  • Can anyone find these on the 1861 census please.

    Sunny Rosy has just found the following Marriage details for me, which proves that these two sisters are the same ones that I have in my tree who, if I have the correct ones, both remarried a few years later.

    Elizabeth Lissamon married Peter Sweeney 27th November 1852 at East Stonehouse. He was a seaman. She was 20 years old, her father was James a pensioner and she was living at 3 George St., East Stonehouse, Devon.

    Maria Lissamon married George Grainger 20th December 1852 at East Stonehouse. He was a seaman. She was 19 years old, her father was James a pensioner and she was living at 3 George St., East Stonehouse, Devon.

    Both girls born in East Stonehouse, Devon.

    Can anyone find either of these couples on the 1861 census please. (I'm hoping you can't!!)

    I can't check Maria's signature on the two certificates as she just put her mark on both.

    Weren't your Lissamon's norn in Ireland iirc? There's an Elizabeth Sweeney born 1831 Ireland living with a James Sweeney in Manchester, an Elizabeth (1827) and Peter (1834) Sweeney in Bootle, Liverpool, but none of them really add up. Couldn't find anything solid on Maria either.

      Why are you hoping we can't find them Wendy? Do you know something we don't?

                    No deaths found, but they were both seamen, so they could have died anywhere!

                      Well you have me stumped Wendy. I looked for them on the 1841 and 1851 too, just so that I could pinpoint birth details but I can't find them on there either.

                        p.s. I meant to say that on free BMD marriages they are both listed as Lisamon i.e. One s.

                          Ahhh I assume this is them in 1851? Transcribed as Lesman? No Elizabeth there though.

                            In 1851 Elizabeth is a servant in Stoke Dameral.

                            In 1841 the family minus father who is a Royal Marine are in Ledbury Workhouse. Father was born in Ledbury.

                              I see her now Wendy. The name must have been difficult to research for you, it's so liable to mistranscription.

                                    Thanks for looking. I have Elizabeth with a new husband living in East Stonehouse and Maria is with her new husband in Dublin in 1861.

                                    Looks as if the 1st husbands either died somewhere abroad or at sea, or they left them or perhaps they were married already! Just don't know.

                                        I have marriages for both of the 2nd marriages. Both girls stated they were spinsters, that is why it was odd to find two previous marriages.
