Dear List, I hate to be a pest about this but would any of you know which district or what part of the 1851 census I would need to read to find residents of Dragon Villa, which I understand is on the outskirts of Durham. My g g grandparents, William Gray (father John Gray) and Sarah Maddison (father Lionel Maddison) were married January 1851 at St. Giles. Both listed their residences as Dragon Villa. I am hoping to find one or both of their families still living at Dragon Villa in the 1851 census to confirm their parents and siblings I have in my files. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!! Linda

<My g g grandparents, William Gray (father John Gray) and Sarah Maddison (father Lionel Maddison)> Hello Linda It seems by 1861 Wiliam and Sarah had moved on as they were not at Dragon Villa then. There was this entry for future reference. RG9/3742 Folio 54 Page 4 Sch 19 Dragon Villa, Saint Giles, Durham GRAY John Head Mar 59 General Broker Northumberland Jane Wife Mar 61 Durham Chester le St. Thomas Son Un 24 Coalminer Durham ELLIOT William Boarder Un 16 Coalminer Durham Chester le St. There were no Maddison families. For your ref. I looked at RG9/3742 Folios 53 to 72. Regards Helen K
