Hi Susan

Found them but the quality of the reproduction is very poor, tried 2 alternative providers but no difference.

1851 census, Oswaldtwistle, Daisy Green
HO 107/2260 folio 240 pg 7

Mary Norris; Head; Wid; [no occupation]; can't read where born
William do; son [ditto under wid]; 33; three words for occupation - no idea; Oswaldtwistle, Lancs
Alexander do; son; [ditto again]; 23; ditto for occupation; Oswaldtwistle
Michael do; son; 23; ditto for occupation; Oswaldtwistle
Alice ??; niece; 7; errand girl; Oswaldtwistle

Hope someone has a better copy than I can find for the details!

hi Sandra

I had the same problem looked at 3 different ones but still cannot make out mary's birth place it did look like york but 1841 states all born in county so that can't be right  I did manage to get a readable image well just about readable...

Hi

Think that Mary's birthplace is more local than that - Gale / Gate Bank?

Tried googling - Foxhill Bank, Oswaldtwistle; Peel Bank ..

Can't win them all

Hi all

Think Mary's birthplace is Yate Bank (as in Yate and Pickup Bank) just a couple of miles from Oswaldtwistle.
