Lumber-Jack,
Some info for you from Bamburgh Parish Registers...
Thomas Cook, born 24 July 1807, baptised 13 Sep 1807, 4th son, 5th child of Thomas Cook, husbandman, n.o.*Lowick in the Chapelry of Lowick, bhw** Margaret Walbottle, n o.* Lyam in the p.o.*** Chatton.
John Cook b.5 Nov 1808, bapt 20 Nov 1808, 5th son, 6th child of ......... ditto......
Mary Ann Cook b.31 May 1811, bapt 23 Jun 1811, daughter of Thomas Cook of GLORORUM, schoolmaster, n.o. Lowick, bhw Margaret Harbottle, n.o. Lyam in the p.o. Chatton.
*= native of. **= by his wife. ***= parish of.
Is seems obvious that James and Joseph Cook were born in/at Holling Hall, Wylam. The family were at Holling Hall on Census 1851, in the Wylam area.
And you lay the mispelling of Euphemia's name at the door of Census enumerator. But it is interesting to note that both the enumerator at Holling Hall on C1851, and the enumerator at Cullercoats , on C1861, at the other side of the county and 10 years later, spell her name UPHEMIA. Maybe she herself was the source of this spelling of her name. Maybe that was the then correct way, and the later introduction of a front "E" was a mistake or a fashion !

Found this reference to Halliwll in parish of Chollerton
we come to the Halliwell Burn and the Halliwell itself, a chalybeate spring, close [106] by the margin of the stream in an open and undulating portion of Gunnarton Fell.
Or it could be an odd spelling of Holywell, in Earsdon parish

If you want to see Holywell on a map go to http://www.multimap.com/ Select "Great Britain & NI" for the country and "Seaton Delaval " for the place and you should get a map at 1:100,000 that has Monkseaton, Holywell, and Hartlet etc shown

I think the Charlton Cook age 4 in the 1851 census could be my gg grandfather William Powell Charlton Cook. b 25 th Dec 1846 in Newcastle upon Tyne. although the census states Wylam. I have yet to sort out the other info i found on Rootschat but WPC Cook married Jane Charlton and one of their children was named Euphemia so hence the name connection with Euphens. Do you think that this is connected?

Hi Lumberjack, I grew up in Bates Cottages which was part of Holywell and it was usually pronounced by the locals as Halliwell, it is on the A192 between Seaton Delaval and Earsdon. Whitley Bay, and is now in North Tyneside but formerly Northumberland. regards Malcolm
