I have a family which has proved very hard to find , as the surname varies in BMD as Triffitt, Triffith, Trufoot, Trewhitt and variants thereof.
James Triffith married Mary Ann Stout (b. 1806), in1825 Houghton le Spring and had issue:
Jane Treffet b.1826 Colliery Row, Dur married Thomas Barrass.
John Wylam Triffit b. 1828 Middle Rainton DIED 1831
George Triffit b. 1831 Middle Rainton DIED 1833 as George Trewhitt
Elizabeth Trewhitt b.1835 Middle Rainton marries Thos Swaddle
James Triffit/Trewhitt
b.1837 Middle Rainton, died sept q 1841 so should be on 1841 census.Of "Wingate Grange" in 1841according to burial index on" Durham Records Online "
James senior died 1838.
So, in 1841, living at Wingate Dur, I have found the following family, indexed as Tubbett, all born in Co Durham, which is correct.
Mary Tubbett 34
Jane " 15
John. ". 13
George. ". 10
Elizabeth" 6

I would be interested to hear what you think. There do not seem to be any other people with the surname Tubbett in Durham before or after this. I can see that Triffitt could perhaps be mistranscribed into the enumeration books. I do not think Mary Ann was very literate, as at her 1825 wedding she made her mark. It seems a bit of a coincidence that these people are in Wingate and the ages are exactly right.
