Hello Gary and Patrexjax,
I have always had this feeling that perhaps they did come from Washington, I actually researched this family of Stell's and did, as you say, get back pretty far back into the 1600's. If they aren't mentioned on the fiches it seems that I will have to try neighbouring areas.
The thing that put me off was the Death Record from DRO.
For both James Stell and wife Jane Charlton:-
Burials - Gateshead District
Location: Whickham
Church: St. Mary
Religion: Anglican
James of Lowhand, died 5th of July 1802 aged 78. Buried 7th July, 1802
Jane of Lowhand, died 3rd of January aged 65. Buried 7th of January 1800
Is Ryton in the area? I have printed maps but it isn't the same as being there.
I appreciate all your help,
Denise

Gary and Patrexjax,
I have just been looking for all the notes I made of the Stell family of Washington - thank goodness I never throw anything away!
I have also got a Thomas Stell b. Washington married to Margaret Hutchinson b. Whickham to Gabriel Hutchinson and Margaret Row.. Married 25.04.1695 M000971, they had 6 children all born in Washington, P000971.
Thomas was b. 27.01.1667 in Washington to Thomas Stell and Elizabeth Coxon, Thomas had 5 siblings.
In Gateshead there was a John Stell who married Jane Johnson they also had 6 children.
I went back further with these families but couldnīt find a James anywhere!
This is why I went back to Whickham......James lived to a grand old age old age but his birth is a mystery.
Even on Durham Records Online there isnīt anything about his birth-baptism.
By the way, with my notes I hadnīt anything on Stellīs of Ryton I think I had better try there.
Denise

Hi Gary,
No, I hadn't seen this marriage at all. Where did you find it?
These could possibly be the parents of James, it is the correct
time frame in any case. Please could you let me know where
you found them?
Refards, Denise

Thanks Gary,
The link got me straight onto the page.
I see you have Murray of Cumberland.
You don't by any chance have a Mary Murray that moved down to
Chorley, Lancashire. Mary married John McHugh/McQue in 1870 in Chorley.
Her father was named Patrick Murray, he was deceased at the time of
the marriage but his profession was given as Agrigultural Labourer.
I have the Marriage Certificate.

Good morning!
Shame about the Murray Family Gary, thought I had better ask, you never know!
All of a sudden, I have found a Jane Charlton on IGI ch. 07.12.1735, Saint Nicholas, Durham.
She has 5 siblings and her parents are John Charlton and JANE.
James Stell and Jane Charlton had two sons, one Thomas and the other John.
I have also found a James Stell born in Keighley, Yorkshire. The birth year is 1818, too
early, he has father John.
I think I will stick with Thomas Stell who married Margaret Hutchinson as his parents although
there is no mention of birth/christening of a James Stell.
Have you any ideas about this?
Best wishes, Denise

I noticed that the IGI does show some Stell family being baptized in Whickham and there are also a large number in Gateshead - also close...If you have any specific look ups on baptisms before 1800 i Whickham or Ryton, let me know. In many cases, the specific area (NOT street!) that the family was living in at the time of the sacrament was recorded. This can help sort out family groups sometimes. Pat
