Would someone be very kind and look up the 1891 Census for me please? I'm trying to locate the following family (they married 16th July 1883 at the RO Chester-le-Street) : Thomas Dixon born:1863 Bishop Aukland. Miner. Rose Hannah born: 1863 Edmondsley. Agnes Jane Dixon born: 1884 Edmondsley. George Dixon born: 1886 Sacriston. Alice Dixon born: 1888 Boyne. Ellen Dixon born: 1890 Boyne. I've searched the Ancestry.com England 1891 Census but can't find them at all.... or else I've missed them. Thomas Dixon dies aged 34 yrs Sept qtr 1898 Durham 10a 224. Rose Hannah Dixon (nee Lawton) marries Solomon Jones June qtr 1900 Newcastle T 10b 4. Her new and enlarged family can be found in Newcastle on the 1901 Census at RG13/4777 folio109 pages36 & 37. But where are they in 1891? I do hope someone can help. Thankyou. Kind regards - Derick.

Hi I wonder if anyone can help I am looking for a CUTHBERT WESTGARTH D.O.B.1842 married to ALICE D.O.B 1845 and his family on the 1891 census I can find him on the 1881 census and he is on the 1901 census but no trace of him 1891. Thank you to anyone can help Jan.

>Jan looking for Cuthbert Westgarth on C1891. In Byker on both C1881 and C1901. Jan, I notice he was in the same street over that c20 yr span.. Alma Terrace. Although he has a good name to look you, I, using Ancestry , could not see him on C1891. On C1901 he had neighbours in Alma St, who also had good searching names... Thomas Dunwiddie and Jonathom Wolf. These two families were also nearby in Byker on C1881, but seem not to appear for C1891, then reappear for C1901. Maybe, maybe, some census pages missing from 1891... or their reproduction missed by Ancestry ( I know than many pages from Denton area C1861 are missing ! ) Michael Dixon Newcastle

Microfilmed records of the marriage registers are held at Tyne & Wear Archives, Blandford Square, Newcastle upon Tyne and County Durham Record Office, County Hall, Durham City John: While what you say is quite correct, two things might add to the enquirer's understanding of what the full situation is. First, the actual registers are in Durham County Record Office though, of course, you would not normally be able to see them, just the microfilm copies. Gateshead Public Library also has microfilm copies. The BTs are in Durham University Library, Archives and Special Collections. Second, while St Mary's was indeed the sole parish church for Gateshead in 1800 and its registers show it have been a very busy one, with many baptisms, weddings and burials as it served the growing town of Gateshead, nevertheless it has had a long and chequered history, having had no fewer than three disastrous fires. The first was in Norman days when the mob trapped the unpopular Bishop of Durham inside and succeeded in "smoking him out" to meet a rapid end when he emerged. The second was during the "Great Fire" of 1854 when the church was caught up in the general conflagration, which began on Hillgate just a few yards away down the steep slope leading to the Tyne. The church in which the 1800 wedding took place was severely damaged on that occasion and although restored later, the tower had to be entirely replaced. The last fire was in the 1970s, after the movement of population away from the town centre had caused St Mary's to be declared redundant and it was standing empty. It is thought a rough sleeper had ignited a pile of rubbish, and as a result the tower was burnt out and the rest of the building was smoke-damaged. Eventually it was restored again and for a while it became a fine art auction room. For the past few years, however, St Mary's has been a general information centre/museum, publicising Gateshead in general, and basking in the reflected glory of having the Sage Concert Hall immediately on its east side and the Tyne Bridge on its west side. Among the items on display is at least one of the Churchwardens' Books from the 18th or 19th century. No doubt local County Record Offices will have a version of that book on microfilm!

Hi All: This is my first posting to the list ( I have posted this to eng-dur-yorks tho but this seems a more active list) and would like to make a connection to fellow researches of PARKES. The following is what I have so far. Walter McGregor PARKES born abt 1857 Stockton-on-Tees married 1880 to Elizabeth Ann HALL born about 1856 Stockton and they had the following children. Sam 1881 born Stockton Edith Carrie 1885 " Nellie 1890 " Harry 1892 " On the 1901 census they are shown as living at 59 Cecil St. Stockton-on-Tees RG13/4622 Folio 43 Page 4 Walter's occupation is Engine Fitter/Staffs Stke, Sam is shown as Labourer Ironworks. Edith Carrie married into my KNIGHT line to Major Walter KNIGHT born 1885 Wolverhampton, they were married at the Registry Office Stockton in 1907. Edith's father Walter's occ. is still showing as Engineer at Iron Works and witnesses were Edith's mother Elizabeth Ann and sister Nellie. There is a marriage on FreeBMD Sept Qtr 1909 Vol 10a Page 191 for a marriage of Nellie PARKES to either John Henry CORR (CARR?) or Peter ROBSON registered Stockton. I haven't sent for this certificate as yet but hopefully someone on the list may have a connection. Thank you for taking the time to read this email and hopefully there is a connection out there.
