Thanks to all who kindly replied to my query re John REVELL. Ben ==================================================== http://homepage.ntlworld.com/ben.revell1/Revell.html

Hi Bev, strangely enough I checked my spreadsheet for the 1871 census and I had the entry you were interested in. I had noted all the ROSS entries when I went through the 1871 a few years ago. The family were living at 18 North Quay East, Monkwearmouth Ecclesiastical District: St Peters Piece RG10/5025 Unfortunately this search was undertaken in the early days of my research, so I don't have the folio and page number details. Name, Relationship to Head, Married or single, age, occupation, place of birth Alexander ROSS Head Mar 34 Engine Driver Scotland Anne ROSS Wife Mar 31 monkwearmouth Alexander (James) ROSS Son 6 Sunderland George Andrew ROSS Son 4 monkwearmouth Thomas ROSS Son 1 Sunderland Matthew Liddle ROSS monkwearmouth (don't have his age for some reason) I still have a feeling our ROSS interests may end up linked somewhere along the line. bfn Diane R Sunderland UK Don & Bev Froom <okfrooms@shaw.ca> wrote: Hello members! The marriage certificate of my grand parents in 1887 give the address of #3 Dock Street Monkwearmouth for George Andrew ROSS and 12 Bedes Terrace Sunderland for his wife Amy Frances HADLEY I looked at the web sight for street addresses but have not located either address. Can anyone tell me the area these two addresses might have been? Also does anyone have access to the 1871 census which should show an George Andrew ROSS age 4, son of Alexander James, and Anne ROSS.

Must thank everyone who responded to my last request. I now have the information from the 1871 Census which gives the age of my Great Grandfather and also that he was born in Scotland. I am now looking for the area of # 26 east St. Sunderland which is the address given on the 1901 census for my grandfather living with my mother age 6 and her two siblings James and Amy. I would really appreciate being able to pin point the whereabouts of this address on the map. Thanks again everyone. Bev Froom

Hi Elizabeth & list, Unfortunately, my SCOTT (maternal) line doesn't appear to be the same as yours. That's one of the problems with having a popular surname. The only info. I have is from a marr. cert. of my maternal gt.g/parents, William SCOTT (age 21) who was listed as a stoker, & his father who was also shown as William SCOTT an engineer. His bride was a Rachael SCOTT (age 18) & her father was also shown as William SCOTT a labourer. Both are shown as residing in Low Quay (no street shown). Their witness's are shown as Alice SCOTT & George HUGALL (that's what it looks like). The cert. shows they were married on 1881-Dec-26 in the Parish Church (which I was told was/is Holy Trinity) Sunderland It's not much, but, hopefully someone on the list can assist us in filling in some missing blanks.

Stan, I was interested to read about this street.[St Bede's Terrace I knew-went to a dentist there for what is now called orthodontic treatment!] My maternal Grandmother used to have women's meetings for the local women at Dock Street Methodist Church. I have a photo of her outside the church with some of the women.Betty.

Hi Bev Dock street was two streets away from Roker Avenue (once known as Broad Street ) heading toward the river It went from Brandling Street south and went up to Church Street All that remains today of Dock Street is a pub called the Albion Cannot recall a Bede Terrace Regards George

St. Bedes Terrace is in Bishopwearmouth between Burdon Road and Toward Road, but there is a Bede Street in Roker. Regards Stan Mapstone

Never ceases to amaze me how helpful everyone is. Almost feels like I am right there. Thanks so much. Bev Froom

Hello members! The marriage certificate of my grand parents in 1887 give the address of #3 Dock Street Monkwearmouth for George Andrew ROSS and 12 Bedes Terrace Sunderland for his wife Amy Frances HADLEY I looked at the web sight for street addresses but have not located either address. Can anyone tell me the area these two addresses might have been? Also does anyone have access to the 1871 census which should show an George Andrew ROSS age 4, son of Alexander James, and Anne ROSS. Thank you for your assistance. Bev Froom

Could SKS look up the 1891 Census, Sunderland please. I'm looking for John Revell, wife - Margaret or Mary Anne. I've got him in the 1881 census (aged 30), living at 46 Alfred Street, Bishopwearmouth but in the 1901 census the family is in 2 Diamond Hall Houses, Deptford, and his wife is listed as "widow". I'm trying to narrow down his death. Thanks Ben Revell ==================================================== http://homepage.ntlworld.com/ben.revell1/Revell.html

There was discussion some time ago about Ship Inns in Sunderland but at the time I didn't know which was the one my family were connected with. I now know it was in Collin Place, Southwick.Does anyone have any info. about it.??

In 1928, when Southwick was incorporated into Sunderland the pubs came under the town's Licensing Authorities. At the Brewster Sessions in 1929 the Chief Constable opposed the renewal of three Southwick licences, one of these was for the Ship Inn at 1 Collin Place. The Bench agreed that the three licences be reported for compensation, resulting in the pubs being closed down. Regards Stan Mapstone

In one of my earlier inquires I mentioned the Ship's Inn. But this was in Penshaw and I believe it is still there. My great-uncle was proprietor. His surname was Smith which is as popular a name as the Ship's Inn. Regards - Judy

Stan, I used the advanced search and I can't remember the pricise details but I think it was : Pallion survey in the title, author's surname (I can't remember who he was!), publisher (wear printers ?), and date.
