Hello to everyone.
I wonder if anyone can help with a query I have? My Great Grandad, William Milne was listed on the 1911 census living in Gosforth in Newcastle upon Tyne with his family.
William Milne, 38, cartman general, born Stonehaven, Cumberland. Joan Milne, 32, born Hebburn, Durham James, 8 (and eleven twelfths, very precise !) born Hebburn, Durham William, 5 (and seven twelfths) born Gosforth, Northumberland Ella Robina, 3, born Gosforth, Northumberland
The `Cumberland` is written in a different handwriting so I was wondering if whoever has added this made a mistake in writing it? Any help would be great. Tracey

Hi and thanks for the help.
I have just started looking into my Dad`s side of the family so am starting from the very begining !!
I have also found in the 1891 census:-
John Robbie, 24, married, born Scotland Margaret Robbie, 21,wife, born Scotland Jane Milne, (age unreadable) mother in law, widow, born Scotland William Milne, 17, single, born Scotland
So maybe that is the family. More digging and delving needed I think !!
Thanks again Kindest regards Tracey

Hi again everyone 
I think I have been looking at the wrong family. This is definitely correct:-
William Milne, 38, cartman general, born Stonehaven, Cumberland. Joan Milne, 32, born Hebburn, Durham James, 8 (and eleven twelfths, very precise !) born Hebburn, Durham William, 5 (and seven twelfths) born Gosforth, Northumberland Ella Robina, 3, born Gosforth, Northumberland
I have just got the MC for William and Joan. When William and Joan were married in 1901, his father is William Milne (deceased) a farmer.
I have found two possible births in 1873 where the fathers are William Milne, and are listed as farmers:-
William Milne born 25/4/1873 at Windford, Cookney. Mother Isabella Stott William Milne born 27/10/1873 at South Altons, Nigg. Mother Mary Elmslie
Any help, hints or pointers in the right direction gratefully received.  Tracey

Hi Tracey
A few questions. What date was William's marriage in 1901? What was his address at time of marriage - and his occupation ? What was Joan's maiden name and her father's name - and her address and occupation ? What were the names of the witnesses ?
Have you seen William's death certificate - and if so what what details were given for his parents names or occupations ?
Susan.

Hi Susan, 
William married on 27/6/1901 at the Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, Jarrow, Co Durham His address at time of marriage was 6 Swindon Street, Hebburn, Co Durham His occupation was cartman His father was William Milne, a farmer (deceased at time of marriage) Joan`s maiden name was Robertson Her Father`s name was Alexander Robertson , a ship plater(deceased at time of marriage) Her address was 9 St Andrews Street, Hebburn, Co Durham No occupation for Joan (but in the 1901 census, they were both living at Swindon St, William was a boarder and Joan a domestic housekeeper) The witnesses were James Robertson and Ann Beaton James Robertson was Joan`s brother and he married Ann Beaton in 1906 (South Shields, Q3, 10a 1472) I don`t have William`s death cert. I assume he died in the NE of England. Do you think it would help?
Regards Tracey

Hello to Ev as well, I seem to have missed your last message when I answered Susan 
what you have so far born stonehaven scotland c1873 , father william(died before 1901) who was a farmer that 1881 census seems to fit very well proving it might not be easy  looks like isabella milne(nee stott) died 1893 cookney KCD born c1846 if the father william died 1896 it might be worth looking at his death cert. to see who signed it off Would William Seniors` death cert be on SP? I`ve only just started working with it, and don`t exactly know how it works. Kindest regards Tracey
