Hi Jeanette I believe you are referring to the 1881 Census entry for Elizabeth Johnson. A later census (1891) gives her birthplace as Durham City, so "New Durham" may refer to New Elvet, which is a part of Durham City. You can find a list of addresses of local register offices on the GENUKI website. Cheers Pat =================================== Mrs Pat Pierpoint Hon.
