1891census lookup - MARSHALL.

[oppem]

Please, is there SKS who might look up a family that I hope had moved to Co.Durham by 1891 (probably from Scotland).
THOMAS MARSHALL  -  miner - maybe living in Haswell ??!!.
Wife - unknown.
ISABELLA MARSHALL - daughter - born abt. 1875 ?? in Scotland??.

** In 1893 Isobella married in Shotton ??.

There may be other children but am trying to trace Isobella who is my husbands G.Grandmother.
A big thank you to anyone who might have the time to help. Yours, Carol...

Thanks, I think I phrased above badly as I do have that information - I just dont seem to be able to go back any further with Isobella, hence wondered abt. 1891 census.  I much apprieciate your taking the time to send this to me.  Yours, Carol.

Hi Carol

Do you have the 1901 Census entry for Joseph and Isabella BARKER ?

There is an entry for a 26 year old Isabella BARKER, husband Joseph and children consistent with a 1893 marriage.

This Isabella was born and still living in Wheatley Hill, Wingate, Easington district in 1901.

In 1891 this Isabella is with parents Thomas and Hannah MARSHALL in Easington district, but there is no reference to Scotland for any of them.

A positive 1901 Census entry would be useful to help find the 1891 Census entry.

Helen, thanks for the information.
I did have the 1901 entry for Isobella & family, BUT my husbands family INSIST she was born in Scotland!!!.
I am almost sure that the 1901 entry is correct family (but we all know that sometimes what is written on census returns is not always correct - eg. born in wheatley hills).
If you have the 1891census for this Isobella and it states that neither her or her family were born in Scotland, I think that has to pretty much squash that theory.
Would there be any chance you could send me all the details of that entry for 1891??.  I would love to find details of her parents / siblings / ANYTHING..... It would be a great help to me.
Again, a very big thank you for your time & effort.  Yours, Carol..

Helen, thanks for that very prompt reply - we are just getting up over here in Oregon, USA. - this is a very big help to me.

Can I just verify that on 1891census form ALL the Marshall's mentioned were born in Wheatley Hills, Durham ??  Or if not - where.

Again thanks for you time - seems like Scotland is some kind of 'family myth'.
Best of wishes, Carol..

Sorry Helen - just reread above and it does say where they were born - forgive me - as I said, have just got up over here. Best of wishes, Carol.
