P,

So Ralph born in Northumberland and Isabella born in Durham.
In which county were the children born ?

Hi Michael,

The IGI has what appears to be the children's christenings at Christ Church Tynemouth Northumberland:
Margaret 8 Jul 1818
Isabella 16 Jan 1820
William 28 Oct 1821
Eleanor 15 Feb 1824

And this may be the parent's marriage also at Chirst Church:
Ralph English = Isabella Walker
28 Sept 1817

and perhaps Ralph's christening:
Ralph English
21 Oct 1792
Wallsend
Northumberland

(all extracted IGI records)

[Ruskie]

And there is this marriage:
William English = Margaret Habbuck
23 Jun 1788
Wallsend
Northumberland

and putting two and two together here:
William English
b 1 Apr 1763
chr 10 Apr 1763
Wallsend
father William
(all will need checking to see that my 2+2 doesn't equal 5  )

Apologies if you already have this information.

I realise that this has not answered your request for an 1841 census lookup, but I got a bit carried away I'm afraid.

There are some decent online records for Durham/Northumberland, so let me know if you'd like links to any of them.

Hi there! Thanks both for your replies!

I do have the info from the igi but any links would be great thank you very much

Hi Penninah,

Here are some sites to explore:

* http://www.rootschat.com/links/02to/
LDS free site - scroll down to "vital records" for Durham Bishop's Transcripts. You can search by place (Wallsend is there  ) - not all dates covered. You have to trawl through images of original documents - unindexed and cumbersome to use, but well worth it.

have not used but looks interesting

Northumberland map

http://www.durham.gov.uk/recordoffice/dro.nsf/vwebplaces
Durham County Record Office

http://communities.northumberland.gov.uk/
Northumberland communities

* http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/
Genuki - Geroge Bell has indexed many marriages in parishes in Durham and some in Northumberland. Well worth checking. Select "Durham", then "Durham towns and parishes", then select "church records". This is where the indexes are hidden.

You need to register and there is a fee involved. New records are regularly being added.

http://www.joinermarriageindex.co.uk/
Another pay site.

Sites with a "*" are those I use a lot, the others I don't have much/any knowledge of but you may find them useful.
Good luck.
