Johnstone 1881 Census lookup

[Trailrunner]

Hello

Was wondering if some kind person would look up the following family for me on the 1881 census, i am interested in the mother Elizabeth Ann THOMSON ( nee JOHNSTON) and believe that she comes from England. On her marriage entry in 1872 at castleton it states birth place England but gives no town. I am hoping the 1881 census will give more detail.

She was married to a Thomas John THOMSON born Langholm about 1853. There was a daughter Mary Ann THOMSON born 1872 Hawick.

Any help would be very appreciated.

Thanks very helpfull for children details, but unfortunitaly still only list mothers place of birth as England. Maybe the 1891 will give her home town.

Many thanks for your kind help

Think i has sused it, on the 1891 census you provided it stated her mother Mary A Johnstone aged 67 Brn england. Did a check and found Mary A SINTON born Dalston in 1824. Matches so far. Checked births on free BMD and in the carlise district wich covrs Dalston found a Elizabeth ANN JOHNSTON born 1852. So think i am on to something, thanks for help.
