Hi,

I thought I would post a reply.

I grew up in Beadnell, my Mam still lives there, my family is from that area.

I can't off the top of my head think of a house named Roslin, but it may have changed name or the name gone completely by the time I would have came along.

I'm going to see if I can find out anything for you, can't promise anything but I'll have a go.

I now know which house in Beadnell is Roslin and it is still there.

Spoke to a family friend who's Grandparents lived there, I'm now wondering if you are related to who we know.

I feel like I'm going to burst!

Any chance of an address or photo please? It will be interesting to know who the grandparents were that you talk of. It could well be that were are indeed related to those people. All I know is, the individuals living at the house were a cousin or cousins to my dad's mother. My dad recalls his visit to Beadnell possibly late 1940s or early 1950s. His mother's maiden name was Johnson. They were a large family and spread far and wide across the county.

In anticipation of more news.

Thank you

I will upload a picture of the house as it is now.

The family I have grown up knowing doesn't recall any Johnson's living their.

His Grandparents were Forsyth and they did let the house out, but I think for summer, so I will have to ask for more info as his Grandparents had that house in the same time frame that your 2x Great Grandparents were there.

It's the house on the left. It's at the start of Harbour road, opposite the Haven beach where all the fishermans huts were.

That's great. Thank you!

The Forsyth surname doesn't worry me overly, because if my gran's cousin was a female she would have changed her surname when she got married, so as ever, more research is needed. It will be interesting to see how this pans out over time.

I am pretty sure the cousin will be a Johnson descendant. She had 10 Johnson Uncles and Aunts, and it could be any one of their kids and of course with the females, the morph to a Forsythe is easy to understand.

Thank you so much for helping  ;D

I finally cracked this nut!

My 2 x great grandfather Richard John Johnson was staying with his granddaughter Jane Forsyth nee Richardson when he died at "Roslin" Beadnell. Jane's mother was Mary Jane nee Johnson, an older sister of my great grandfather Richard Johnson. So glad to have worked that out eventually. Any offspring of Jane and subsequent generations will be cousins of mine.

Thanks for your help Julz83 :)
