So...... The 60 year old Sarah on the 1841 census with Mary, Luke & William is the GRANDMOTHER?I can only find one Sarah buried at St Nicholas.

Elaine.

All these names are floating around in my head as Malcolm Nunn and I transcribed St Nicholas. I don't know if you saw part of my message were I said that I can't guarantee that we got all the Baptisms & Marriages that were performed at St Nicholas as the register pages (on fiche) that I used were not in good condition. We might have to redo some of the pages again at a later date.

Hi Cathie

One of the witnesses at the marriage is John Birch. So that could be a father or a brother (?). That might help in trying to track down earlier records.

The 60 yr old Sarah on the 1841 census is the mother, not the grandmother.

Hi Elaine, Diana Ibbotson is the daughter of Sarah Ibbotson, nee Gosling, the eldest daughter of Sarah and William Gosling.

Now I get the picture. That clears up the possibility of another Sarah.

Diana Ibbotson is with her grandmother Sarah Gosling on the 1841 census.

The 1851 census.
Sarah Gosling Head
Widow Female 69 1782 Farmer of 40 acres Bradfield, Yorkshire, England
Luke Gosling Son
Unmarried Male 23 1828 Farmers son at home Bradfield, Yorkshire, England
William Gosling Son
Married Male 26 1825 Farmers son at home Bradfield, Yorkshire, England
Eliza Gosling Daughter-in-law
Married Female 20 1831 - Bradfield, Yorkshire, England
Mark Fairest Visitor
Unmarried Male 26 1825 File smith Bradfield, Yorkshire, England

Sarahs age seems to change quite often. LOL
