Looking to find Thomas Howe's parents and siblings. Can find him in 1851 census newly married giving an approximate birth year of 1827 in West Auckland, Durham but nothing else.

He married Rachael Bland early 1850 in Auckland, any help appreciated,

Regards Katlady

The obvious thing to do here will be to get the marriage certificate.  It is on freebmd so you can get the reference from that.  Have you checked Durhamrecordsonline?   It may show on there and save a few pounds.  Or familysearch?

Since it seems from your initial request that you don't know the names of his parents, how are you going to know if this is 'your' Thomas (if indeed he is with his family)?

As sillgen said in her reply, you really need to get his marriage certificate, which should give his father's name and occupation  :)

Unfortunately the two Thomas Howe who are living in Auckland area in the 1841 census one is living in Merrington the other Hamsterley, but not with any other Howe family.

So as sillgen has said the only way is to get his marriage certificate to find out his fathers name.

But if he was born in West Auckland - I would have thought he would be Baptised in St Helen's Auckland Church in St Helen Auckland.

But there is loads of Howe families in the area. So as we have said the only way to find his parents is his marriage certificate.

And the marriage is a Registry marriage so no way we can look for it.
