Thank you Dee and Shirley, Sarah Eleanor getting married in the area rather puts the kaibosh on her as my potential Sarah Lizzie so what on earth does the birth place of Durham, in the 1911, mean???

(second try to get this into thread!)

I wonder if the B is for her true fathers name and she married under her stepfathers name??

I have remembered where the durham came from - the 1901 census. I tried the 1911 with each of the places from the 1901 entries until I got a match but Boldon does not work.
Please could someone give me the 1901 for Sarah E from West Boldon to see if this sheds any light on the girl.
My recollection is that both places had strong coal mining links so the father's job could have moved him to Hemsworth.....

In the advanced search of the 1911 census I have put in Durham as the place of birth for Sarah Lizzie Unwin (I can't remember where I got this nugget from!) and this is accepted as correct. However I can find no entry in FreeBMD for any birth c.1886 in the area of Durham. Has anybody any ideas of a solution please?

Many thanks,
Frances
