Please do not post details of living people.  I have edited your post to remove a name and address.  It is too easy for unscrupulous people to use such information for identity theft.

I hope by me posting this you aren't missing the previous post, Dave.

The reference re vol and page is of no relevance to me at the moment as i dont subscribe to any paying history sites

The reference I gave you is free to search on the link below.

When you said you can't find what happened to Mainner, did you find her birth record which I'm assuming was registered in Guisborough. I can't even find that, but there's a Marion and a Martha.

I found the below on the 1881 census but other than that nothing. maybe she died early on, or even emigrated, the story seems to end abruptly.

Blackburn

Mainner

1877

Redcar

But there's also a Maryana Blackburn, born Hartlepool which claims she born in the workhouse on the 1881, Dave.

Here's the two Guisborough births I wondered about, both available from TeesValley Indexes :

The reason I say this, if you click on the given reference number where it says Guisborough, you can contact Tees Valley Registration Services free of charge to verify any queries - before they issue the certificate.

Please note: We are unable to give information from an entry other than in the issue of a certificate. You are welcome to supply us with further details for verification and we will advise you as to whether or not this is the correct certificate before you purchase.

You could ask them whether the father's name was recorded as Christopher.
If it isn't, you know these births aren't the ones you are searching for.

Hope this makes sense.

HI, I am positive its MAINNER Blackburn.  Re find my past site.

In the 1881 census, she is listed as the daughter of Christopher and Mary Blackburn & sister of Nathaniel 8 years. She is 4 years old. and was born in Bedale.

The address at the census is Villiage North Side Hurworth.

Hi again,

According to the actual image from the 1881 - she was definitely born in Redcar.
I'll try and post a snippet of the image.

I think you must have misread it !
