Sarah Beaty married Walter Little in 1853 in Alston,Cumberland. Until recently I had lost complete trace of them after marriage. I found the death of Walter in Alston in 1855. I then located the marriage of a Sarah Little to William Colquhound in 1858 Alston . On freebmd there is a Robert Colquhound born 1859 Alston. My problem is I can't locate any of them on any census, they have vanished again! Helppp George

I can't see anything on ancestry that looks like it's either of the Roberts or Sarah with her married name of Colquhound. 1871 for Cumberland doesn't seem to be on there yet so we may get lucky when it's included Zoe
