Hi there,

My relation Christiana Morrison was born c. 1865 in Stokesley, Yorkshire and married in 1883 to William Morrison in Loftus, Yorkshire. I am looking for her and her family in 1891/1901 and 1911. Can someone help?

When Christiana and William married they were described as hawkers.

Best wishes,

Peter

Thank you again for this extra help ... just got their marriage certificate today.

William Morrison was born c. 1860 son of Joseph Morrison a labourer.

Can someone now spot William with his family in 1861/1871?

Thank you!

Struggling.............but will take another look!! :-|

I am posting this one............just in case!!

And it's all i can come up with!!

Edit: I dont think this is the right Joseph because this Joseph does not appear to have a son William in the 1881 or 1871.

How odd! There is obviously a connection between Morrison and Stephenson from 1881. But, no sign of William Morrison before his marriage?!

Also, been lookng into above 1891 ... Joseph Morrison is a relation of mine. And I also bought his marriage cert today. HOwever, I have looked into Levi Burnside (Another family name). Here he is in 1881:

Can this family be spotted in the rest of the census? I am looking for the father of the head of the household initally (name not known).

ALSO, RE Joseph Morrison born c. 1840 in Guisborough (shown in 1891). He married Mary Palmer on August 5th, 1860 in Guisborough, aged 21 and a labourer, the son of Joseph Morrison a Pot Man.

Can someone spot him with his father in the 1851?

Thank you,

Peter

Maybe someone could look this guy up in 1871 - I think he may be John or Susannah's dad:

Ancestry has John in the next h/h - I think he's next but one.
As I've rellies from fishing ports, I've often seen the fishers wife call herself "Wife" (of hubby at sea) on a census, instead of "Head".
Ancestry gets confused, and rolls her mob into the previous h/h, which is what I think happened with the Lintons.
