1881 census Monaghan/Moore

[tikki_nik2]

I have a Teresa Monaghan b. March 1857, Gateshead, Durham, daughter of Francis and Sarah.

She was married in April 1885 to James George Moore. At this time she was living in Hawes Street (possibly no.54) and James was living at no.12 Hawes Street, Newcastle. On her wedding certificate it says 'Theresa Moneghan described in certificate as Theresa Monagan'.

Teresa is in the following census':

1851 - Hillgate, Gateshead, Durham - Ref 2402,511,9,10
1861 - South Shields, Durham - Ref 3794, 43, 32
1871 - Herbert Street, Elswick, Northumberland - Ref 5079, 35, 10

In 1881 her family are living at 24 Stanley Street, Elswick, Northumberland but Teresa isn't here. I think she worked abroad for a time and maybe this was over the 1881 census but I would be greatful if someone else could double check for me and see if they can find either Teresa or James in the 1881 census.

Many thanks

Have you made a mistake with birth year or 1861 census?

Might make a difference in finding her!

No, it is definately Theresa's family in the 1851 census, although she was not born till 1857. I have searched and can not find her so I think it all points to her being abroad at this time. With regards to James George Moore whom she later married, he was born in Portrush, Balleymoney, Antrim, according to 'family ledgend'. He originally moved to Leeds where he joined the army and was a soldier for a time.
