This might be impossible but...I need information from the 1841 census for Berwick or Tweedmouth. I am trying to find my gg grandfather and his parents (whose names I am unsure of). In 1851 they were living in Tweedmouth but I am told that in 1841 these areas came under Co. Durham? Details are:
George White aged about 13 or 14 (in 1841) born in Leith, Scotland.
I think his parents were named George and Alice (or Alison or Ellis). And he may have had a sister named Mary (aged about 11) and another named Elizabeth (aged about 15).
I am sorry I don't have more info. But I hope someone can help me!

Hope I'm doing this right! I'm new here...
From the 1851 census:
address West End, Tweedmouth, Berwick on Tweed.
Alice White, head, widow, 62, Retail grocer, born Berwick on Tweed.
George White, son, u, 23, Iron moulder, born Scotland.
Mary Hannah, daur, m, 21, born Berwick on Tweed.
John Hannah, son in law, 22, Iron moulder, born Tweedmouth.
That's it. Thanks for your help - and I hope you can find them in the 1841!
