Re: Tracing Quilliams from Peel

Hello Frances,

Thank you for this additional info. Either Len or yourself had given me Catherine's marriage to Gell previously and as she was widowed soon afterwards, I was hoping for a later marriage to Quilliam to show up. If she was showing as 'Gell' in 1841, then that pretty well answers the question. I wondered why her son William was shown as 'son of' John Q and not 'illeg son' though, as Joseph was. Just an omission from the parish birth records I guess.
I will now have a look at that 1841census to see what I can make of it.
The end of your posting was chopped-off. Was it possible for a child to be listed at more than one address.
Regards,
Marjery
