Title: George Beynon Mellish
Post by: Cumbrian Nige on Monday 02 July 12 15:55 BST (UK)
Hi,
George Beynon Mellish is shown on familyserch as being christened on 23 Nov 1823 at St Luke, Old Street Finsbury with his parents detailed as Thomas and Mary.
Can SKS help/advise on finding either a marriage record for Thomas/Mary or an 1841 census record for this family group?

George Beynon married Mary Ann Ross (GRO ref: Dec 1850 Islington 3 207)

Many thanks

On 1841 census ages of adults 15 + years should be  rounded DOWN to the nearest 5 years
