Is there anybody out there that could help me i think i have found my great grandad in durham prison on the 1901 cencus also on the cencus is the name of my Great great grandad. I am not 100% if either of them are my relatives but it is looking likely.

Owen Burns abt 1846
Henry Burns 1883

Is there anyone with access to the records or if you could point me in the right direction any help would be much appreciated. thanks penny

Hi
 I have had a quick look on ancestry, both henry and Owen are in durham jail in 1901 I cant see a record of their crimes
1891 Henry Burns aged 8 born abt 1883 is living at Heworth Monkton with father Owen Burns ( sailor or tailor ) born abt 1846, and mother Bridget born abt 1851 both born Ireland.

the family also appear on 1881 record.
