Berwick on Tweed - Ralph Cuthbertson
« on: Wednesday 13 November 13 15:02 GMT (UK) »
Hello

This is my first visit so apologies for any errors.

My 3 x great grandfather Ralph CUTHBERTSON was born in Berwick upon Tweed in about 1771 - can anyone please help me find him and his parents in Parish or other records? 

I know quite a bit about his adult life - he married Ann Crewse in Dartmouth (Devon) in 1798, became a  ships surgeon in the royal navy and died of yellow fever in Antigua in 1805 - but have not been able to find his birth or baptism.

Thanks

Hello
I have just found your post on this forum.

I too have an interest in Ralph Cuthbertson 1771-1805. His great grandson John George Cuthbertson 1868-1927, married my great aunt, Alice Harriet Turner.

I am compiling the Turner history & I would be interested in comparing notes if you would like to?

Regards

Craclyn hello

Yes that's him - Beadnell is just a few miles from Berwick on Tweed where I know he was born.

Thanks for your input!

Good one keyboard86. Several possibilities for Ralph sr, but one of the most likely baptisms seems to be in 1745 in Bamburgh with father James.

Keyboard 86 & Craclyn thank you!
How do you access this info so quickly? (Trade secret?)

As stated my interest is not the Cuthbertsons per se, rather, the Turners.

Alice Harriet Turner 1875-1954 married John George Cuthbertson 1868-1927
Her father Samuel Turner 1840-1920 (train driver) was born in Hollingbourne in Kent, his father William 1799-1875 (papermaker) in Rickmansworth and his father Richard possibly also in Rickmansworth.
They are my real targets!

Thanks again

Jeremy
