Hi,
Does anyone know any clever ways to edit this page to read the details about the Gregory family?

The head is James Gregory and his wife is Betsy (Elizabeth).

My details so far say they have Alice in c1848 and Mary in c1849.

Particularly interested in the two where the relationship might say "Brother".

Thanks!

I think the bottom one may be Joseph.
His brother Joseph was living with them still in in 1861 (aged 19).

And I think the one above that is George, aged 15.

I think the son is Thomas.

Thanks for looking Kate.
Hmm, can't see a Thomas with the correct details in the birth index. There is an Edwin James, born JFM 1851 who it could be?

Yes, could be Edwin.

Yes, could be Edwin.

I think it must be. I have found the christenings for the daughters and Edwin James (all matches up in the index too).

I'm not sure that the page you are interested in is listed here:

http://www.1851-unfilmed.org.uk/intro.htm

but I thought I would point out this site anyway as I've found it useful for other Manchester 1851 census records.

Thanks Merry. Can't see them on there at first glance, but it may be useful for the future!
