Title: Cumberland Census look up Please
Post by: La Manga on Thursday 08 February 07 21:29 GMT (UK)
I have a George Edgar b 1838 in Wigton Cumberland to parents William and Mary

In the 1881 census there are 2 Williams with Mary as wife
1) William 62
     Mary 58
     John 19
     William  15
All born Alston   Living in Durham

Best possibilty is living at Rickergate Cumberland
William 70 Howdon Yorks
Mary Ann 65 Wigton Cumberland

Can any one check these on ealier census to see if they had George and any other children.

Also can any one find George I have him married to Elizabeth with 2 girls Elizabeth Maria and Mary

Thanks
Jac
