(1) William BRUCE & Ann WILLIAMSON bapt. 27 Oct 1782, GATESHEAD m. 24 Feb 1805, Gateshead (2) John BRUCE b. 1 Dec 1811, Chester-le-Street & Elizabeth THURLBECK dd. 12 Dec 1901, Sunderland m. 25 Dec 1834, Sunderland (3) Sarah BRUCE b. 18 Dec 1837, Sunderland & George BRANTINGHAM b. 17 Jul 1835, Houghton-le-Spring m. 1 Aug 1860, Sunderland Does anyone have an interest in this line? I am trying to track down data on William BRUCE who is my GGG Grandfather. It is possible he was born in S. SHIELDS, circa 1774 (per IGI) but this is far from certain. TIA.
