thank u for all ur help

There's a birth reg in Stockton in 1839, but in theory this is the wrong district :o(( Merry

I can't find the 1841 household in 1851 yet! I found a family headed by a John and Margaret born around the right time in Scotland and England respectively, but though they had a dau, Margaret, she was 19 when she should have been 11. In every other respect they match with the 1841 I posted!! Just in case they made an error with her age, here they are. 1851: Edward Muller abt 1841 Sunderland, Durham, England Son Bishopwearmouth Durham George Muller abt 1847 Sunderland, Durham, England Son Bishopwearmouth Durham James Muller abt 1850 Bishop Wearmouth, Durham, England Son Bishopwearmouth Durham John Muller abt 1807 Scotland Head Bishopwearmouth Durham John Muller abt 1836 Sunderland, Durham, England Son Bishopwearmouth Durham Margaret Muller abt 1810 Sunderland, Durham, England Wife Bishopwearmouth Durham Margaret Muller abt 1832 Sunderland, Durham, England Daughter Bishopwearmouth Durham The 1841 image def has Margaret as aged 1 year. Merry

thank u for ur replys the margaret the one monty found do u fink she is the one im looking for i think my next step is getting margarets birth certificate so i could double check

IGI shows Sedgefield Margaret as being christened in April 1839

here they are in '61 Charles Quin abt 1837 Ireland Head Monkwearmouth Shore Durham Margaret Quin abt 1839 Sunderland, Durham, England Wife Monkwearmouth Shore Durham James Quin abt 1859 Monkwearmouth, Durham, England Son Monkwearmouth Shore Durham John Quin abt 1860 Monkwearmouth, Durham, England Son Monkwearmouth Shore Durham now if a little white lie comes in Margaret may have been born before registrations started

You can't always believe the Censuses. We don't know who gave the info to the enumerator and they may well have made assumptions. The marriage certificate will give her father's name which may well tie in with the Sedgfield census.

Here's a different family! 1841: Mary Andy abt 1838 Durham, England Sunderland Durham Patrick Coonley abt 1811 Scotland Sunderland Durham Mary Cowens abt 1806 Scotland Sunderland Durham Richard Cowens abt 1811 Scotland Sunderland Durham Joseph Dunn abt 1806 Durham, England Sunderland Durham Elegnon Hutchinson abt 1796 Durham, England Sunderland Durham John Mallen abt 1803 Scotland Sunderland Durham John Mallen abt 1837 Durham, England Sunderland Durham Margaret Mallen abt 1811 Durham, England Sunderland Durham >>>>Margaret Mallen abt 1840 Durham, England Sunderland Durham John Mitchel abt 1821 Scotland Sunderland Durham Ellen Steward abt 1838 Durham, England Sunderland Durham Isabella Steward abt 1836 Durham, England Sunderland Durham John Steward abt 1840 Sunderland Durham Margaret Steward abt 1811 Durham, England Sunderland Durham John Mullen (it is a U on the image) is a labourer.
