Hi All,

Could someone please lookup in the 1841 census:

Ann Ellwood née Simpson b c1770 widow

Her husband William died just before the census on 2/4/1841 Bongate (Appleby) Westmorland. Ann registered the death. His burial record states he was living Gale Houses Bongate. There are no deaths for an Ann Ellwood until 1842 according to freebmd.

I have found her children in 1841 except Margaret b1809 Bongate (Appleby) & Mary b1813 Bongate. Mary did not marry John Dufton.

I have found the following entry:

ELLWOOD, Ann F 70 1771 Westmorland VIEW
BINKS, Sarah F 75 1766 Westmorland VIEW

Piece: 1157
Book/Folio: 2/5
Page: 5
Registration District: 5
Civil Parish: Kirkby Stephen
Municipal Borough:
Address: Rookby, Kirkby Stephen, Kaber
County: Westmorland

but this is another Ann née Waistell who married John Ellwood.

Any help much appreciated. I have been looking for Ann for a while. I don't even know where she was born or who her parents where!

Hi Vera,

Thanks but cannot be her. Too young as she married William in 1794 St Michael's Bongate Appleby. Her first child was born 1797 Bongate.

Hi Catherine,

Thanks, I have seen this one before & is not my Ann. This Ann was née Waistell and was married to John Ellwood.

I keep being drawn back to Vera's 1841 census find with Matthew & Mary Robinson.

I know the age for Ann doesn't look quite right but we all know that the ages in the 1841 census could be very out!

It's just there is this marriage

Marriages Jun 1841
ELLWOOD Mary Wt Ward 25 531
ROBINSON Matthew Wt Ward 25 531

Could this be daughter Mary?

Hi Londonbelle,

Yes I see what you mean.

In familysearch

17 Apr 1841 Bolton, Westmorland, England

Pity it doesn't give the fathers' names.

I will have to look into this family a bit more.

Thanks,

Gillian
