LAIDLAW / LAIDLOW in 1841

Looking for James and his family in 1841 census.

including his wife is Isabella (nee Hall) - they were both born in Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland in 1805, according to the 1851 census.

Hopefully, with them will be daughter Mary born 1832ish in Newcastle Upon Tyne, and son William born 1834 Bermondsey, Southwark (so I would expect them to be somewhere in Surrey).

James was a Leather Dresser on the 1851 census. He and Isabella married on 19 October 1828 in Newcastle Upon Tyne.

Can anyone see them?

 

Just found a James LUDLOW a Skinner in Bermondsey. I wonder if that is him?

 

Just typing out the same family

3 of us cannot be wrong

 

Thank you Daft Bat and MollyMay - it must be them

Have found possible deaths for children Ann (1844) and Isabella (1842). Looking for Frances (Francis on FMP, but age in the female column).

Also, I wonder if Margaret aged 10 is Mary in later census? Is it Margaret or Mary something or Margery?

Silly me - Frances is Fanny in 1851

 

FreeBMD have this but I cannot find it on the GRO list

 

I wonder if the enumerator orinigally wrote Mary, but read it back as Marg = Margaret

 

GRO have the surname as laidlon

 

Well found, thank you

 

They have it as LAIDLON

A bit slow typing there, I knew I had found it before, but hadn't made a note of it. Well done WelchRegLost

 

I think Isabella, the mother died in 1856, but can anyone find a death for James, the father? Your guess is as good as mine as to what it might be under.

I think it must have been before 1861, as James, born 1845/6 is with his married sister Mary GRAMSON and her husband Daniel in 1861 (RG09/326/67/40).

Daniel GRAMSON or rather his father is another one I shall be asking for help with later.

 

Thanks Jan, so he should be on the 1861 census somewhere. I vaguely remember seeing a death in the workhouse, but wasn't sure. Will have to look again.

 

Found it. Shame there isn't any more info.

 

Yes, have tried looking - not having any success

 

He died on 23 September and was taken out on 24th "by his friends", so no burial date or place shown. Will keep looking.

 

I tried 'Deceased online' but seems not to be there, tried with Laidlaw & Laidlow.
