1841 Census - GULLIVER

[lanelad]

Hi All, Have i missed the bus?
This thread seems to have gone underground, and i have just found it.
In short, i have Durham Gullivers, which seem to have contacts with this site.

Hi, My Gt grandmother was Mary Gulliver (b1883), daughter of George Gulliver & Elizabeth Trippett. Have info on the family in Spennymoor/Tudhoe area, Durham City, Easington & South Shields. But only have my particular line back to 1805. Suspect an Irish connection before that but cannot prove.
Happy to swap info, get in touch, but might be away from the computer quite a bit over Christmas, so I cannot promise an immediate response....

Hi Jackie,
Thanks for the contact. Where to begin!  I have feeling that my Gt grandad James Gulliver(Sunderland on the various Census`was maybe from Sunderland Bridge. I did find a James in Sunderland, that i doubted, but after reading this thread its possible that he may be with his sister Mary and her husband(only a guess), and that might be him on  Jen B`s Gollefairs.On the 1881 census James is with his family in Easington Lane, all ch. except the last are born there. the youngest is born Spennymoor !!! , but two more now left home were born Sherburn. The eldest, James is in Sunderland bridge in 1901.
Have you any connection with these?
                            Regards Fred

Adam,
Sorry I have taken so long to respond but I have been out of circulation and have changed my ISP and e-mail address as well, thus I wasn't alerted to your message.
I think that you have found the right events, particularly because I had tentatively had James Gulliver married to Elizabeth Gilberson. IGI has Elizabeth Gilbertson b. 29 Mar 1801 and bapt. 30 Mar 1801 at Trimdon, which is the right sort of area. She was the daughter of Richard Gilbertson and Magdalen Smith. Madglen Smith Gilberson remarried Peter Barrow on 12 Sep 1824 at Manchester Cathedral. You quote the sponsors of James Gulliver as Peter and Magdalen Patten. It looks much like a misprint, doesn't it? Is there any chance of a double-check please, pretty please?
Best wishes,
Terry

The Trimdon baptisms says Elizabeth Gilbertson born 29 Mar 1801, baptised 30 Mar 1801 3rd daughter of Richard Gilbertson, farmer, native of Hutton Many Geese?, Yorkshire by his wife Magdalene Smith native of this parish

Says the same thing with daughter born in 1799 and on son Richard John Pattison Gilbertson it says that Hutton Many Geese is near Easingwood Yorkshire [also known as Easingwold]

Janis,
Many thanks, I am moving forward slowly, as you can see from this message string. From your response, I assume that you may have the Trimdon BMD. Do you have them all, including RC?
