Hi Patsy,

I am getting a bit confused re the early censuses and who is where  Huh

1841
I can see Nathaniel with Thomas in 1841 and the Davisons.
Where is Isabella?
1851
Nathaniel is still with the Davisons.
Isabella and Edward with grandmother.

It would be great if we could go back   Grin I suppose Edward may have died though.

Edward and Isabella are living with Elizabeth Hackworth in St.Thomas Court in Newcastle in 1841. Both down as Hackworth instead of Hall. No sign of Nathaniel before 1854, no sign of Edward after 1851, so they could be the same person.

But this could be Edwards death. Stockton district in Sep qtr 1857 on FreeBMD, Edward Pearson Hall.  Its the only Edward Hall death in Co. Durham in 1857. There is a burial of an Edward Hall, 14 July 1857, aged 27, Billingham St. Cuthbert. So the right age for being the Edward Pearson Hall, born 1830 in Newcastle.

Isabella, living in Newcastle with the older Nathaniel in 1861, has a son with her John N. Hall aged 7 born Middlesbrough. There is a birth of a John Nathaniel Hall in Stockton, Sep qtr 1853. So its possible that Edward and Isabella upped sticks together to Stockton area, in the early 1850's and only Isabella (and son) came back to Newcastle.

another thing that concerns me with the connection is that nathaniel and ann was married on 5th november 1829 so if nathaniel was born 1829 ann must have already given birth or been heavily pregnant and had nathaniel within weeks of the marriage as i can find a christening record for a son they had called edward (nathaniels fathers name) giving the date of christening as 8th september 1830,so ann would have fallen pregnant with him soon after her marriage.
....surely if nathaniel was a child of nathaniel and ann he would have been with his siblings in the census of 1841-1851

Quote from 'My Ancestor Was an Agricultural Labourer' by Ian H Waller. Published by Society of Genealogists Enterprises Ltd

In many agricultural communities it was not unusual for a woman to be pregnant at the time of marriage.  Many marriages are close to or even after the birth of a child or children but most people did actually marry at some time in their lives.  It is important to search for a marriage before, during and after child bearing

I don’t suppose this was restricted to Ag Labs!

Nathaniel could have been staying with other family members on census night (grandparents etc).  I've had it happen

Hi Alan,
that seems to put paid to my possible theory re Nathaniel.
So, my next confusion is re Nathaniel snr being a butcher. 1841 he is an Agent ; 1851 he is a Commission Agent. 1861 he is a Cow Keeper which Cuthbert has been. Even though they are related occupations, you would think it just said Butcher or is that just me  Roll Eyes

I take it you've tried variations of given and surnames?  It's amazing what some transcribers can do!

hi alan
the john n hall you refered to who was born in middlesborough is a john nathaniel hall son of thomas twizell hall and mary garbutt nee wilson i sent off for his birth cert to establish who was his parents,so isabella was his aunt and he is mentioned in  nathaniel hall snrs will as his grandson.

i was thinking along the same lines as linda also,nathaniel in his marriage cert states father a butcher and even though nathaniel snr was indeed a butcher as he did do a apprentice as a butcher ..butchers guild apprentice record 298/56/138 ,but on all the census he doesnt seem to be working as a butcher,so would this suggest nathaniel jnr didnt have any contact with his father to know what his occupation was at the time of his marriage to catherine in 1854? im totally confued  Huh and i seem to be going round in circles this past year or so in trying to figure it out

He appears to have given up butchery before 1825 (assuming that there's not more than one Nathaniel Hall on the go in Newcastle at that time).

An advertisement from the Newcastle Courant, Saturday 27 August 1825.
Entitled : Nathaniel Hall. Furnishing Iron Monger, Bigg Market, Newcastle.
Begs leave to inform his friends and the public, that he has commenced business in the above line,  in the second shop below the Turks Head Inn, and hopes, by strict attention to business, to merit a share of the public patronage and support.

Ties in with the location and trade of the Nathaniel, father of Elisabeth Hall Hackworth from 1829.

By 1830 on Edward Pearson Halls baptism he was a Victualler in the Cloth Market, which is next door to the Bigg Market, so he must have changed trades again.

Doesn't get you any closer to linking him to your Nathaniel though.

wow - that's interesting.  Cheesy

That's the trouble with me- I keep finding 'interesting' things which don't (I assume) have any connection and wonder whether to post or am I just going completely off the wall but ... here goes:

Nathaniel Hall b 1836 (Scotland) but living Newcastle in 1841 (with a Hamilton family- Robert Hamilton is a Rope Maker (as was Nathaniel Hall during his life)

The witness Thomas Doig (Doeg) is probably the one who married on same day as Nathaniel and Catherine. I wonder was he a friend or just handy.

I think I found the Doegs in 1861.

What is also puzzling is that there is a birth 1859 for a Rachel Doigh-Newcastle.

Audrey's death notices has a Rachel Doig Hall death 1899- she is 29 yrs old. There is a birth for a Rachel Doig in 1859 (out by 10 yrs) but I can't find her anyway  Sad

It was this that started me on this bit of a search and I was hoping to connect them but guess what ...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

There are lots of Doegs/Doigs etc in Scotland which is were I came in with the Nathaniel from 1841 but sadly, I don't think any of this helps  Cry
