1861.
& Possible marriage of her parents :

1854 HARLAND Jane St Andrew
1854 DONKIN Edward St Andrew

Northumberland
Mary A Donkin abt 1855 Ravensworth, Durham, England Daughter St John
Northumberland
Thomas Donkin abt 1857 Newcastle Upon Tyne Son St John Northumberland
William Donkin abt 1859 Newcastle Upon Tyne Son St John

Registration district: Newcastle Upon Tyne
Sub-registration district: St Nicholas
ED, : 17
Folio: 103
Page: 25
Household schedule number: 137

Probably Hannah is not yet born at the time of the 1861 census.

Ravensworth is near Lamesley DUR, which fits with Mary Ann DONKIN 's
birth place on later censuses.
