Hello Jan, William and family are still in Jesmond - on the Ancestry website, HARDING is transcribed Marding. It pays many times to input as little data as possible when searching censuses. I found them by typing just William, born about 1871 and living in Jesmond with spouse Elizabeth. (If that didn't work, I would have left out Jesmond in the "lived in" search box leaving only Northumberland - and so forth). Another important clue: In this instance I was helped by knowing his birth year as c1871 and then finding his death in 1939 - in Jesmond, so I knew they were still there. The index for his 1939 Will also appeared, but you likely have that. I have made the 1911 census correction on the site for future searches. By the way, it helps to type your family name in the subject line on these mailing lists! cheers, pamela -----Original Message----- From: northumbria-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:northumbria-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Janet Hasler via Sent: Wednesday, February 11, 2015 11:14 AM To: northumbria@rootsweb.com Subject: [NMB] 1911 CENSUS Hi I wonder if anyone could help me I am trying to find the 1911 census for a WILLIAM HARDING D.O.B. 1871 NORTHUMBERLAND married to ELIZABETH HARDING D.OB.1868 NORTHUMBERLAND nee MOODY They married 1897 NORTHUMBERLAND. I have found them on the 1901 census living in JESMOND NORTHUMBERLAND they have a daughter WINEFRED D.O.B.1899 born in NEWCASTLE.I have been told she died in 1904. I also believe that WILLIAM and ELIZABETH went on to have 3 more children between 1906-1911. If I can find the 1911 census it would help me confirm some of the above.

Adrian: Thank you for this note, which will no doubt encourage many to discover more of their Methodist families' past. To it I can add that the National Index of Parish Registers (NIPR) lists the earlier, pre-1837, (Wesleyan) registers as being in the PRO (now TNA), with microfilm copies in the usual places and that for that period (1812-1837) it was also included on the IGI. Hence it should now be available somewhere on the LDS site. The NIPR helpfully lists the following churches as being within that circuit at that time. In Co Durham: Ebchester and Newlands; Ebchester and Shotley Bridge; Gateshead Pipewellgate; Gateshead Fell; Gateshead Low Fell; Gateshead Low Team; Gateshead Fell, Sheriff Hill; Gateshead Fell, Wrekenton; Heworth, Bill Quay; Heworth, Carr Hill; Heworth, Felling Shore; Heworth, High Felling; Heworth, Windy Nook; Lamesley; Lanchester; Lanchester Annfield Plain; Lanchester Colliery Dykes; Lanchester Dipton; Lanchester Iveston; Lanchester Kyo; Ryton Crawcrook; Ryton Greenside; Ryton Woodside; Tanfield Burnopfield Sheephill; Tanfield Causey Row; Tanfield Shield Row and Kiphill; Tanfield Tantobie; Usworth; Whickham; Whickham Swalwell; Winlaton; Winlaton Barlow; Winlaton Blaydon In Northumberland: Ovingham Hedley; Ovingham Prudhoe. Where I have given two place-names for a church the first one is the C of E parish within which it was located and the second is the village etc where it actually was. I should also add that there were many boundary changes to this, and most, Methodist Circuits over the years. The Ryton district churches eventually became part of Newcastle West Circuit, for instance.

Good Evening and looking for help... Please forgive me if I am not in the right areas but I am trying to help a friend find her family. The only info I have is: First Name/s - Marwood (Henry) Surname Cozen/s Lived in the Somerset area. The surname may be spelt differently but this is all the info I have been given. I would really appreciate any help that anyone can offer, and I do thank you sincerely in advance. Kindest regards Margaret

Margaret This mailing list covers the counties of Northumberland and Durham and I'm afraid that Somerset is well outside this area. If you search for Somerset here http://bigfile.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/listsearch you should find an appropriate list.

The Freeman Hospital opened in 1978 so cannot be the place in question. There was the Holy Jesus Hospital which was commonly referred to as the "Freemen's Hospital", but I think that was closed long before the 1930s. Rather than speculate, why not get a copy of the death certificate which should solve the mystery? Brian -- Brian Pears (Gateshead) -- Brian Pears - Joint List Admin NORTHUMBRIA Mailing List

Can anyone tell me if there was a Masonic hospital in Newcastle in the 1930s. A relative is reputed to have been treated at and possibly died at a hospital in Newcastle run by the freemasons. I have not been able to find any definitive information about this. I keep coming up with the Freeman Hospital but can't find the history of this. Grateful for any help. Ros Poulson

I have a variation on the name, Moodie although born in Hartlepool I have traced this family back to Scotland, Sometimes it pays to try variations and cast your net wider.

Janet You say you have looked "everywhere". Well, if that's true there's nothing anyone can do to help you. :-) You really do need to be explicit - where exactly have you looked. Brian -- Brian Pears (Gateshead)

Dear Janet, In the case of a baptism/christening in the Anglican Church, the words "godparents" and "sponsors" mean the same thing. Kind regards, Brian+. I wonder if anyone could explain something to me on a baptism record for 1792 it says at the bottom the SPONSORES were. Could you tell me what sponsores means

Edith: Although not an expert on those records I would expect only the barest of information. The name, possible address and occupation of the bankrupt and possibly the amount of their debts. In a newspaper such as the Evening Chronicle, I would expect either nothing at all or else just a brief statement of the fact they had been made bankrupt. Discharges from bankruptcy would similarly be probably mentioned only as having taken place in the official records and probably not at all in the newspaper. However, I may be wrong! Somewhere around 1980 the Society of Genealogists published on microfiche two books of which the originals were in their library. They were (1) "Alphabetical List of Bankrupts 1774-1786" and (2) "Bankrupt - Directory 1820-1843". I don't know whether any similar publication continued to be produced into the 20th century (though I doubt it). If by any chance there was such a one, then a search through some library catalogues (eg the British Library) or through the British National Bibliography might, as a very long shot, produce a result. -----Original Message----- From: Edith Talbot via <northumbria@rootsweb.com> To: northumbria <northumbria@rootsweb.com> Sent: Wed, 21 Jan 2015 19:42 Subject: [NMB] NEWCASTLE COURT BANKRUPTCY RECORDS HI, records from 1924-1927 Does anyone know how much info is normally, in the court hearings both for receiving orders 1924 and closure of the bankruptcy in 1927 May there be info in the evening chronicle also Thanks for any help Edith talbot ..

Sponsors are also confirmed church members who sponsor a candidate for confirmation. I think that there are usually two, but I had just one friend to sponsor me when I was confirmed.
