birth of Eliza Jane Tuck abt 1883 possibly Tanfield / Lanchester
« on: Wednesday 01 October 14 21:04 BST (UK) »
Hello. Is anyone willing to help me find the birth of my Great Grandmother Eliza Jane Tuck abt 1883 Durham pleeeese? So far the information I have is:
Her marriage to Thomas Salkeld 1905 reg Chester-le-St, Durham, Vol 10 pg 648 first quarter. This is off Ancestry but I haven’t got the record copy.
I have a birth that MIGHT be her but it’s as Took not Tuck. Could this spelling be a mistake? I can’t find any church transcripts for the period to see.
Eliza Jane Took registered Dec qtr 1883 Lanchester RD Durham ref 10 292

Then I have a possible 1901 census in Urpeth:
Eliza J Tuck 17 servant b Tanfield, Durham
RG13/4700 /63 p 16

The 1911 census is her BUT on the original census it doesn’t say where she was born!
7 Springfield Terrace Felling
Eliza Jane Salkeld age 27 wife   Heworth SD
Piece:   30392

I know she remarried in 1919 to a Thomas Mennom after my g grandfather died in 1916 at the Somme. I have no death for her.
So, it’s a puzzle! Can anyone help find her birth and parentage please?  :)

Thanks Suz, that looks promising! If it was it opens up loads of new avenues for me. Norfolk would be a surprise but there must be mining links.  ;D

I can find baptisms of older children in Whickham but not younger ones
I think the birth reg is most probably the one you found as |Took

Thank you. I have found the 1881 and 1901 censuses with this Tuck family, though one was spelt Took -and Tack on Ancestry's transcription for the 1891 that you found. Eliza obviously wasn't born for the 1881, and wasn't with her siblings on the 1901 (if they are her family) but that's ok as that's when I have her as a servant in the area. Getting excited!  ;D

Hempnall is correct. Postal town Norwich. I think William Tuck the father died Chester-le-Street area Dec Qtr 1908.

1871 they are under LOOK!;
William Look    28, Ag Lab
Charlotte Look    24
William H Look    3, born Sheffield
Walter Look    1

Now as far as I know there is no Sheffield in Norfolk.
I had looked for a Marriage for William to a Charlotte 18651869ish on FreeBMD in Norfolk with no luck.

There is this one though;
Marriage Reg, Sept 1866, Sheffield, 9c 499
William TUCK/Charlotte NELSON on same page

Then there is this;
Name:    Charlotte Nelson
Gender:    Female
Baptism Date:    8 Aug 1847
Baptism Place:    Swaffham, Norfolk, England
Father:    Robert Nelson
Mother:    L... Dickerson
FHL Film Number:    1471577
Reference ID:    item 3 p 10

1851 Census has a ROBERT Nelson born c 1811 Swafham/Wife Sophia and several Children including a CHARLOTTE age 3 (1848) born Swafham


FreeREG has her Baptism, 8 Aug 1847, St Peter/St Paul, Swaffham, to ROBERT/SOPHIA nee Dickerson.

1861 we have;
Ann Dickerson    86
Rebecca Dickerson 47
Charlotte Nelson 16, Grand/Daughter

Of course you would need a Birth Cert of one of William/Charlotte Tucks Children to confirm her maiden name but looks ok to me :)

EDIT;
Marriage of Robert NELSON to Sophia DICKENSON, 28 Jun 1829, Swaffham is on FreeREG

Lots of info there Trish - thank you. 'Look' is unreal!  :o I need to get into it all when my granddaughter goes home. I have ordered the Took /Tuck birth cert and her marriage cert from the GRO to see if that Took was a spelling mistake, which in my heart I think it is. My whole tree has been unreal to research in the last 6 months with spelling variations. I've found, with help on here, 3 of the Salkeld g grandfathers, all Thomas, and their spellings were Sarkeld, Sawkill and Salkelo!!! Still hunting the 1818 one. You'd think Tuck would be simple!!!!!  ::) This site is so helpful so thanks everyone :-*
