Hi listees, I thought I was back beyond my Great Grandmothers generation, but a check on other details threw a spanner in the works. According to family remembrance and a needle holder my G Grandmother Polly Smith (married to Nurser Smith) was an Askew before marriage. However I have obtained Birth Certs for her two daughters and her maiden name is shown as Surkle on one and Sawkill on the other. She and Nurser are in the 1891 & 1901 Census and that gives her birth as S & N Shields . Has anyone any thoughts. Also there was a Dinah Askew, niece listed at the same address  I have a photographs of her with the name Dinah Askew on one and Dinah Bell on the back of the other. In anticipation Jim White

Hi Bette I think the correct spelling should be Linnels. It is about 2m SE of Hexham and 3m SW of Corbridge. My gt-grandmother Sarah WILSON was a general servant on a farm there in 1851. The name was spelt Linolds in the 1851 census.

See Rootsweb Northumbria for this post: Hello All, I am searching for additional information on the Charlton's of Linolds Wood Farm near Hexham, Northumberland. It is now called the Linnel's. My earliest date for them was about 1774. James b.1774, John b.1750... This site for 1841 census info on Linoldswood and Linolds (comes under CORBRIDGE) http://www.users.totalise.co.uk/~r.macx/Corbridge.htm That should get you started!

Hi John & Listers, Thank you for the information. As regards locating church book records... would Corbridge, Thornbrough and Linnels, NBL all fall within the same parish area ca. 1700+/- ? These locations are associated with the BURDESS/BURDUS surname during the 1690-1720 time period. Thank you, Bette > Hi Bette > > I think the correct spelling should be Linnels.

Hello all In the late 1860s or early 1870s Thomas Gotts, together with 6 of his brothers, (sons of Paul Gotts & Elizabeth Bacon) left the village of Saxthorpe in Norfolk to work in the coal mines of Co Durham. For some time I have been looking for the marriage of Thomas to a Margaret c1870-72 without any success. They had 8 children as follows:- Elizabeth b1872 md Edward Evans at Stanley Mary Jane bc.1874 md George Ernest Tedds - Keighley District, West Yorks (lived in Haworth) Eliza bc.1877 md Robert Liddle 1896 - Auckland reg.district George b.1878 md Nellie Parkinson 1914 - Chester-le-Street reg.district Annie b.1880 - d.1893 Christiana (or Christianne) b.1882 md John R Riddell - Newcastle-upon-Tyne reg.district Matthew b.1884 md Lydia Jackson 1906 - Durham reg.district Agness b.1891 md. Wilfred Wilson 1913 - Auckland reg.district Matthew Gotts was killed in action in France in 1916 and he and Lydia had 3 children, that I know of, all born at Stanley: Thomas b.1909, Margaret Lydia b.1910 and Matthew b.1914. George & Nellie didn't have any children. I have been given information on the family of Elizabeth & Edward Evans but would be pleased to hear from anyone who has a connection to the other families. I am especially keen to find a marriage date for Thomas & Margaret. Many thanks Pat Upsall - from Tuross Head NSW Oz

Dear Listers, In trying to follow through on information recently received I am in need of a location for a place named "LINOLDS". The spelling of the place named may be in error as the source was a book thereby open to transcription errors. I do not know the county although I have some reason to believe that the location may be in the area of Corbridge and Thornbrough, NBL, although that is not a prerequisite. I have checked for "LINOLDS", or a place of similar spelling, in the Gazetteer of British Place Names website with no success. I am hopeful that someone with more familiarity to English place names than myself with be able to identify a likely location. Thank you, Bette

Evening Listers I am looking for the name/ancestors - HOOSON in the Gateshead area. I seem to be drawing a blank regarding this name. The little I have: John HOOSON born c1894 and married Ethel A WELSH in 1914 Gateshead Children: Katie, Ethel, John, Sidney, Terry, Ted, Margaret, Maud and Joan. Joan is my mother in law. She was born Gateshead 1920's I have little information to go on. Ethel Welsh (also spelt WELCH comes from a long line of Welch family originating from the West Rainton area ). Any information (or connections) about either family would be most welcome. Thanks Vicky

Evening All Is anyone researching the MCKAY family from the Newcastle Upon Tyne or Sunderland area? I am searching for the family of Charles Colin MCKAY who married Elizabeth Alice PIGGALES about March 1904 in Sunderland. According to their daughters birth certificate in 1909 he was a ship rigger. If anyone is researching these families I'd love to hear from you. Thanks Net

Hi Victoria Please ignore my previous posting. Perusal of the 1901 census shows many people by the name of John HOOSON - although none on Tyneside. I would therefore suggest that you need to buy the marriage certificate of John HOOSON and Ethel Welsh which will give the name of his father. Marriage Sept Quarter 1914 Gateshead 10a 1887 This will enable you to decide which of the many John HOOSONs in the 1901 Census is your man. From there you can work backwards. If you know his father's name get back to me and I'll check the various census entries for you.

