    3. Hi In the 1861 census, RG 9 piece 3481 folio 91 p. 8 on the second line down, the birthplace for Harriott Wright is listed as Churchanstow, Yorkshire I cannot find anything resembling Churchanstow in either Genuki, or the England_Placenames.pdf I have also looked on the Sheffield supplementary page (Genuki parishes) and cannot find anything containing "stow" The parents are from Mattersey and Retford in Nottinghamshire, got married in Sheffield with the older son and younger son both giving Sheffield as their birthplace. Does anyone familiar with Yorkshire have an idea what this could be? Thanks Charlotte Edwards Vancouver, BC, Canada
