Thanks Patchem. Ok Francis, her husband is my distant uncle. I am working forward from him. There was a previous thread on this family some time back. I've not added onto there as it was so long ago and I am only looking for her in 1901 and 1911.

Hi there,

My relation Margaret Swales, born c. 1843 in Burnton, Yorkshire, was living with her husband Francis Swales, a tinner/hawker in 1891 in Darlington, County Durham. He died I beleive in 1892 and so I am looking for in the 1901 and 1911 census.

They had a son named Francis 'Frank' Swales born c. 1889 in Coxhoe, County Durham. He may help in the 1901?

Thank you,

Peter
