Cant find a record for Ann (Annie) Weatherall, she was my mams nana, I know from 1901, 1891 census she was married to Robert Skaife and it says she was born in Witton Le Wear Durham. Would love to know who her parents and siblings were, but cannot find any sign of her before these census records, have looked on Ancestry, and looked for her birth (1867) , but since I dont know the name of her parents, I dont know if I have the right person. Thanks Julie.

Thanks, I knew about the marriage, and could get a copy to find her parents. The main reason I wanted to find an earlier census is to see if she had a sister called Nellie. My mam says she remembers visiting her years ago in Shildon? Durham.

The name on the Middlesbrough site for the marriage is definately Weatherall, not Weatherell. The info on Eleanor is wrong, she never lived in Stockton, and she cant have been born in 1834 as mam visited her in the 1970's when she was in her 70's or 80's. Thanks for trying.
