Hello Barbara Race married Thomas Shutt at Gainford, Co Durham. Could someone take a look at the census years 1841 to 1871. In 1851 she is in Richmond and 1861 and 1871 Staindrop in Teesdale. I can't find her in 1841. I would like to know who is in her family. Thank you.

Hello gins, yes I think it must be, you have to laugh at the translation of the name though.

But didn't she marry before 1841? A tree on Ancestry says her first child was born 1835. It says her parents are Thomas Race (1778-) and Mary Hall.

It gives childrens' names as:
Mary 1835
Elizabeth 1838
Thomas 1840
Sarah 1842
Anne 1844
Benjamin 1847
John 1850
William 1853
Margaret 1856

On that 1841 census there's also a lodger in the household, difficult to read but it could be Mary Race aged 60.

Margee

You're right, well spotted

Mary Race age 60yrs

I think she is actually next door looking at the //

Thank you, I guess that must be her mother. So Thomas the father must have died before 1841. On the Ancestry tree does it give any other information about the Race family or is it a tree on the Shutt family?

The tree on Ancestry is titled "Penfold current" and the owner is BrianMayes54. The only Race info is Barbara's parents Thomas Race & Mary Hall.
