I have just discovered that my gt-gt-gt-grandfather George ROBSON was born in Stokesley about 1780 (date calculated from 1841 and 1851 census for Hexham NBL) His son William ROBSON for whom I have no birth or death dates, was married in Newcastle NBL in 1840 but later was in Hull where his son James was born 1848. Two requests please: 1)Would somebody please lookup the 1851 census for this family in Hull. The address on James' birth cert. is 4, Charles Place, Cottingham Place, Hull. (the LDS here has discontinued census lookups here so I am stumped for referencing this) 2)How do I get access to parish records for George for his birth and possibly marriage? Is there somebody who might be kind enough to look this up for me please? Paddy.

Hi Paddy, I have looked up the 1851 Yorkshire Census for William Robson aged 30-40 and can only find one William Robson, Dealer in Herbs, b. Northumberland, widower, lodger at Charles Street, Huddersfield HO107/2295/F398 Only other William Robson, b. Northumberland was a minister and no son James or others born Hull. Cannot find a James Robson age 2 - 4, father William in Yorkshire in 1851. Best Regards, Mike Simpson Penrith, NSW, Australia http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~agene
