So Joseph at least lived to a ripe old age! I'm going to log off for a while but I'll be back later!

Hi Moody Blue!

I wonder if this is the family, whether the children I found on the IGI (Joseph and Elizabeth born 1824 and 1827 respectivley) died in infancy?!

Thanks Minnie; I'll see if anyone can spot her in the census, and if not I'll contact the register office! Thanks for your help!

There is one dies in 1857 might or might not be her

Thanks Minnie - I'll investigate. Elizabeth is a sibling of an ancestor of mine, so I'm not directly looking into the extended Jewitt family, but if this is an easy task I may do so! As you say, it is an unusual name!

Hello there,

Could someone please look-up my relation Elizabeth Jewitt in the census for 1841, 1851 and beyond, as I would like to see what family she had and when she died (assuming she lived uptil 1841).

She was born in the Spring of 1799 in Slaley, Northumberland, and married Joseph Jewitt in Slaley, Northumberland in May 1818. She and Joseph had at least two children:

Joseph, born 1824 in Chollerton, Northumberland
Elizabeth, born 1827 in Chollerton, Northumberland

This is the last time I know of Elizabeth senior being alive, and I'd like to find out more.

Thank you,

Peter
