John Armstrong 1811-1873 married Eleanor Armstrong 1818-1893 at Haltwhistle on 16 Aug 1835.
I believe John's parents were John Armstrong and Jane ??? but who was Jane?
Look forward to any further information.

More useful would be John Armstrong's (1811-1873) stated birthplace at 1841-1871 census.
Where he later is wed in neither here nor there if searching for his antecedents

1851 gives place of birth as Greenhead, Northumberland
Deleted as I am looking at wrong couple who are in Haltwhistle in 1851 :-\

Just for the record, this is a Shute Barrington era baptism, so contains additional information.
Thomas was native of The Horse Close, Township of Featherstone.
Mary's father, Luke Wanlass, was a miner, native of Alston Moor
