Easington in County Durham?? Have you tried durhamrecordsonline??

Hi Carol There are alot of places called Easington do you know which one you want? A county might help. Cheers Gina

have you checked the beta records on Ancestry? http://www.ancestry(.)co.uk/search/db.aspx?dbid=8965 Omit brackets, as always......... Reg

PM from Carol Tried durhamrecordsonline but no joy. At least that answers the question of which Easington we're looking at.

Is this the 1861 family you're referring to?? rg9/3746/75/9 Living Salters Lane, Haswell, C. Durham Ellen Lovet abt 1824 Sunderland, Durham, England Wife Haswell Durham Mary N Lovet abt 1860 Haswell, Durham, England Daughter Haswell Durham Thomas Lovet abt 1818 Newcastle Upon Tyne Head Haswell Durham Thomas Lovet abt 1857 Haswell, Durham, England Son John Liddli abt 1855 Seaton, Durham, England Nephew Haswell Durham

There is a marriage for ELEANOR LIDDLE AMJ 1856 Durham 10a 345. Just going to check the other side of it. UPDATE - Drat - she married Thomas SPOONER Young Thomas' birth was OND 1856 Easington 10a 236 No other Ellen/Eleanor Liddle marriage 1856 or 1855 in right area on ancestry beta images

how do you get partener it sounds a good match by the date, does it say where marriage took place carol

hi you said ellen was born 1824 and thomas 1818 on 1861 cencus ,i have them as ellen 1834 and thomas 1828 on 1861 do you think these are the same people , bit of a muddle carol

Carol - those details I gave were for 1861 - are you saying that you have them precisely 10 years younger elsewhere on the 1861? If so, please post the details. Where did I get the husband's name from for the Eleanor Liddle marriage - durhamrecordsonline !!!!! Unless you have some other reason to think that Thomas Lovett has suddenly become (or was) Thomas Spooner, then it's absolutely no match at all.

hi i have had details sent to me from someone .details say 1861 cencus thomas lovett 43(33) ellen 37(27) 1871 cencus says thomas 46 and ellen 39 then 1881 cencus thomas 46(56) and ellen 49 all different dont know what to go for ,i do need help badly (ha) carol

you think ancestry .coms records would be right in 1861saying he was born 1818 he says he was born newcastle all other cencus after that he says born Felling very confusing Carol

Carol - literacy and numeracy wasn't everyone's strong point. Some people genuinely didn't know exactly when they were born (or where).Thomas isn't particularly good at knowing his age. Ellen (or Helen or Eleanor) can't decide what her christian name is or how old she is. Also the enumerator wrote down what he was told. There's nothing wrong with a pob as Newcastle and a pob of Felling - they're close enough to each other. If family members across the various census are the same but ages are out (especially by exactly 10 years) I wouldn't worry. Genealogy isn't a precise science !!!!

nudged to keep up with identical thread ( it is isn't it?)

Carol - as it would seem that someone posting as Maria Mawson has just started a thread requesting identical information, may I suggest that you contact her - she is obviously a VERY HOT MATCH

mystery solved with same thread ,sister doing same tree and tried messages out but used same details as me .problem solved (ha ). Carol

very ha ha,... if people have spent time looking for things for you, and her , when the two of you are doing the same tree ( and know it) its not ha ha at all really! we have choices, we can choose to look things up or not for people. jess x

well not a very good reply , my sister is new to this and everybody makes mistakes ,and am sorry for any trouble its caused you ,or any one else. ive always been very grateful for what help i get from people and did nt warrent a reply like that . Carol
