Jane Pass (nee Byers)

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Marian Report 19 Jan 2019 20:30

Hello, Jane Byers marries Edward Pass 5 March 1849 at St Thomas, Stockton on Tees, Co Durham. (Jane baptised 16/7/1822 at Guisborough, Yorkshire). Edward born Easington, Yorkshire. I have all the census for son Robert but I cannot find Jane after 1861 or the two girls. As Edward was a sailor, he may have died at sea.

This is 1861 census

1861 census Church Street Guisborough

Jane Pass 38 married dressmaker
Robert Pass 12 son Guis
Mary A Pass 10 daughter Guis
Hannah J Pass 8 daughter Guis

I think below is Edward although it says born Barlby

1861 census Stockton Street Stranton

Jane Watson 33 head unmarried Guisborough
Robert Watson 51 brother mariner Guisborough
George Watson 43 brother boot and shoemaker Guisborough
Mary Jane Watson 10 niece Guisborough – George daughter
John Augusta Watson 2 nephew Guisborough
Edward Pass 38 mariner Barlby Yorkshire

Below is the 1871 census for Lofthouse Yorkshire but this is Edward's mother, his sister and his nephew.

1871 Lofthouse Yorkshire

Jane 59 single dressmaker Lofthouse Yorkshire
John 20 son Easington Yorkshire blacksmith (illegitimate?)
Elizabeth Pass 89 mother widowed Easington Yorkshire

Found this for Jane for 1881 but not sure

1881 census Brunswick Street Stockton

Robert Lee 29 Thirsk
Mary Jane Lee 31 Stockton
Walter Lee 1 Stockton
Jane Pass 58 visitor Guisborough nurse domestic widow
Martha Dack 16 servant Norfolk

There is a death for a Jane Pass Sept q 1895 aged 73 middlesbrough area which would fit Jane's date of birth.

Can anyone find Jane or the girls 1871 onwards? The above census are off family search.

Hope the above makes sense.

Thank you.
