Looking for Samuel & Annie (Doyle) Jones, living in Gateshead 1911 Census.
« on: Wednesday 17 June 09 12:06 UTC (UK) »
 Hi everyone,

Hope someone out there may be able to help me find descendants of my Gt Gt Uncle Samuel Jones ,born Oswestry, Shropshire in 1878 & his wife Annie (Doyle) Jones, born Ireland approx 1875.

The 1911 Census shows him living in Gateshead, with Annie and the following children:

Mary 8 & James 6, both born in Manchester.
John 4, born in Jarrow.
Fred 2, born in Gateshead.

Don't know how to trace the family after 1911.

Maybe someone out there has similar names in their Family History which could link to mine.

I have placed this post on the Durham board but no luck so far. I'm thinking that the family may have moved to the other side of the Tyne - Newcastle area, so I'm giving it a shot on this board as well.

I'd appreciate any leads.

thanks

Barbara.

P.S. link to Durham Board is:

 Barbara,

Not easy !

1) Tracking by BMDs

e.g. A child Samuel Jones ( with mother's maiden name, was registered within Gateshead RD March Qtr 1912)

Although plenty of Jones/Doyle birth registrations, no more in Co Durham or Northumberland.

Tracing death registration may at least give end of the "window"

2) Electoral Registers tracking... you will know where they lived in 1911.. so that starting point for spotting them in ERs

3) Newspapers, spotting articles , bmd etc- placing adverts yourself

Not easy !

Hi Michael,

First chance I've had to reply to you and say " Thanks" for your post.

How did you find the following entry:
e.g. A child Samuel Jones ( with mother's maiden name, was registered within Gateshead RD March Qtr 1912)?

Does the mother's maiden name show as Annie Doyle?

I'm still on a bit of a learning curve with research so bear with me.

Thanks

Hi
After 1911 the mother's maiden surname is shown the the birth register.  If you search www.freeBMD.org.uk you can put in surname and mother's surname and it brings up all the entries for that combination.  Very useful.

 Barbara,

Mother's name does not show. As Andrea writes mother's maiden Surname is revealed from FreeBMD site ( and GRO Indexes)

So you have to use a liitle bit of detective work to decide the strength of the " candidate" !

But Sam son of Sam Jones with mother's maiden surname Doyle looks a sure bet to me.
