Shepherd Family
I am trying to find this family .
Lucy Ware married Mark Shepherd in Manchester in 1850. They are on 1851 census at Birch Villa Lane Chorlton with George 8 months and 3 lodgers.
In 1861 I can only find Mark age 36
By 1871 still living in Manchester and they have 3 children George 20, Elizabeth 17 and Harriett 14 all born Manchester.
Lucy born Isle of Man between 1812 to 1822.
Mark born Brockley Worcs. about 1827.
Thanks Sue.

Not sure why you cannot find them in 1861 as they are all together in Manchester and you already have Mark

Mark Sheppard   34
Lucy Sheppard   45
George Sheppard   10
John Sheppard   9
Elizabeth Sheppard   8
Harriott Sheppard   4
Edward Partington   34
Edward Fletcher   34
Frances White   65

Class: RG 9; Piece: 2963; Folio: 75; Page: 8
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.

Possibly Sue has found a different Mark because her one is 36 and ours is 34!
