I have from the LDS at household record which says Thomas Harrison b1837 he married Jane Bullerwell b1837 both from Tanfield Then on Durham Records online it says 1871 census Thomas Harrison b1809 to Jane b1813 again both from Tanfield but they have their stepson living with them called Thomas Bullerwell, so Janes name must be Bullerwell. Why are the dates so different? can anyone help me before I end up in my grave! Much appreciated Regards Yvonne

On the LDS site does it say it is taken from Parish Records or has been submitted by a member? A good amount of the info comes from people like us doing our trees and making mistakes Im afraid. If the BMD you looked at is taken from the parish registers that is going to be correct.

Hi Heather No i didnt see it saying as submitted by a member, its got all the source information on it, cos I printed it out. and on my others it tells where they lived. The ones I have printed off a while back have all been correct, saying that anyone can make a mistake really. Regards Yvonne
