Hazel Unfortunately no further details. I was informed by a relative that her father's name was Thomas. Naming conventions (!?) of her children might suggest Margaret or Jane Apart from that I have nothing further to go except that on the 1871 census she is given as age 28, 1881 38, 1891 48, 1901 47 and 1911 68 and always born Newcastle Cheers Mike -----Original Message----- From: northumbria-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:northumbria-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of WHRutherford@aol.com Sent: 11 November 2009 11:50 To: northumbria@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [NMB] Collins in Newcastle In a message dated 11/11/2009 10:45:54 GMT Standard Time, michael.fairless@eds.com writes: am looking for an Eleanor/Ellen Collins born about 1843 on the 1851 and 1861 Census. Location is probably the Byker area of Newcastle. Her father was Thomas Collins and location of him and the rest of the family would be a great help Hi Mike, Do you know her father's occupation and /or names of his wife/her siblings?
