Hello again. Here are more Cheshire strays that were in the 1861 census for various parts of Co Durham. The reason that they were not submitted with the first lot is because these were down under "Cheshire" and the first lot were under the County code for Cheshire ie "CHS."
SEYMORE, PLATT, COX, GIBSON, HOBSON, JONES, KNOWLES, LAMB, MORRISON, OLIVER, PICKERING, ALLAN, BOUSEFIELD, BUSTOCK.

Hi,

Do you have on your list of strays a George T. Whitby.  According to 1881 census he was visiting my Whitby ancestors in Ellesmere Port, he is down as a Bricklayer from Saltney.  I would be grateful for any help in finding George T. as he is not mentioned on any census before or after 1881.

Regards,
Jill.

Hello Jill. Sorry I have not got him. The only strays that I have are the ones that who were born  in Cheshire and then moved to Co Durham.
