Someting curious about that 1851 census is that Ruth is listed as daughter, widow, yet her surname is Mitchell. Was she perhaps a Mitchell who married a Mitchell?

Is it possible to locate a baptism for Thomas Mitchel... Thank you

Thomas recorded as a Weaver on original

SArah's record has also been entered as being in 1783, but the original page header
notes Baptisms Ladies Day March 25th 1782-March 25th 1783

MargaretM - I wonder if it's just that it was an automatic "Mitchell" given as she would have been Mitchell for longer than whatever her married name ?? and same name given for her son

EDIT - there again ????

Looking at Ruth's son's name, a possible marriage for Ruth
