"Yorkshire Strays" & Durham residents

The following is a comprehensive list of "Yorkshire strays" (born in Yorkshire, but living elsewhere at the time of the 1891 census) and their families. I have also added all other Ellerton families born/living in Durham. If you have other census details not shown below please drop me an e-mail so that I can add them to this list.

Hyperlinks to my own "direct" line are shown in bold.
