yes am still looking for christopher, he does not appear on any census, so am presuming he died between 1836 and 1841. His son John born 1835 died 1836 and is recorded as dead in the national buriel index, but there is no entry for christopher.
he is not listed as deceased on his son matthews (born 1832) marriage certificate in 1857, but I am told this would not be unusual.
I have a record of his marriage to Elizabeth Meynell for 1831 in Lartington catholic church, romaldkirk, but no details. I imagine he was born around 1800 or possible later, eliabeth was born in 1799 - so it was quite a late marriage for her.
Am totally stuck.
