    3. As I live in Canada I rely on the internet for a lot of my genealogical information. I would really appreciate any help from other interested parties. According to the 1881 census for Haswell, Durham, England, my great great grandfather William Lawson lived at 9 6th Cross Road with his wife Elizabeth. Elizabeth was born in Murton abt. 1826. They had a son George born about 1864 in Hartepoole and another, my great grandfather, William born about 1867 also in Hartepoole. A daughter Margaret was born there abt. 1869 and another son James in 1871. Would anyone with access to the 1871 Census be able to give me further information about the family. I have tried unsuccessfully to establish a wedding date which would undoubtedly provide a maiden name for Elizabeth. Also in 1891, a son John, born in Ruabon Wales abt. 1849, mysteriously appears on the Census. I am left to wonder whose son he is - William's or Elizabeth's? Thank you in advance for any help.
