I was wondering whether this Mary WHITE on BCC could be the 15 year old daughter in the above 1841 census ... which would make her the sister of the Richard WHITE from the marriage of 1856

I notice that she married a WHITEHOUSE .. and there is a WHITEHOUSE as a witness on that marriage for Richard WHITE
My 'ancestry' membership has expired & can't rejoin till I get my new credit card through ( grrrr!)
... so I am struggling to search around this connection.... It would be nice to see if there were WHITEHOUSEs and COLEMANs and WHITEs living near each other

What do you think?
