Think there is an issue with the way Neesham is spelt - on findmypast 1841 Thomas is down as Newsham and obviously we have Hannah as Nesham!!

Hope this helps.

I'll give you some background info to start with

Thomas Neesham & Margaret Winder married in 1820
They had at least two surviving children:
Hannah Lee Neesham born 1820c in Liverpool
& Thomas Neesham born 1822c also in Liverpool (and possibly a John Wintergill Neesham born 1825c, but I can't find anything about him at the moment)

Thomas sr died sometime before 1830 & Margaret remarried to Walter McAdam in 1830.

I have Thomas jr living with his Mum & Step-dad in 1841, but I can't find Hannah.
I think Hannah married George Lackham in 1852 & Thomas possibly married Ann McKenzie in 1855.
There the line goes a bit dead on the Neesham side, apart from a possible death for Hannah in 1868

So can anybody please help me find Hannah in 1841-1861
& Thomas from 1851 please?
