Classification: Census
Hello Louise,

Looking at Michael's reply, you can actually follow the line which he found. REMEMBER that this is only guess work until you prove it, but it does look like a possibility.

1901 census, shows them listed as MARKETT, but the handwritten copy of the census, shows that it could easily be Mockett.

1901 England Census
about Hetty B MARKETT
Name: Hetty B MARKETT
Age: 23
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1878
Relation: Wife
Spouse's Name: Henry Thomas
Gender: Female
Where born: Guisborough, Yorkshire, England

Civil Parish: Guisborough
Ecclesiastical parish: St Nicholas
Town: Guisborough
County/Island: Yorkshire
Country: England

Remainder of the family are:-

Emily E MARKETT 3
George MARKETT 1
Henry Thomas MARKETT 24
Hetty B MARKETT 23

1901 census, living at 41 Northgate, Guisborough.

Thomas seems to be calling himself Thomas Henry, althogh the marriage indictes that it is Thomas James. It could be a mistake in transcribing the marriage, but there are often slight differences in names. The census states that all of the above were born in Guisborough. If the family moved to Northumberland, it was after 1901, but Michael found other births, which could easily be this family.

IF the above is correct, then on the 1881 census we can find the following:-

Living at 3 South Street, Guisborough. Father George is a Lead Miner.

1881 England Census
about George Mockell

Remainder of the family are:-

1881 census. Listed as Mockell, but transcription gives an alternative name of Mockett, and handwiritten copy appears to say Mockett.


Agnes Mockell 14
Ann Mockell 44
Elizabeth Mockell 10

WE can then trace a possible marriage for George and Ann
