Does anyone know if there is a surname index available to buy for the 1861 census for county Durham. Have tried a few of the obvious sites, but no luck so far. Pref CD or booklet Debbie

the only partial index for 1861 that I know of is at Durham record office.It's very sparse compared to 1851 but you may be lucky! Check on their website,click on information leaflets text only,and you'll get a list of whats avaliable.Good luck,Tony.

Hi all, Thomas, thanks, I'll have another look. Did check their web, must have missed it! Chris, thanks for your kind offer, but I have the 1861 myself, it's HUGE isn't? Hence the request for an index! Debbie

Hi,Chris, I know it's terribly cheeky but I don't suppose you could look up a Susan Murray age 17[ish] born in Ireland,should be in the Auckland area,and her brother Peter,age 14. Much appreciated if you could.

Diane I have looked in Bishop Aucland for Susan and Peter but I'm affraid I couldn't find them.I promise you I will look again (when I haven't got my son behind me playing with his lego) just in case I have missed them and I will be in touch if I find them. Chris
