Hi Julie
Sorry for the late reply. Thank you very much for your help last night.
Do you have 1881, 1891 & 1901 census? If you do and you have the time could I ask another favour and ask you to look at this family on those also please?
Kindest regards Lisa

I can't see them in the 1891

There is a John born right year & area with a Margaret, but have found them in the 1881 so can rule him out

Hi Julie
I know and thank you again for you help. I am now trying to find out when they married do you just have census or do you have bmd also? I am trying to find Sophia's maiden name I know she has her widowed Mum living with her 1891 so Sophia's maiden name should be Tregilles but I cant find any proof. I wasnt able to find the Tregilles family on the 1861 census either? I dont suppose you would be able to look them up for me please if you have a spare mo?
Joseph Treggiles b1821 Durham
Susan Tregilles b1820 St Giles? Devon?
Sarah Ellen Tregilles b1861 Exeter
I found a marriage between john Conner and Mary Sophia Atkins in 1860 stangley enough Susan the mother's maiden name was Atkins?
What do you think?
Many thanks for any help given
Kind regrds Lisa

Wow Claire and Julie thank you so much.
It looks as though Susan's marriage to Joseph Tregillis was her second marriage doesnt it and that is why there is such an age gap with Sarah Ellen
