ps Sarah is listed as Daughter but I suspect she is a Grand Daughter of Catherine and that James is Catherine’s Father.

Thank you very much DS
Just wonder was James (grandfather) name Kerfoot ?
Perhaps he was her old father in law?

Hi

In case you did not already know, the sons appear on the IGI in Batches C005394 Isaac and C005495 Matthew, Leigh, Levi and Thomas.

On the 1851 census James is listed (by ditto) as Kerfoot.

Hi

Just to confirm that Sarah is Isaac's daughter. She appears with him and the rest of his family in 1861 and 1871. They are not very easy to find since they are listed as Careforth in 1861 and Herfort in 1871.

If you would like the full details of the entries let me know and I will do them for you later.

They are also on the 1881 census (listed as Kerfoot) which you can see free of charge on http://www.familysearch.org/. Isaac is married to Emma.
