Tribute from the "Land Down Under" (Lat 17.5s Long 146.4e) Hello to All, The family MACHELL that I am looking for was listed in the 1851 census at Egton in Lancashire. No mention of them in 1861 census so may have moved to Westmorland or Cumberland as John was born in Kendal, or they may have moved to Durham or North Yorkshire. Family in 1851 comprised: John (Head) age 29 b. Kendal Maria (Wife) age 35 b. Ulverston Mary (dau) age 3 b. Egton cum Newlands Sarah (dau) age 8 months b. Egton cum Newlands. What I seek is something from census 1861 or 1871 if such exists or similar timespan info. By then the family could have the addition of one George Edward MACHELL born c1851-1853 "near Keswick in the Lake district of Westmorland", according to his obituary. And he is the one that I am really chasing! Be kind and hope to be right Dean Newman, North Queensland Australia. "As time goes by" kenyon@znet.net.au "The more you learn the less you know"
