2. Charles & Jane's family are shown in the 1841 Census.

3. There is the possibility that David & Margaret Jones are the same parents that appear in the Grinton Parish Records.

4. 3 Generations of our own ancestors appear in the marriages:

No. 2. David Jones & Susannah Cook 1748

No. 3. Charles Jones & Eleanor March 1772

No. 8. David Jones& Martha Spence 1803

5. There is an interesting shot of some old cottages at Washfold (maybe miners' cottages) perhaps linked to the 1851 Census entry:

Washfold Cottage, Marrick

6. It appears that George Jones appears 3 time in the Parish Records:

- in the christening with father Charles

- Entry in Poll Book 1834

- Entry in Probate Records 1837 with his brothers Charles & David mentioned
