LEGG families
« on: Saturday 07 May 05 20:35 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I am trying to locate the LEGG family in the 1841 census.

Hoping you can locate them in the Brunswick Place area of North Shields (may also say Chirton).  Brunswick Place was given in the 1851 index of Chirton, North Shields.

in 1841: Agnes, (would be) 25
Elizabeth, 0
Peter, 34
Thomas, 6

Thanks in anticipation.

(All the LEGG names in Northumberland and Durham connect in some way.  I'm almost there in Northumberland, need a little work on the Durham side, although the LEGG's on the banks of the Tyne seem to connect, Gateshead, South SHields etc.  So....ANY LEGG's would be appreciated.)

hi Barbara,

Thank you very much.  This family is indeed mine.  Thomas and Sarah LEGG were my 4 X Great Grandparents.  It's interesting to know which of the children were still living at home with them at the time.

Thanks again.
