that's possible. But a bit hard to prove in the 1841 census I guess I should get the birth certificate to prove this. Heather

Was Grace her grandaughter?

Jim, Thanks. I can match William born in 1816 to what I know but the Grace you have is christianed in 1805, 25 years before my grace was born. Could it be that 1st Grace died? and Frances had another daughter Grace in 1831 that would make Frances 55 at Grace's birth - is this possible? Heather

Kay, Could possibly be the right william as I don't know where he was born. It is possible that the next door neighbours are related. Heather

I have located in the 1841 census Frances Gibbins age 65 and her son William age 25 with Grace age 10. I have her death in 1856 but..... I can't locate her in the 1851 census. Any help would be appreciated. Heather
