Could this be her? Only one birth of a REBECCA BLYTHMAN on file ever. However, she seems to have married another person (at least first time around, 1828 does seem a bit late)

Possible surname search. No matches though found in 1861 England Census for a Margaret born Maryport c1841

Almost right date, but Stockport is unlikely, wrong side of Manchester.

Hi Michael, Thank you for your e-mail. It looked like Mary and Joe didn't have children and by 1901 census it looked as if Joe was not in the nest any more. Although many of the family do emigrate to Canada, Mary didn't and she died in 1939 at the age of 80. Thanks for your help. Cheers Joe
