Does anybody have any information at all on Oliver Jefferson, any birth, marriage, death or census details would be appreciated. All I know about Oliver is that he married a woman called Ann Young and he is from Hartlepool, County Durham, he moved to Craghead around the 1901 census as that is where his daughter, Sarah Jane Jefferson was brought up, she is my great-grandmother. This is all I know so any other relatives or any details would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks, Ben.

Brilliant, thanks very much, do you reckon there is anyway of searching for Oliver's parents, although he is born 1848ish i t may be hard?
