The Nathaniel Hall aged 5 in 1841 is living in Thompson Street, Byker. A couple of streets away from Byker Ropery, where the target Nathaniel Hall was living working from 1854 onwards. Still can't see him in 1851 either though.

thanks to everyone trying to help me with this one im totally at a loss with it. thankyou for that piece alan at least that explains why he was no longer working as a butcher.
i also saw the census for the nathaniel hall from scotland but i didnt really consider that as a option.i no longer have a subscription to the census (moneys to tight at moment) so i cant go over all the census again right now...i remember seeing a entry i believe was 1841 census of a nathaniel hall in the london area and i wondered if that could have been my nathaniel but as normal it didnt really answer me as all it said was he was born outside the county.and of course now i cant get access to have another look at it..
many thanks again patsy

Hi Audrey,
yes that's the one and I looked at them in later censuses- they have some Foster children with them if I remember rightly.
As I said, they may have been friends and therefore Thomas was a witness but on the other hand, they could just be present in the Registry Office or church and Thomas could have volunteered  Undecided
Perhaps one to be put aside until something more substantial turns up  Huh
It was that Rachel Doig Hall that got me- just below Nathaniel in the list.

Does Nathaniel's address on marriage certificate help at all?

Hi Patsy,
don't think the London one is him. He is with Fanny aged 70 yrs and Mary aged 7 yrs.
1851 has one born Surrey 1825 which I would imagine is him.

From the Newcastle Courant, Friday 1 Sept 1854, Marriages Section.

At All Saints Church on the 26th ult. Mr Nathaniel Hall, rope maker, to Catherine, daughter of Mr John Turnbull. Same day, Mr Thomas Doeg, waterman, to Mrs Elizabeth Dixon. All of Byker.

Nathaniel must have been working at the Byker rope works in 1854. He was living at a street called Byker Fields Ropery in 1861 and working as a rope maker. The Nathaniel Hall in 1841 was living only 2 streets away, with a household member working there. I know he's a bit young and it says he's born Scotland (as are most of the household, so it could be a mistake). But given the reasonably uncommon name and very close location, he must be a good candidate.

1841 census, Thompson St., Byker, All Saints Parish,
Robert Hamilton, 70, Joiner, b. Scotland,
Alice Hamilton, 60, b. Scotland,
Robert Hamilton, 25, Journeyman Rope Maker, b. Northumberland,
Mary Hamilton, 30, b. Scotland,
Alice Hamilton, 5, b. Scotland,
Alice Bows, 5, b. Scotland,
Nathaniel Hall, 5, b. Scotland.

Alan.

hi alan

that would explain many questions about his occupation in becoming a rope maker..and ive seen before where it was written down in correctly on census forms,i guess the next thing to ask though is if it is my nathaniel who are the people he is living with at such a young age? i know at this point his mother would be dead. i will have to look at my tree and see if any aunts etc have married into a hamilton family..do you know if this nathaniel with the hamiltons is in the 1851 census? as i havent any access at the moment..many thanks patsy

Can't see them in 1851, but there is a baptism that may be significant.

7 June 1829, St.Nicholas Parish Newcastle, Nathaniel Hamilton, son of Nathaniel and Margaret, Abode - Westgate Street, Quality, trade or profession - Joiner.

Its possible that this Nathaniel was an illegitimate son of Nathaniel Hall, with Margaret fathers trade recorded under Quality. The elder Robert Hamilton in 1841 census was a Joiner. Needs a lot more checking, but its a possibility.

 Shocked Shocked Shocked and I was just off to bed!

Not sure what you mean by 'Quality' and I do agree that we have to be cautious but it does happen  Wink

Just looked back though and it was Mary not Margaret Hamilton  Undecided

Earlier on I was looking at a Nathaniel Laing (who turns up in a later census  Sad) and trying to find a connection. I couldn't find them in 1841. I looked the parents up in Family Search and found a 'possible' marriage (but it has no relevance now) ------ the wife was Mary Doeg  Shocked
Would you believe it? I have never heard of that surname and am now falling over Doeg folk on here  Grin

There is a Mary, presumably a daughter, living with the Hamiltons in 1841, but looking at their child trail on the IGI they had about a dozen kids in Northumberland, so she is not necessarily the only potential mother of Nathaniel in 1841 census. I can't see a Margaret though, possibly born in Scotland like Mary.

I Know its just a possibility, but Nathaniel is not such a common name, and this is a Nathaniel son of Nathaniel, with a Hamilton connection, born at the right time in the right place (on the census he always gives his birth place as Newcastle, not Newcastle All Saints (ie Byker) that the rest of his family get.

Quality, Trade or Profession is just one of the columns on the baptism record. Usually the fathers trade is put down, unless its a posh family. I'm just going one further and wondering if in the case of an illegitimate birth if the mothers fathers trade would be put down?

Its a long shot, but its a possibility.

Hi Alan,
yes I am sure I have seen cases on rootschat where a family trade has been given - there are also cases where the 'father' is mother's father's name or a complete fabrication.

I was just thinking again re the 'butcher' bit!
If Nathaniel snr is the father and we are looking at the same person for everything then he was very busy in 1829!

Elizabeth Hall Hackworth May 1829
Nathaniel June 1829  Huh
Marriage 5th November 1829

On Elizabeth's baptism details he is an Iron monger.
What was he at his own marriage/ Do we know?

If he was illegitimate, that would account for his not being in the will. Did Isabella every marry - if not - did she leave a will?

We will see what tomorrow brings  Wink
