hi everyone, I'm hoping someone can help me. I am trying to trace a Richardson family from Netherwitton area of northumberland. They moved around as father was a shepherd but in 1851 census they appear in Newbiggin village, Morpeth Dist 7, HO 107 2418 (pg 35). I have a possible candidate in Ann (Green) Richardson but I can't make out the word before pauper. She is living with son William, a Cordwainer, born at Cold Park. Does anyone have any idea where this is? My Ann was born I believe around 1781 in Newcastle (although I have no proof) & William was christened in Netherwitton in 1816 while the family were living at Birkhead Moor. That would make them 70 & 35 (recorded as 75 & 30) respectively. In 1861 census Ann is recorded as being 80 which is correct. The name Richardson seems to be a common one & I want to be sure I have found the right family. Mamy thanks Linda
Linda, I had ancestors living in that area in the 1800's. It's Ritton Colt Park, near Wingates ,Birkhead Moor and Longhorsley, Northumberland.
