Looking for descendants of Andrew R JAMESON, born 1856 Yell, SHI, SCT. Andrew's parents moved to Sunderland, ENG about 1860-1862. Andrew's next younger brother, Thomas, was my husband's grandfather. Thomas, one of his younger brothers, James, and their mother came to the USA between 1881 and about 1886. Their father had died in the 1870s. As far as I know the rest of the family remained in England or Scotland. They were sister Mary, and brothers Andrew, Charles and William. Andrew worked as an Iron ship plater in 1901. His son, George looks to have been an iron ship riveter and son James was an apprentice plater. Andrew worked in a ship yard in Sunderland,as had his father. The family lived at 1 Alma Road in 1901. The "family story" is that Andrew had 22 children and that this family was in touch with the JAMESONs in the US until about 1930 or later. Andrew (real name Robert Andrew, but he called himself Andrew R) married a woman from Woolston named Fannie C (last name unknown) about 1880. They had at least ten children by the time of the 1901 census. They were: Andrew, George, Amelia, James, Alfred, Charles, Fanny, Hilda, Lillian and Ernest. Mother Fanny was 39 at that time, so she could have had several more children, but I don't see how she could have been the mother of 22 by the time she finished having children. Andrew must have married twice. The eldest child, Andrew hasn't been found in the 1901 census yet, but Amelia was "in training" in a facility in Winchester, St John during this census. We do hope it wasn't a Magdalene Sisters facility, but would appreciate knowing if was. We really do need some new "Cuzzins" here. I will share all the information that I have about all the family on this side of the pond. There is lots ! Thanks. Barbara Jameson marksnana@juno.com in Colorado, USA
