I can't find the HUTCHINSON family in the 1841 census. In 1851 they are living at Carlton, North Yorkshire JOHN HUTCHINSON - farmer born c1789 Redmire, North Yorkshire ELIZABETH HUTCHINSON born c 1796 Thoralby, North Yorkshire JOHN HUTCHINSON born c 1828 Carlton, North Yorkshire (There might POSSIBLY be an ALICE born c 1825 living with them too) They should be in the North Yorkshire area (I think!). I think it may be a case of them being mistranscribed but I've tried all ways I can think of to find them with no luck. Any help gratefully received.

Thanks for finding them Jim. It's definitely them. Don't know how I managed to miss them as they're living at the same place as they were in 1851! Elizabeth must've been off visiting that day However .... Gill - your John and Elizabeth are with an Ann Metcalfe in Kirby Malzeard - as Elizabeth's maiden name was Metcalfe I'm now wondering if they were visiting a relative and John is down twice on the same census (it's happened to me before when people have been visiting relatives) Thank you both very much - I really appreciate your help. Best wishes Diane

Hi Diane, Yes it happened to me on 1861 my 2xgrt grandad is recorded as been at home with parents & sibblings, but is actually living two streets away with the married women he eventually marries, and her husband is living alone in the family home in the next street, can you believe it !!!! Gill
