Hello All
I wonder if some one can throw some light on a possible birthplace
I have a Relative born 1840 ish whose Birth and Baptism I cant find, his name is John Robson, on the 1851 Census for Sunderland as Follows
John Robson age 11 Born Sunderland
Margaret age 10 Born Sunderland
Armstrong age 8 born Hetton-Le- Hole
I dont have John's Details but I have the birth Reg's of Margaret and Armstrong
this what I find odd, on Margaret's birth cert it say's born in Hetton-Le- Hole 11th Oct 1841, Armstrongs birth cert is Sept 1843 also at Hetton.
why Have the parents said that Margaret was born in Sunderland when the birth cert says Hetton, and yet they have given the correct birthplace on Armstrong.
Can I assume that John and Margaret were both born in Hetton, as this is vital to my search for John.
Hope someone can help.
Regards
Allan Robson

Hello
Thanks for your e-mail
yes John Robson and Eleanor Urwin were the parent's I am sure the father John was working away in 1841 as he fathered a Daughter Margaret in Ovt 1841.
1851 Census
Sundrland
John Robson age 46 born Corbridge
Eleanor age 41 born Byker
John age 11 born Sunderland
Margaret age 10 born Sunderland
Armstrong age 8 born Hetton
all the other children before John had left home
the family say Margaret was born in Sunderland on the 1851 census her birth cert say Hetton and yet Armstrongs correct birthplace is given.
Regards
Allan

Hello Andrea
To find the birth is important as it could be he was adopted into the family
and my family tree would be useless, and also I wonder if there is a reason why he is not Registered or Baptised, the church in Hetton is 50 yards away from where they lived which was St Nicholas Hetton his other siblings are baptised there so why wasn't he, its very strange.
I have had the births check in Durham and Northumberland and if he is registered either an Registration error has ocurred or something else.
Regards
Allan

Hello Andrea
This is my next task checking the Christian names I think John was born Mar 1849 to Sept 1840. 2 of his brothers were baptised in Newcastle his 2 sister's were baptised in Norton Durham theses were pre 1837, there may have been a child between Douglas born 1835 and John 1840 but I have not come across him.
Regards
Allan
