James Newton (b. 1818) had a sister named Sarah b. 1821 and I she married a William Pearse who is listed in 1851 census as a 'Blacksmith'.  They had two children in that census: a Henry born 1845 and an Emily b. Dec. 1847.  Elisabeth Nolan is also living with them - a sister to James and Sarah. 
I just can't find the family of William/Sarah/Henry and Emily in any further census.
I suspect they may have emigrated as I know that Elisabeth's family moved to Canada.
Any help with finding James' sister Sarah and family - thanks for help.
