Hi would anyone be able to show a bit of light on William Stewart in the 1841 census at all - any help would be appreciated.

Kind Regards,

He can't be in both Gateshead and South Shields..............

Is the '8' his age?

Sorry it's South Shields! My programme came up with both - yes he would have been 8 in 1841.

Many Thanks
