Member Since: May 2007 Posts: 23 Send Message	In the 1881 Census Mary Ann Day, aged 14, was living with her Grand Parents William and Ann Gleghorn I think, in Easington, Co. Durham. In the 1871 Census, aged 4, she was living with her Grand Parents William and Ann Heghorn along with their 18 year old daughter Elizabeth, I think, in Monk Wearmouth, Co. Durham. How can I a) find out what is the correct spelling b) who and where are Mary Ann parents Any help would be really appreciated. Thanks
