Jackson/Hamilton
« on: Thursday 05 November 09 19:58 UTC (UK) »
I wonder if anyone could tell me, whilst searching for an ancestor Hugh Hamilton I found them in Cumberland, where Jane his wife was born nee Jackson.  Could anyone tell me where 'Concrete' is?  I believe this could be the name of a house or an area in Harrington Cumberland.

Hugh Hamilton Head m Male age 27 born Scotland Coal miner
Jane J Hamilton Wife M Female age 29 born Carlisle
William Hamilton son u Male age 4 born Scotland
Jane Hamilton Daur U Female age 2 born Scotland

Dwelling Concrete
Harrington Cumberland

RG11 5182/76

Hugh and Jane lived as 1881 Census  - Harrington.  In 1891 they moved back to Glasgow.

I also found out that Janet's father was John Jackson (b c1831) and his mother Jane Jackson nee (b c1831 Scotland)?  He was a powerloom tenter?  I am trying to find the maiden name of Jane Hamilton nee Jackson's mother also Jane.

Can anyone help me with these queries
Thanks Trish

The enumerator's walk ...

 ... Harrington Parks, Copperas Houses, Brickworks, Tarn Houses, Moor Houses, Lowca High and Low Houses, Concrete Houses, Low House Farm, Stamford Hill, Harrington Mill, Whinns Moor House,

Several of these places (but not Concrete Houses) can be found to the south of Harrington at http://www.old-maps.co.uk/IndexMapPage2.aspx

I had ancestors living at Concrete Houses, Seaton.  They would have been cheap housing erected by pit/works owners near to the works.

Would anyone have access to pictures of these houses built in concrete and where and to whom they were built for?  My ancestor Hugh Hamilton, his wife Jane Hamilton nee Jackson and children lived at Concrete, Harrington and Hugh worked as a miner, would anyone be able to tell me who he may have worked for?  As I am told these houses were built for certain employees.

regards Trish
