Happy New Year listers! I'm reposting my MAKEPEACE interest in County Durham, in case the names are familiar to anyone here. I'm resonably sure that I've found my gt-gt-grandfather Thomas in the 1841 Census - he was age 15 and living with his parents Joshua and Elizabeth MAKEPEACE in Blaydon, Winlaton. Most of the family were born "Out of County" - I think in Allan Dale, in Northumberland. No trace of Joshua after that (he isn't the Joshua that dies in 1848 or in 1852 - they are both his grand-sons). Other children of Joshua and Elizabeth then were Joseph 15, Isabella 12, Elizabeth 10, Matthew 8, Rebecca 14 and Joshua 2. There must be some interest in the family I hope!
