I have Mary Steel with her family in 1881 but her mother is a widow so will need to hunt for where her father was born, possibly on the 1871 Census. I will look for it on my next visit to the local record office. Whereabouts are you in the world? I live in Cumbria, England so can get easy access to the Cumbrian records at the local office. I really enjoy this so am happy to try to find anything you need as regards Cumbria, or Cumberland as it was then. I notice you said to e-mail you. I assume you mean by replying on the message board link as I have no other way of knowing how to contact you direct. I have never used the message boards before and my attention was drawn by the mention of Twentyman as I have people in my family tree with the surname Twentyman. I'm not sure when I'll be at the record office next owing to the Easter holidays, but I will look up some info when next I go.
