Yeah I have looked to no avail Gins....


Mary...had sort of got there as well....I suspect a load of inter-familial goings on.

And who said it was only the Welsh that inbred ha ha :-) !!

Sorry I have not been able to reply to you sooner but I have been trying to find out information from messages sent to me, here is a start.
Leah Dent baptism,Auckland dis,Location,Hamsterly,Church St James,
23May 1824 Leah Dent of StoneChester,daughter of John(farmer)and
Isabella Dent this matches one previous message.StoneChester is the name of two farms in Co Durham,High StoneChester and Low StoneChester
both farms are still there and on the internet with photos of Low StoneChester where I think Leah Dent lived because it is very close to
Hamsterly I have looked for John Dent on internet and all that I can find are lead miners from Stanhope area with no Isabella on cenus.
Michael Winn Grandson living with Leah Palmer 1861 was born latter part of 1860 at Merrington Grange Co Durham.I have not been able to Leah Dent on 1841 cenus but there is a Leah Palmer living in Woolwich London not born in area a wild shot Michael Wynn 1881 cenus widow living in Ovington Yorkshire.
George Coussins married Mary Dent 14 May 1831 Stainton in Cleveland York Mary Dent born Romaldkirk Yorkshire there are two many Mary Dents born in Romaldkirk to make connection of parents.
George Coussins blacksmith went on to be a farmer.
Thank you George

George - you still need to buy her marriage certificate to Michael Wynn. When you have that you will be able to confirm or otherwise that her father was John. Until then I feel we are all surmising and going round in circles
