William Atkinson Hutchinson b1853, died in Northumberland after 1911

[JamesSut]

Thanks all for the responses.

I think the birth in Chester-Le-Street R.D. is the one we've sent off for before and it turned out to be the wrong person, but I'll check when I find the details of the one we received.

Even though he may have been buried in Newburn, he may have died in Newcastle upon Tyne R.D., there are a few deaths of William Hutchinson of around the right age on FreeBMD, including:
Q1 1931:
Hutchinson  William  75  Newcastle T.  10b 277
Hutchinson  William  76  Castle W.  10b 580
Q3 1931:
Hutchinson  William  78  Newcastle T.  10b 4
Q2 1914 (If my grandmother had misremembered):
Hutchinson  William  60  Newcastle upon Tyne  10b 157

His place on birth and age on the censuses we have found him on were:
1861 - Wapping (7)
1881 - Burn Moor (27)
1891 - Burn Moor (37)
1901 - Burmoor (47)
1911 - Burn Moor (57)

Wapping is here:
https://www.old-maps.co.uk/#/Map/431065/551700
B(o)urnmoor is listed in Chester le Street R.D., but it is right on the border with Houghton-le-Spring R.D.  Wapping was set apart from B(o)urnmoor (which is not the same place as the large group of houses on a modern map).

Does anyone have access to Newburn burial records to check whether any of the Williams above were buried there?  His address in 1911 was Throckley, but he may well have moved after that.

Thanks,

James

According to genuki Newburn burial records up to 1977 are at Woodhorn and I will be there tomorrow so can look for you.  However he may have been buried in a nearby civil cemetery - I'm not so sure on their locations.

There was no William Hutchinson buried in Newburn in 1914 but I did find –

William Hutchinson, abode 32 Mayfield Avenue, Throckley. Date of burial January 8th 1931 age 76

Hope this is yours

There is a baptism of a William Atkinson on the Free to view index on Durham Records Online. 1854 Houghton le Spring, abode Wapping.

Thank you for spending time looking and finding this for us Christine, sorry it's taken a few days to reply, we've been away for half term.  That looks like him, still living in Throckley (~100m away from where he was in 1911).  As Throckley and Newburn are both in Castle Ward and the age matches, we'll order the Q1 1931 Castle Ward death certificate.

And thanks Alan for finding that record on DurhamRecordsOnline, I'd not seen that website before.  Not sure about paying for a transcription rather than an image of the record.

Interesting that the parish of the baptism was in the Houghton le Spring district.

That gives us three likely births on FreeBMD:
Births Mar 1853
Atkinson  William    Houghton le S  10a 243

Births Dec 1853
ATKINSON  William     Chester le S  10a 229

Births Jun 1854
Atkinson  William     Houghton le Sg.  10a 279

The first one is the one we ordered a long time ago and turned out to be the wrong one (the son of William Atkinson and Lucy (nee Burnle(e/a/s)) of Four Lane Ends, Hetton-le-Hole, born there 14th Jan 1853, for anyone finding this through a search).

Getting the baptism date could point to the earlier of the two remaining ones if it's early in the year, but otherwise it still could be either.

If I was a betting man I would go for Chester le St Dec 1853.

There are four Hutchinson baptisms at Houghton le Spring on DRO, parents John and Elizabeth.

John George, 1855, abode Wapping.
Robert, 1857, abode Wapping.
Ann, 1860, abode Wapping.
George, 1861, abode Littletown.

Ties in nicely with the children on your tree.

There are two possible Robert birth Reg around the right time in Chester le St, but none in Houghton le Spring.

Similar with John 1855, there is one in Chester le Street, but none in Houghton le Spring. A John George Hutchinson birth is on Durham Registrars website 1855.
