Hi: I'd be interested in finding any connection to Mary and Isabella NICHOLSON born 1837 and 1839 respectively, in Ayres Quay, Sunderland. They are the sisters to my great grandfather Anthony George. Parents are George and Alice NICHOLSON, nee ROSS. The 1851 census shows them living at 139 Ford Terrace, with siblings Alice 7, Elizabeth Grace 6 and William James 2. A further sibling is born in November 1851 - Dorothy Hannah. Mary and Isabella do not appear with the family in 1861 when they would have been 25 and 23. I'm assuming they are married, or have died. I tried looking for a marriage registration, but with those two common names my choices are too many! If anyone has these two girls in their family I'd love to hear from you. Linda.
