1841/1851 Census lookup - Jeffrey family Twizel(l)
« on: Saturday 31 December 05 04:31 GMT (UK) »
I would appreciate any help in finding Nicholas JEFFREY b.1792, Twizel, who maried Martha RAE b.1804, Twizel, and family in the 1841/51 censuses. I obtained the names of children from familysearch.com (the 1st two births are questionable) as follows:
Margaret b.1815 Durham
Isabella b.1815 Twizel
Alexander b.1821 Twizel
Martha b.1822 Durham
James b.1826 Durham
Elizabeth J. b.1828 Durham
Nicholas b.1828 Twizel
William b.1830 Twizel
Robert b.1833 Twizel

I'm interested especially in place(s) of residence and occupations. Thanking you in anticipation. Regards, Irene

Hello Ozchook

This is a start anyway.... On the 1851:

James JEFFREY, Head, M, 25, Carpenter?, Northumberland Twizel
Rachel, Wife, M, 24, [no oc], Northumberland Norham
Agness, 2, Northumberland Twizel Cartte?
Nilader, 6months, Northumberland Harpenidge?

Sorry it is very hard to read, but place looks like Newharprning? Perhaps someone else could try to read it for us?

Hi Irene and Angelfish

I agree - not one of the better pages to read !

I think the placename is New Harper Ridge about 5 miles South West of Norham.

I read the birthplace of Agnes as Twisel Castle and the name of the 6 month old son as Nicholas.

Regards

As shown on FreeBMD.org.uk,
Marriage Martha Jeffrey and John White, in 1848, Period Dec, District Berwick, Volume 25, Page 18.
