Have checked the census and I am pretty sure it is Floranna. It also ties in with the Floranna Symington on the marriage certificate I think from this entry in 1891.

RG12/4236/147/14
Blake Town Seghill

William Symington head age 37 coal miner born Seghill
Floranna wife age 32 born Seghill
Mary A dau age 7 born Seghill.

Although looking at the census entry I am not sure about Florannas birthplace, but the index says Seghill.

Checking 1881 Floranna is still there as born in Seghill, Symington is spelled with 2 Ms. They are living at Post Office Buildings Seghill

Well, this is puzzling.
Have just found this marriage here:
http://www.ndfhs.fsnet.co.uk/RegIndex.html

Year Surname Forename Initials Church 
1878 SYMINGTON William  St John the Baptist 
1878 RICHARDSON Floranna  St John the Baptist

So I suppose part of my theory was right... I just didn't find the correct family in 1871. Unless Mary was a widow when she married Thomas? But you would have told us, Maggie, wouldn't you?

Just noticed that in 1891, Floranna and William Symington are living just next door to the John and Sarah found above.

Well spotted Tanja I missed it Roll Eyes
I think that is a good pointer that your 1871 entry was correct. This was the only Floranna Symington I have been able to find and the marriage entry shows she was a Richardson before her marriage.
I don't see what more we can do at this point in time as I still haven't been able to find the 1901 entry for Mary and Thomas Heslop to check on her birthdate and birthplace. Huh

Nessie, I missed it too the first ca. 5 times Grin that I viewed the image.   

Unfortunately, I can't trace daughter Mary Gillespie or grandson William on later census returns...
This Mary would be about 5 years out... perhaps a little much, huh?

Well, Maggie, I think we need your help!

Hi Tati

Many thanks for all that you have done for me.  The Florence Heslop that is lodging with the Knox famiy is not my Florence as she was not a school teacher.  According to Thomasand Marys marriage cert.  Mary was 28 yrs old when she got married in MARCH 1882.  The address that she lived at was Pudding Chase (or Chare) Newcastle.  I also said that I was unable to find them on the 1901 census.

Yes, that's what I had understood at first but then you say somewhere you have a printout of Thomas and Mary in 1901. This is the part I obviously misunderstood.

www.ancestry.co.uk allows you to search the 1881 census by address. Unfortunately, no Richardson's or Heslop's at Pudding Chare in Newcastle.

1891 or 1901 don't have a single person born Agshill. The Flor*'s born Earsdon all have different parents. No Flo* Heslop born ca. 1887. No matching Mary Heslop b. ca. 1854. 

Sorry, I think I have run out of ideas.
