Hello GeoFFE i got the information from a birth & baptism in Newburn Northld what i put in for a request and it says Thomas Slater was from Mary Port so i gathered that was Cumberland . Was there any births around 1770s, i can`t find Thomas Slater and his wife Hannah Finey`s marriage either. They might pop up at some point Gladys.
Hi GeoffE i have just been looking at some baptisms in Ponteland Northld and noticed a baptism of two of the children their father was from Mary Port so i looked on Hugh Wallis genealogy page for Ponteland but no Thomas Slater although there was a couple more Slaters just thought i would let you know. Gladys.
