Seeking evidence of the following SHEPHERDSON family on the 1851 census (is a serious transcription/spelling error preventing me from finding them?)
LOST:
Christopher Shepherdson, age '35' on 1841 census, born Yorkshire, stone mason;
Mary Shepherdson (nee Sedgwick, 1st marriage was to Spurr), age '40' on 1841 census, born Sheffield;
and the children of this couple, all born Sheffield:
Benjamin Shepherdson bapt. 1826 Sheffield
Emma Shepherdson c. 1827
William Shepherdson c. 1832 - 1874
Christopher Shepherdson c. 1835
Mary Shepherdson bapt. 1838 Sheffield.
Further details: son William Shepherdson (got married 1853 in Manchester to Sarah) is findable in Manchester on the 1861, a stone mason.
In 1841 the family is together in Wath upon Dearne (Swinton), north of Sheffield.
The spellings of the surname are fluid e.g. I've seen Shepardson, Shepheardson, Sheppardson, and William's 1853 marriage is wrongly recorded as Sheffordson.
BUT: What happened to the father & mother Christopher + Mary Shepherdson?
Is the whole family still together somewhere in 1851?
Did the parents go to Manchester along with the children, or did they stay in Sheffield? I can't find any evidence of this couple after 1841.
Thank you for your sharp eyes.
