Marriage:
1851 (age 32-33)
In the 1861 Census Eleanor is shown as the wife of William Lauderdale. He also has two sons Edward and Thomas both aged 20. However, Eleanor cannot be their mother as she would have been only 14 when they were born. Also the baptismal records for Edward and Thomas show that their mother was called Jane and that they were baptised in 1840.Thus Eleanor was William's second marriage. A search of marriage registrations showed that their marriage was registered in the quarter ending March 1851 in Newcastle-on-Tyne.
