Hi I wonder if anyone can help me I have a JAMES WESTGARTH D.O.B ABT 1854 born in Chelsea Middlesex On the 1861 and 1871 census he is in Northumberland with his parents. On the 1881 census he is on a vessel named BHUBILLY S S it says on the census that he is married but I cannot find any record of his marriage or who he married if anyone could help me with any information I would be very grateful. Also no record of him on the 1891 or 1901 census again any help would be very useful. Thank you Jan

There is the marriage of a James WESTGARTH in Newcastle in the September Quarter of 1877 to Janet McDougall. The marriage took place at Jesmond Clayton Memorial. However there seem to be 2 James Westgarth's of the same age [possibly the same person enumerated twice???] - one on board the Blue Billy vessel out of Berwick and the other at home with his wife and child. If you know his parents, then the marriage certificate will confirm the name and occupation of his father.
