COMPLETED - 1841 census CRAGGS please

[SandraC]

Hi

Thanks to Ticker for 1851 info.

Looking for Thomas Craggs b 1796, Ellingstring
Mary b 1801 Healey
Dorothy b 1823
Mary b 1826
Agnes 1835
Matthew b 15/4/1841 Middleham

Hopeful that the family were still in Middleham 2 months after birth of Matthew, who is other-half's 3xGgrandfather.

Thanks
SandraC

Hello Sandra C

What evidence do you have for the search to be Middleham.
No Thomas Craggs there, I am curious.

At Ellingstring where Ticker pointed us to -

1841 census 1251/2 page 4a

Thomas Craggs 80 ag lab    Y
Frances     "       55           Y
Mary         "       35           I
The ' e ' in Frances could equally have been an ' i '. I selected ' e '
only because no occupation was given.
The ' I ' is for Ireland.

Malt Wood Cottage
Thomas Craggs 40 ag lab   
Mary         "        38             
Dorothy     "        15               
William       "         9
Ann           "         7
Agnes        "         5
Anthony     "         2
Matthew    "          1 month

All born in County

Ages above 15 are rounded to the nearest lower number divisible by 5.

Hi Oly

Thanks for these - look very promising.

Only caught up on Middleham because of Matthew's birth which was certified at Middleham, Leyburn.

Odd members of the family born around N Yorks / Teeside but always coming back to Newton / Ellingstring / Masham.  Seems they outwitted me again then!

Thanks again
SandraC
