I've just looked at Ripon bapts ( Holy Trinity and St Wilfred) for that period (1860-1868) and there are no children of a Thomas . Trouble is once people moved to the city they often gave the nearest town rather than the actual village of birth, 21 could just be the way they said of full age as well whereas she might be a bit older or does the census bear that out?

Hello all Does anyone know anything at all about Crossbeck House in Normanby near Middlesbrough? I am trying to establish who owned the place in the 1840 - 1850s. I believe that a Henry Scott-Waring lived there between the 1841 and 1851 censuses. I know it is now a children's hospice called Zoe's Place, but it the easlier history of the place that I am interested in. Thanks you. Anne from Somerset West, South Africa

Good day. I am researching my 3x greatgrandfather Michael Bulmer, a stone mason, who I believe was born about 1785-1790. In the 1851 census living in Holbeck, Leeds, he and his wife Elizabeth are listed; she as born in Egglescliff, Cty Durham and he as born in Tunshall, Yorkshire. Problem is, there is no "Tunshall" that I can find in Yorkshire. After discussing this with several people online, it seems most likely that it is a typo for Tunstall. Since his wife Elizabeth Hartburn is from Egglescliff it is most likely that it is the Tunstall that is part of Great Ayton parish. I also know there are other Bulmer's in this parish, and is quite close to the area where the Bulmer familiies orginated before the Norman Conquest. I have looked at the Cleveland FHS site with no luck, looked at any Great Ayton parish records online on GENUKI, again no luck. I would dearly love to find out more about my ties to this fascinating family, and any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Any information on Hartburn's from Egglescliff would be lovely also. Thanks! Valerie in PA, USA

Have you tried the Cleveland, North Yorks, and South Durham FHS? They are a very good FHS. Ruth

Hi Phyllis I have HALTON ancestry. My lot were in Askrigg, North Yorkshire for a while. Emanuel had children, Samuel bn 1803; Timothy 1805; Emanuel 1807; Richard 1810; Isabella 1813 baptised in Askrigg. Timothy married Elizabeth and moved to Richmond Yks. Their daughter Margaret born about 1828 Richmond, married William ROBINSON and I am descended from them. I have traced the other families descendants. The name is not that common so it is possible that there is a connection between our lines.