Hello Victoria I wonder if you have the correct spelling HOOSON sounds to me very like the much more common Tyneside name HEWISON. There is a John HEWISON registered in Gateshead June 1894 10a 978 Do you have the marriage documents and the birth certificate for Joan HOOSON with the spelling like that?

HI Dave, I found an entry that might interest you, Burial Register index for Old Cemetery Hartlepool shows- 1890 3rd. Dec. George Gowland buried aged 11days. 1910 12th Jan. George Barker Gowland buried aged 6days. As the family were in Stranton/West Hartlepool by 1881 it could be that there are more burials for the family in Stranton Grange cemetery but I don't have an index for that one. The Cleveland FHS sells an index to this cemetery I believe, consult their website, a google search for the title Cleveland FHS will bring up the URL > In the 1871 census for Throston workhouse Ref. RG10 piece4914 folio48 > page30 is shown Hannah Gowland born Seaton Carew aged 29 married noted as an Inmae. I also found on the same Piece but on folio 47 page 28, Catherine Gowland born C. 1868 aged 3 bn. Darlington and Thomas W. Gowland aged 9months bn. Hartlepool. I did not find the elder Thomas Gowland in this workhouse and as Hannah is shown married he must have been around somewhere. I found in the 1861 census ref. RG9 piece3679 folio55 page51 Thomas Gowland aged21, born C1840 at Darlington living Darlington St. John's parish. occ. House Carpenter, with parents Ann aged 61 father Thomas aged 57 (hard to see age but I think this is it the index on Ancestry shows him 37 but that is definitely wrong) Thomas senior is a Tailor born in Co. Durham but I can't make out the birth place, neither can I make out the birth lace of mother Ann but see the 1851 details below for these place names. The 1851 ref. HO107 piece 2382 folio217 page51 shows Thomas Gowland aged 47 Ann aged 51 Thomas Gowland(junr.) 11 living St. John's parish Darlington. Thomas senior was born Brompton Durham occ. Tailor, Ann born Dinsdale Durham, son Thomas born Darlington a scholar I can't fing this same family in the 1841 in Co. Durham. Free BMd shows a marriage for a Thomas Gowland where a Hannah Collinson appears on the same page Ref. Marriages March Qtr. 1864 district Darlington volume 10a page42. But don't rush off and order a copy of this marriage certificate, becuse the best way to find out what a mother's maiden name was, is to order a copy of the birth certificate of one of her children. FreeBMD shows. Births March Qtr. 1881 George Barker Gowland District Hartlepool volume 10a page144. Order the copy and see what it gives for Hannah's maiden name. Hope this all gives you something to go on. Regards Jenny DeAngelis. Spain. > I'm hoping someone out there can help me with some info on the Gowland > family.

HI I would love to hear from any Durham Darlings as Im trying to establish my Darling family. My John Darling married Margaret Glendenning 1791 Esh. One of the witnesses was Robert Darling. They had thomas in Esh 1792 before moving to East Herrington where they had John 1796 and my Eleanor 1799 in New Herrington. John was a countryman (ag lab) He was baptised Brancepeth 1765 and his parents were Thomas Darling and Mary. Im working on the theory that Thomas Darling and Margaret Richardson married in Brancepeth 1757 and had Robert, Nicholas, Ralph, Thomas and John in Brancepeth, moved to Lanchester where they had Joseph, then onto Esh where they had Ann 1770 in the Lowside area of Esh, Mary and finally William in the Finings area of Esh 1775. Thomas died 4 Septemebr 1783 in Finnings and Mary died 2 March 1808 in Witton Gilbert, she was buried 06/03/1808 aged 73 years- the records state she was the widow of Thomas Darling. I got the Esh stuff from a book in Sunderland Local Studies. Im thinking Thomas didnt come from Brancepeth but maybe Chester le Street baptised 1728 son of Robert Darling and Mary Harrison, question is how do I get evidence of this. The only reason Im thinking this is that IGI doesnt have anyone else to fit the bill. If anyone else is looking at Durham Darlings i would love to hear so I can eliminate or add to my family. Carol

Would some kind Lister give me the Rootsweb-L address for me to subscribe on the Counties of Denbigh in Wales and of Shropshire in England. Excuse my ignorance in not being able to find them myself. Arthur Rutherford

Dave. Unfortunately I cannot give you data about your George Barker Gowland but I just might help with the previous generation. I have John Makepeace b 1862 Elizabeth b 1864. And their father Michael Gowland b 1835 This branch of the family originated from Wear Lodge a platelayers cottage close to Stanhope in Weardale. I will be delighted to help if there is a possibility of a connection. Mike.

The Assize Courts date from the 14th. Century. They originally reviewed certain property disputes but the justices' powers were gradually extended to criminal cases and the assizes became the principal English criminal courts until they were replaced by the Crown Courts in 1971. Go to http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/catalogue/search.asp?j=1 and put Assize Rolls in the search box to see what the National Archives hold. Regards Stan Mapstone
