I have the birth certificate for their son James Gregory - born 30th March 1857. 12 BAck Richmond Pendleton.

But by 1861 the family have moved to Blyth in Northumberland.

omg tom they are well hidden, what is the correct spelling of Elizabeths maiden name? i am thinking they must be mistranscribed, am still looking

ive searched using just alice and marys first names and birth yrs, and gregory on soundex, but nothing matching,,,,

well - nobody knows, none of them could write so on her marriage she is Atelbury, on her sons birth cert it is Attelbury, on her other son's birth cert it is Attelborough, but the name is used as middle names for children later on and it is spelt Atelbury.

Just a note of possibility: there is a part of Pendleton missing from the 1851 census. Suzanne

I know - I have tried searching just Gregory in Northumberland in 1851and there are only 19 ogf them and none of them match mine.

cant find thomas atlbury, elizabeths brother either, is it possible they are in the bit that is missng?? sorry have looked everywhere i can think, good luck on that one Tom census says daughter botn in Lancs, first child born in northumberland in 1859 ..is that wrong?

No Web, just confusing myself even more - they SHOULD be in Lancashire- so probably in the bit that's missing. Is it just missing from ancestry or all together? Anyone know where the missing bit is?

Have you tried searching page by page for the family in the district your expecting them to be in? I ask as I have just been searching for another member here for a family of Cox in Publow Somerset.......... no amount of variants and ways of sourcing them brought forth much .......... so I searched page by page of the parish......... they were recorded under a family calle Hathway....... and although they were recorded as Cox on the original document ......... Ancestry has mistranscribed them and renamed them as part of the Hathway family............. Twits !! Thus no one would have ever found them unless looking at the pages of the original documents :((

How do I do that Deborah?

Click on HOME of ancestry......... click on the census yr you require and then click on county you require and then click on the district you require and start the long old search of finding your rellies :))

Just had a bit of a possible brainwave: Have an old family bible - no dates mind you, but one of the entries says: Mary Gregory Rooke Bildings no3 Booth Street Pendleton Near Manchester, Could this be where she was born? Is it possible to do an address search on the 1851 census?

Sadly not
