Can anyone find Edward??

Emma,

You don't have Edward's birth certificate, baptism, marriage cert, or his appearance on a census... How do you know he was born 1893 , South Shields ? or have I missed something? Or have you used his age on death ?

I worked it out as follows!! Perhaps Im wrong, but it all looks right to me!

On my grandfather's marriage cert it says father Edward Carrick. I knew my grandfather's date of birth and looking at the bmd his mother's maiden name was Bond. I then looked for a marriage bewteen an Edward Carrick and a lady with surname Bond and found Edward marrying an Agnes. Now we have date of death as 5/5/ 1975 for Edward whcih would fit with the dec qtr 1893 birth given his age of 75. I know the family were from south shields and are in Jarrow in 1947 and the children were born there and Edward and Agnes married there so Ive gone with that birth!!

What do you think??

Emma,

If Edward died 5/5/1975 and was aged 75 yrs at death, then his birth year is near 1900 ?

A 1893 birth would have made him 82 on a 1975 death ??

Emma,

I think Helen's info about Margaret Allinson and family including a seven yr old Edward, in Jarrow area, is worth pursuing.

I notice (from FreeBMD site) that after Edward Carrick and Agnes Bond married in 1916, they had..

James E. June Qtr 1917
Agnes M.E Mar Qtr 1920 and
Hannah June Qtr 1922 (all reg. @ South Shields)

Edward's birth cert, will sort out who, if anyone, was registered as his father !

Just an update!

I received Edward and Agnes's marriage cert this morning and where Edward's father's details should there is a line! So chances are the Edward Helen found IS mine!

The only thing in the father's name and surname box apart form the line is what looks to be a letter J, then a space then either rt or st joined up!

No idea what that means! Also there is something written outside of all the boxes that looks like 'four jwk'! Again I've no idea!

The couple were living together at 148 High Street in Jarrow, Edward down as 23 years old and Agnes 18 yrs.

Still think I need the birth cert for Edward though!

Hello Emma,

I'd love to know if you found any further details on Edward Carrick.  I have come up against a dead end with him.  He was my great grandfather.

Best wishes,

Your Edward Carrick and Agnes seem to be in Jarrow on 1939 Index. Transcription Preview only. Edward born 1893. Agnes born 1898
