Looking for:- The Pickering family in DRIFFIELD (just north of Hull). Head should be Joseph B Pickering born c1820, Driffield Wife Martha born c 1823 .... elsewhere in Yorkshire. Would be interested in children with them.

Laird - before I go trawling - are you 100% certain it is likely to be Driffield? I'd guess from their ages that any of their children will be mid-late teens - have you got any of the kids names/ages/pob etc?? Or Joseph/Martha marriage??

Hiya - ta muchly. 99.9% - can see em in DRIFFIELD in the 1871, with young kids Joseph b1864 and Martha 1862 both born DRIFFIELD - looking for an older batch of kids, including a Mary born c1845.

Laird - not a problem :)) Will do it later today - have had a pressure washer on hire and I need to finish the job I got it for & get it back by 5pm. Just in case anyone else starts looking, I'll check the thread first, but I will do it today. Jools
