Census Lookup and Resource Requests / Re: 1861 census in Tynemouth - look-up please?

Ah, you're a star, Pam! The second half of the listing is definitely the right family - the three children in the right order.  What a relief, I was beginning to think they were trying to throw me off the track!

Thank you so much  :-*

Ah, glad it's not just me. I will have a look and see if there are any recommendations re the various databases available - I had assumed that they had basically all bought licenses from the same supplier but evidently not!

I totally agree about not trusting others' uploaded trees - I've corrected enough of my own errors over the years to know how difficult they can be to unpick!

Ah, looks like they might be in Kent again - Ancestry has Catherine Oconnell b 1827 with Patrick as spouse. I was using FindMyPast and they don't seem to be listed at all!

Shame as I was thinking about taking out a subscription with FindMyPast as I had been impressed with their website over the past couple of days.

Thanks so much, stitchwitch. Catherine born 1826 in Cork, so 35-ish. Patrick also Cork but the 1861 census is the only one he appears on as he died before 1871 so no idea of age. Children's births are in variously Ireland, Kent (Gravesend - Chatham) and Shields, Durham.

Hi

Could anybody please let me have the details of Patrick and Catherine Connell (or O'Connell) in Tynemouth, North Shields, Northumberland, please?

Hopefully there will be a few kids: James, Mary, Ellen.

What with the surname keeping changing and Patrick seeminly moving about as a navvy, I am hoping this is the right couple at last!

Many, many thanks!

Kate

Sorry, yes, I just checked the original sheet again and both the births are typed under Rumsby and the one that was new to us was marked with an 'a'. The hand-written entries are not mine.

Them's the ones. The typed entry, R, is how my great-uncle was always known and he did indeed die in 2000. Do you think there might be more information on the amendment?
