Hi all

I'm looking for a Mark Lord in the 1861 census who was born around 1851. The strange thing is, I can't find a birth for him even though he is in the 1851 census with parents James Lord and Ann (Bateman) in the Halifax area.

He may have half siblings with him:

George born 1848
Ellen 1846
Sarah 1848

Thanks in advance for this.

I am not completely convinced with all the relationships on the 1851. At the time Mark was only 9 days old & probably hadn't been christened & it could be they changed their mind about his name-

I found that strange 1861 household as well Claire but couldn't work it out. I wondered, as there was some mistakes in the relationships, if there was a mistake in the Names as well. Like the enumerator skipped a couple of names.

Ozi.

Wow, thanks again Claire and June and also Ozibird, That is fab! The mystery of Mark Lord has been solved. He must have been named Isaac in the end!!

Thanks so much!

You'd need to get his birth cert to be sure.
