Well done Jap.

I knew there was more to this than met the eye.

Never THAT happy with both Elizabeth's being the same girl.

I wonder if we'll EVER get to the bottom of the Jude surname?
Maybe as someone suggested,an error by a registrar,after a long day.

Hope yours at work isn't Paul

Congratulations to everyone on this thread!

There were some mind-blowing discoveries.

I just sat back, commented, didn't do any worthwhile lookups, and then leapt in at the end!

When I read the thread again this morning (my time) three things jumped out at me:
a) CatOne's incredible find of the family (with Uncle Elihu PEARSON) under ELICSANDER in 1881
b) CatOne's post of Uncle Elihu in 1871 showing his birthplace as Keswick (that Keswick birthplace for Elizabeth in 1861, 1871 and 1891 had niggled at me - as I once mentioned)
But I feel that I still wouldn't have twigged without:
c) Gallium's mention of the 1858 marriage of a William ALEXANDER & an Elizabeth PEARSON - that was what made the light go on!

However, I'm now wondering whether we do have the correct family for Elizabeth PEARSON ...

Elizabeth PEARSON bap 1830, parents Thomas PEARSON & Mary (probably LANCASTER), Crosthwaite probably is the right one - and date is perfect for 1871 and 1891 censuses, and 1893 death.

But ...
There is another possible Elizabeth PEARSON just a couple of years earlier - Elizabeth PEARSON bap 1829, parents Joseph PEARSON & Anne, Crosthwaite.
Same parents had (also Crosthwaite) John bap 1827 and Joseph bap 1831.
Those parents might well be Joseph PEARSON and Ann VICKERS, marriage, 3 Aug 1826, Crosthwaite.

Well done again everyone! I'm waiting with much hope now that we will have some answers soon from more certificates.
I, at the moment, (although as has been demonstrated by all this hard work we have to have an open mind) favour the Judah brother connection simply because he too arrived in Liverpool. I know when you look at census data - lots of people did migrate from Cumberland so again could be just coincidence and Uncle Elihu could be uncle to both Elizabeths. It's a pity he isn't in IGI other than his marriage.
cheers everybody,

we must be mad- I thought 'I'll just have another look - just in case'  and 1841 saw Elizabeth Ida in the indexes. Mmmm- Ida/ Jude - possibility - checked on her - mother and children are shown as /do- transcribed as 'Ida'. There you are

More details?

Just when I thought we'd reached a conclusion of sorts...!!!

Had a look at the 1841 Census, and from what I can read, it looks like their surname is 'Benn' ??

This is the family:

High street     Thomas Benn           49    Master Mariner ?
                       Agnes / do       48
                       Catherine do   15               ?
                       Elizabeth  do   13
                       James  ?   do   11

On IGI...


Thomas Benn

Birth:  10 MAR 1791   
Christening:  12 MAR 1791   Egremont, Cumberland, England

Marriage: There are three....none to an Agnes though. Thomas Benn and....

ANN SITTLINTON Marriage:  15 NOV 1814   Drigg, Cumberland, England
SARAH NETTY      Marriage:  27 MAR 1815   Crosscanonby, Cumberland, England
MARY FISHER      Marriage:  18 MAY 1824   Saint James, Whitehaven, Cumberland, England


Not too sure about this lot.
