I think the last one for 1881 census is the wrong family.

Will ring my S I L when she gets home from work about 7pm.

Thanks for all the info.

Is this the same one that was on here earlier today as I had no luck with 1891

Is father John still a railwayworker or gas stoker but he was born 1850/1 earlier?

How do you know where she was born. A place of marriage is not really the same as place of birth

Would SKS look for Elizabeth Alice Wilson born 1881 in Durham/Hartlepool.
Her father was John Wilson c1855 around Durham/Hartlepool.

I have Elizabeth's Marriage(23yrs old) cert from 1904 married Robert Beevor(26 yrs old) in West Hartlepool.

Her father John was deceased in 1904 on the marriage cert.

Thanks in Advance
Sue
