Hi Amy
I just saw your posting about the 1881 census.
It's not on this site because they know that you can get all the info free from "family search.org" it's a site set up by the Church of the Latter Day Saints - the Mormon Church that has recorded millions of births, marriages and all of the 1881 census for England and Wales.
Let me know if you find it.

The birth certificates of the children are your best bet to obtain 100% accuracy for Mary's maiden name.

Possible matches for births:

Births Mar 1878 (>99%)
Newton Herbert Ecclesall B. 9c 324

Births Jun 1880 (>99%)
NEWTON Julia Ecclesall B. 9c 347

Births Mar 1888 (>99%)
NEWTON Florence Ecclesall B 9c 34

I am trying to find information about Mary Newton I dont know her maiden name but she married Samuel Newton. Samuel was born in 1851 Mary was born 1857 I am not sure when they married but they had 5 children, Herbert born 1872, Julia born 1881, Mary Helen born 1884, Florence born 1888 and Samuel born 1889. We know that Julia was Born in sheffield but we are not sure of the rest of them. If anyone has any information I will be very greatful, Someone knid enough to help me managed to help me discover 3 generations of the same family after 1900 any information at all is of significant and great help. Thanks
