Post by: grange72 on Tuesday 11 June 13 19:01 BST (UK)
I am unravelling the whereabouts of my gr gr gr grandfather. Born in Osmotherley in 1811 and died in May 1884. Found his grave in Osmotherley but he is not anywhere on the 1881 census.....
Any suggestions?   ???

He was married to Elizabeth but I don't know if he was a coalman. He was a linen weaver in 1841 and 1851, agricultural worker in 1861 and a road labourer in 1871. A man of many talents!!
