There are 3 Alderson families in Byers Green, but not the one you are looking for, sorry.  Found one Richard, aged 6, father Thomas but none to fit your description

Hi Chairlady
Thanks for looking - the later censuses show them as living in Auckland. I assumed it was Byers Green because later Aldersons were born there. Perhaps it could be another village within the Auckland area. I don't know that area well but it would probably be one of the pit villages. Thanks
Regards Dot

There are an awful lot of pit villages in the area and I have the disks, so there is no index.  Unless you can point to a particular village I won't be able to help further, sorry.

Sorry, nothing on George Gray except his baptism in Tanfield 24 April 1785 and that he was born Whitely Head.  I have stacks of parish record transcripts as well as some microfilm parish records.  I don't mind doing lookups if I have the material at hand and have enough information. 

A little bit of a Nebby nose?  I have never been to Cleveland except the one in Ohio, USA.  I have been to Co. Durham enough to think that seeing Penshaw Monument from the airplane or on the ground as gannin' hyem though.

Hello Janis,thanks for your reply. you do'nt find info out without being nebby, do you ?  so you have nothing on my Nelson's, is that right. If I get to a brick wall, can I ask you to help, if poss. Take care of yourself and I shall keep being nebby in other places. After all it will be information  for my sons and grandchildren. You never said if your tree was on the web, did you see mine.

      best regards peter.
