The 1901 posted earlier has Jane Smith as mother-in-law. So the Joseph Smith I found in 1871 was not the right one. Or are we looking at 2 different Joseph Smiths! Back to the search again! (switching off for a while - very black clouds coming this way, with thunder etc) |

Have just realised (by checking the 1861/1871 census) that Thomas b c1829 was born in Northumberland. There are 21 possibilities in Northumberland - and together with the 30+ possibilities in Durham it is somewhat of an impossible task for me at the moment! Maybe someone else will feel strong enough to do the search for you - sorry I cannot help. |

His father is a Thomas as well and is a pitman. Gail |

Looking at the 1861 and 1871 census that have been found it would appear that Thomas was born c 1829. Searching the 1841 census for Thomas Smith b 1829 +/- 2 years in Durham - gives 30 possibilities. Without his father´s name it is impossible to find the right one! |

You say that Thomas Smith married Mary Davison in 1851 - do you have their marriage certificate. You will really need Thomas´s father´s name and occupation if you have any chance of finding them successfully on the 1841. |

Here is an 1871 census showing a Dorothy Broadley with family - have checked image and name is definitely Broadley Barbara Bradley abt 1855 Cachoe, Durham, England Daughter Auckland St Andrew Durham Dorothy Bradley abt 1861 Coundon, Durham, England Daughter Auckland St Andrew Durham Jane Bradley abt 1850 New Durham, Durham, England Daughter Auckland St Andrew Durham John Bradley abt 1867 Southchurch, Durham, England Son Auckland St Andrew Durham Mary A Bradley abt 1826 Tynemouth, Northumberland, England Wife Auckland St Andrew Durham Richard Bradley abt 1827 Clapon, Lancashire, England Head Auckland St Andrew Durham Richard Bradley abt 1864 Coundon, Durham, England Son Auckland St Andrew Durham William Bradley abt 1852 Middlesborough, Yorkshire, England Son Auckland St Andrew Durham Richard´s occupation - coalminer Dorothy´s birth here shown as c1861 Coundon, Durham - which matches the birth year and place on the 1901 Does Dorothy´s marriage certificate show her father to be Richard ? |

Hi Elaine, Yes she was born in Coundon. And I have about her and her father who is Richard Rushton. It is the smith lot that are proving troublesome. Thanks Gail |

Do you have Dorothy and Joseph´s marriage certificate - if so what was Dorothy´s father´s name and occupation ? (Am trying to match the Dorothy I found in the 1901 census with a Dorothy Broadley b 1861 Coundon in the 1871 census) |
