I should have also said that George Coulson born 1838 is a child of George and Mary Coulson.  His brother is Thomas Coulson. 

The 1841 census has George Snr, Mary, George and Thomas in Oakham.  It says that George Snr wasn't born in the county but the others were.

In 1851 census, Mary has now married Abraham Riley and is living with him and two of their children along with George Coulson jnr and Thomas Coulson.  It states that George Jnr was born in Stamford and Thomas in Oakham.

1n 1861 the nearest George Coulson I can find is one living in Islington born 1839 but it states that he was born in Welton in Lincolnshire.  There are a lot of Thomas Coulsons born around 1840

Freebmd.org.uk has:
George Coulson birth June quarter 1838.  reference: stamford 14 563
Thomas Edward Coulson birth sept quarter 1840; reference Oakham 15 653

George Coulson snr died in 1844 in New South Wales Australia.

Hi,

I'm related to Mary Towell who married George Coulson and also Abraham Riley (my 2x great grandfather). 

From George's and Mary's marriage certificate it states that George's father was William.  A labourer.  They were married in Burley in November 14, 1837.  George was 35 and a single man.  residence at time of marriage was burley.  Spelling of surname is Colson on the certificate.

Hope this helps

Sue
