Seeking any parent/sibling details for George Brighton, born Tibenham 1855, mother possibly Everett or Burrows.
Appears in 1871 Census as a farm servant in Tibenham, then later in the West Riding of Yorkshire, finally died in Spen Valley in 1939.
Any assistance greatly appreciated.

there's a baptism in Dickleburgh 18 Nov 1855 for George Brighton son of Samuel, labourer, & Sarah. He would appear to be the one registered dec qtr 1855 mmn Burrows.
This child was buried in Dickleburgh 16 Aug 1856 aged 9 months
Marriage in Dickleburgh 19 Jun 1854 for Samuel Brighton & Sarah Barroughs.
So for the other George's parents, possible marriage 18 Aug 1844 in Tibenham
Robert Brighton full age bach tailor Hoxne in Suffolk father Michael Brighton, thatcher
Mary Ann Everett spinster Tibenham father William Everett, weaver
witnesses Joseph Pearson & Susanna Everett, only Joseph signed.

There is a death for George Brighton, 0 years September quarter 1856, Depwade.
I favour Robert and Mary Ann who have several children over a quite a number of years. I can’t see them in 1861 though.

haven't spotted them in 1861 as yet.

Tibenham is one of the missing parts of the 1861 census.

That’s the explanation :)
I was going to go there next as I couldn’t find anything for the place.

oops, I made an error with the year of Robert & Mary Ann's marriage, 1844 not 54, now corrected.
