Hi Potty,

Thank you, it's not the family I'm looking for after all so can rule that one out.

She's been really hard to find, think I'll try though one of her daughter's.
There's a Sarah Thackray born 1827 living in Batley, Yorkshire would you mind having a look at her please?

Thank you

Wendy

Hi All

Could someone please look at the 1841 census for Mary Thackray born abt 1801 and William Tacknery born abt 1800 living in Knaresborough district, name might be down as Thackwray.

Thank you

Hi Gins,

Think I've cracked it, although there's no parents on the christening of Mary Ann Walker 1802 on the online records I've found a marriage of William Walker & Elizabeth Willstrop 25 May 1801 at Cowthrope and that Elizabeth Willstrop was also christened at Cowsthorpe on 3 Oct 1779 daughter of John Willstrop and Ann Horner. ties in with her age on the 1851 census although she put down as Knaresborough as place of birth on census. Cowsthorpe is 7 miles form Knaresborough.
