Assumed as he was born and died in Little Stainton he was there in 1851.

On Ancestry I just entered 'Tho*' and residence 'Little Stainton' and there were only 2 results....Bingo :-D

Can't find him anywhere Marian ...

Hello both, I'm afraid that isn't Thomas in 1851 Marie. That is him in 1861 Fred. Thank you both. I wonder why he isn't showing in 1851.

Hello, would someone please take a look at the above census for Thomas, born 1774 at Little Stainton, Co Durham and who died 1867 aged 93 years at Little Stainton. On the 1861 census index the reg district is Stockton. Can't seem to find him on the 1851 index. Thank you.
