her family but then dissapeared again the daughters family stayed living in the same place till they died so the mother if she died might be buried in the same cemetry ( belmont) hence i am after to grave index and map for there

all a shot in the dark

hi pennines

i think this is the george burial i want but i could not find a cemetery map or grave index for it

my family were journey man workers so did not have a lot of money so very inlikely to have a stone i also think part of this cemetery may have been cleared for houses?

thanks for looking

Hello

It was more about the people who worked there and where they came from. Did the towns family still own the turkey mill in 1850.

Are there any rates, poll books for the keighly area etc 1845 - 1850

Regards

Susannah Muir died in cornforth in 1903

James was married in Scotland in 1852 but the record only mentioned bride a grooms name and brides fathers name.

A had a look at Helen smart Muir birth, it only told us what we already new and that they are the hunslet family. I did again say James was born in edinburgh.

I did try and find a George Muir with a sister jannet Watson but according to 51 census she would have been born in the 1770's so no luck

John Muir would have been the oldest child and aged 19ishmay have left home, I know he was in durham pre 1850 because that's when he married Susana

Thanks for your help in the search

I will certainly take a look at the birth certificate of James child as you suggest

My John Muir in 1881 is living in lasswade with wife susannah

They were married in Durham 1850 on the marriage cert said father George occupation papermaker

They moved to jarrow in 1851 census (mistranscribed as meir) they had his brother Alexander Muir born around 1827 papermaker

Catherine daughter is living in Durham 1851 census as boarder with John harness/McLean/McLen
She married him in 1855 her father is George Muir. They stayed in Durham as McLen/mclean and in 1871 census had Jane Muir living with them.

Lilias was in goose eye with father and mother etc in 1851 which is not far from hunslet hence my thoughts with that James. Lillias then married a Robert Hunnam from ford Sunderland where they moved too and lived on several census. Since she married someone from that area she and her father must have been in that area before 1851 (there was a ford papermill) for Lillias and Robert to meet

So family names match, ages match they were in the same locations at the same time but to confirm 100% I need to find there births.

Thanks for looking
