1861 I keep coming back to this one but the image is clear as Rigg but in the same area as the 1851 entry Name: Robert Rigg Age: 38 Estimated birth year: abt 1823 Relation: Head Spouse's name: Hannah Gender: Male Where born: Moorhouse, Cumberland, England Civil parish: Gateshead Ecclesiastical parish: St Mary County/Island: Durham Country: England Registration district: Gateshead Sub-registration district: Gateshead ED, institution, or vessel: 25 Neighbors: View others on page Household schedule number: 78 Household Members: Name Age Hannah Rigg 45 Nettey Rigg 12 Robert Rigg 38 Source Citation: Class: RG9; Piece: 3805; Folio: 35; Page: 14; GSU roll: 543189 Think I will have to rule this one out as Robert is a joiner
