Did you say Sarah Ann Lamb is with her brother Mathew in the 1911 census ? as I don't see her ? I see her there in the 1901 census ...There is a marriage for a Sarah Ann Lamb to a James Graham 1904 Newcastle Upon Tyne ....They are in the Elswick area 1911 a death for a Sarah Ann Graham birth year 1879 died Dec 1928 age 49 Newcastle Upon Tyne ...Maybe worth checking out

Hi

I was wrong with the 1911 census.

I think you could be right with the Graham connection

Thanks

Hi again

It looks like you have helped me solve the initial query.

I now need to find the death of James Graham (born c.1878 Gateshead, but lived in Newcastle) - the husband of Sarah Ann Graham - maiden name Lamb.

Also, Sarah's sister-in-law was Ellen Lamb (maiden name Holmes).

She was born in Newcastle in 1879 and married Matthew Ridley Lamb in 1897. Matthew died in 1916 and Ellen (by then living in Seghill, Tynemouth district) re-married to a William H Green in 1921.

I can't find a death for Ellen that fits her birth year.

My wife's grandmother can remember her as she was her late husbands grandmother.

They used to visit her when they were going out together so that would be mid 1940's.

She says she was buried in the local Catholic church in Annitsford - but I can't find a death to search for a year.

Can anybody find the deaths of James Graham  (last seen in 1911) and Ellen Green (Lamb / Holmes).

Also any record of William H Green.

Thanks

Darin.

According to a few tree's William H Green was born 1882 Seghill Northumberland the nearest death I can see is William H Green b 1881 death date Sept 1961 Northumberland South  age 80

Hi Rosie

That's brilliant.

Do any of those trees mention a first wife or children?

and do they mention Ellen as a wife

Thanks

Darin.

Afraid not Darin no mention at all of any wife or family
