John Weatherill of Burrythorpe
Since posting my first message in August this year a lot more information has been obtained which shows that the 1881 census data for the Weatherill family I am researching was quite incorrect.I now know that Thomas Weatherill was born in or near Kilvington. His parents were John Weatherill, b. 1820 in Burrythorpe, and Mary Poulton, bap. 18 April, 1824, Kilburn.
Mary Poulton had a daughter Sarah in 1847,before her marriage to John.
In 1861 and 1871 John was living at Coxhoe, Co. Durham. In 1881 he was at Quarrington Hill.
If anyone can connect with this family, or has relevant information, I would be pleased to hear from you.
