Is it possible that some very kind person could look up the following person William Swan born c1920 in East/West Rounton. I believe the information is held in Northallerton library as well!!!!!!!!!!!!!! if some is passing the door? His parents are Anthony and Jane.
Many thanks
Rosemary :)

I have looked on 1841 West Rounton but i could not see them
Did you mean 1820 for the birth.
-
Thanks for the reply. Yes I did mean 1820 for William's approx. year of birth. He and his wife Mary, seem to have moved around a lot in later census but still haven't found him for 1841. I think they married about 1846. Their first child was born in Osmotherely and his wife may have come from Brompton.

Where would you like me to look!

Sorry to be so vague!! Any of the surrounding villages starting with Osmotherley Ellerbeck and Brompton perhaps.
Many thanks. The 1851 census shows them moving up in to Durham and living in Winston

Many thanks for checking all those villages. Did you see any Swann's rather than Swan as I have found it spelt both ways, but thought that in the early years it was Swan.
Thanks again
