I seem to remember from my family research around the Halifax area, that Raistrick was the name of a quarry. Is it relevant perhaps??

Thomas is here in 1881 as Thomas R Lambert

RG11/4477/24/2



Cant find Jane in 1881..but this looks like her in 1891

RG12/3651/15/23-Ecclesfield
Holdsworth Sq

Jane Lambert 70 head Widow b Rawden
Ann      " 25 dau b Eccleshill    Woolen Cloth Weaver

I think Ann should be abt 35 but she is entered as 25

Thomas lives only a stones throw away from the Thomas Raistrick and Jane Hopwood that Lizdb found for you earlier..

I wonder who the Thomas Raistrick is who is the father of these kids..I did notice a 10yr old Thomas Raistrick living next door to Jane Hopwood in the 1841 cencus..maybe its him.. ..I cant see it being the old guy Thomas he would have been 80 when young thomas was conceived and even older if he fathered Joseph and Ann as well..Like Lizdb said..Surley not!!!!!

This looks like Janes family in 1841

HOPWOOD

John 55      Stonemason
Elizabeth 50
Thomas 20    Mason
George 15        "
Samuel 15        "

The above  Samuel looks like he is the brother who is with Jane on the 1861 cencus.

I do hope after all this its the right family...
