Completed Bell family, 1891 census, Felling Co Durham, please

[petey22]

Hi all
I am looking for the Bell Family in the 1891 Census, Felling Co. Durham. I have them in 1901 ;
RG 13/4765 F164 P12 Ryton Woodside
Robert Bell head 37 coal hewer North'd Seaton Deval
Mary Bell wife     30   ditto
Thomas son       10 Felling Durham
Margret dau        8 Felling Durham
ARMSTRONG son  6 Ryton Durham
Mary  dau             3 Ryton Durham
Alice  dau              2 Ryton Durham

I believe that Robert Bell and Mary Cole marry 1889, although not too sure of this, I have also recieved the information that Roberts father was also Robert and that Mary's father was a Thomas Cole, someone somewhere seems to have a marriage certificate  I'll have a look at Free BMD now that I think of it !
Well thats all the information I have, hope its enough.
all the best
Pete

Hi Heywood, again !
thanks for that, very interesting ! young Robert (c1890) is in the 1891 census, but not in the 1901, which is something that my Aunt picked up on when I only had the 1901 census.
Something I must ask her about, as I got the idea that she remembered him ? so probably not an infant mortality but was probably lodging somewhere ? She is 'in a land down under' so early evening there and hopfully I'll get an answer.
all the best

Hi  Pete
yes I had a quick look for a death with no results so that would be good news- always sad to see a young death.
I also had a quick look for him as a lodger etc but didn' t see him either.
best wishes

hi all
just received a copy of the marriage certificate of Robert Bell 27and Mary Cole 19, 4th may 1889, parish church, st. John. freeside ?, County of Durham.
Father of Robert also Robert, a miner,,, residence at time of marriage,,, cant quite make it out,, Wryham Nood ?   and Mary Cole, father Thomas Cole, also a miner, Crawhook.
I was kind of hoping this would get me further but there seem to be so many Robert Bells around in Durham at that time, maybe an IGI search will help, may give mothers name ?

so, from census info Robert is born 1863/4. from the marriage certificate, married in 1889, aged 27, gives a birth year of 1862.

A two year search on IGI gives 9 results, and only 2 with father Robert ;
1 Robert Bell 1-1-1860 Bilingham, Co Durham, parents ; Robert and Mary.
2 Robert Bell b3-8-1861, chr 17-11-1861, Tanfield Co. Durham, parents ; Robert and Esther.

and for the good order and the fact that there are only 2 possibilities a 5 year search,,,,, which gives one other ;

3 Robert Bell 26-3-1865 Southwick, Co Durham, parents ; Robert and Alice.

hmmmm, 3 choices ? maybe checking the districts on Genuk may help?
