Title: Sarah Fee
Post by: Outlaws on Wednesday 30 September 20 13:35 BST (UK)

I am trying to find out why Sarah Fee, born in Whitehaven in 1845 parents John & Margaret Fee (nee Floody). I find her on the 1851 census living at home, next time I find her she is in the Tynemouth Workhouse with 2 children Elizabeth aged 3 & John aged 2. I have Elizabeth’s birth certificate showing no Fathers  name   I have checked the workhouse records and she entered with a baby. I was hoping someone has any further details regarding Sarah. Thanks

Just to add to info posted

“The next time I find her” refers to the 1871 census and the 2 children mentioned were both born in Northumberland

Is she on the 1861 census?

I dont know what "why" you seek. You seem to have omitted that part
