Claire - don't forget I've the 1851 index for Scarborough and District, so you can bat those over to me if it will help you (we probably both work different shifts lol)

Cheers for that Sue, Out of all these disks, i really dont like the Leeds ones and the surrounding areas, they are a nightmare, so vague on the area index as well. Will let you know if i get any more requests for them. Regards, Claire

hi claire, if you get any requests for batley/ morley/wortley/ gildersome/ farnley or armley- give me a shout . i have the index books, so can give you ref's. plus i can nip into local library for mirfield/ dewsbury and possibly birstall. you have certainly got a major job on , if i can help with ref's , let me know. sue x

Hi Susan and Margaret, Ive got 2 bad shifts to work today and tomorrow so it will be Thursday i get a chance to have a look at your families now as they are large areas to go through and i need a couple of spare hours, lol. Thank you for your patience. Regards, Claire

Hi Jonothon, Ive found your Moses family in Deighton. Saved the image for you. Please let me know your email address and i will send. Regards, Claire

Thought I'd post my thanks on this board as well as via e mail. Much appreciated, Claire Debby

Hi Douglas, The census is not named indexed so i would need an area or street of a city/town to look for these people. Regards, Claire

Hi Claire, Can you please check on any Thomas Lyness, Robert Lyness or the other spelling Thomas Lynas and Robert Lynas. Many Thanks Douglas.

Hi Would you please have time to look up two families for me? One is Dunnell(possibly Dunill,dunnhill,or dunhill!).My greatgrandfather Ebert(or hibbert) was born in swinton,rotherham 1835-1838.I have him getting married in brampton bierlow in 1861. If you can't find him can sou see if there is a John(his dad) possibly married to Amelia. The other is john adamson born mexborough c1815 married to maryann. Many thanks Margaret

HI Linda, Do you know what district or parish of Doncaster your Everitt family will be likely to be? I cant search through the whole of Doncaster, it goes over 2 disks. Regards, Claire

Hi Claire I have very little info on the wherabouts of George & Jane Redfearn in 1851 but someone kindly found Jane's parents in 1861 and at that time they were living at 35 St Peters Street, NE District of Leeds. Daughter Jane was already married by the time of the 1851 but maybe she was living near her parents. Regarding Birstall - GenUKI has this - BIRSTALL, a parish-town, in the township of Gomersal, Morley-division of Agbrigg and Morley, liberty of Pontefract; 7 miles SW. of Leeds and Bradford, 7½ from Halifax, 8½ from Huddersfield, 31 from York. Having said all that, i looked at my records again and see that, although George Redfearn was born in Birstall, in 1841 George and his parents were living in Liversedge. Hope this helps in your search. Many thanks Sue

thanks Claire, I've emailed you Karen

Hi Susan, Leeds is impossible to search without an address. Its only broken into South, East, West and North Leeds so will need to know which part and what district to look for. They are the worst disks on this census. The Birstall they could be, is that part of Leeds or is the Birstal that is part of Bradford? Regards, Claire

Hi Karen, Gone through Cawood and cannot find your Grainger or Render families but i did find 2 other Render families that i have saved the images for. Let me know your email address if you would like them. Regards, Claire

Hi Jonothon, The Deighton you want, is it Kirk Deighton? If so, ive gone through there and cannot find your family. I couldnt see any other Deighton's but please let me know if there is. Regards, Claire

Hi Debby, Ive gone through Eccleshill and cannot find a David Taylor at all so i have emailed you the widowed Harriet Taylor to see if she is yours. Regards, Claire

HI, I would be very grateful if you could find 2 families living in Cawood. Grainger......were living in Sherburn St Cawood in 1861 John Grainger would be abt 23. Hopful he is living with some family ?!?! Render.......not sure of an address John would be abt 1 Another John abt 34 maybe married to Mary. Plus any other Renders or Graingers would be wonderful Thank you!!

Hi Claire, Wonderful!! Thank you so much it was a lovely way to start a dreary monday morning! Take care Best wishes Diane

Hiya Ickle Could you please try and find George Redfearn and his wife Jane. They married in February 1851 in the Parish Church, Leeds. George was born in Birstall in 1826 - so would be 25ish Jane was born in Leeds in 1827 - 24ish I am guessing they will either be in Birstall or Leeds. Sue

Hi Diane, Ive got your Atack families in Stubbs Waldon. Got the images as well. Have emailed them to you. Enjoy. Regards, Claire
