Title: John Robson and Elizabeth Pears
Post by: davidft on Friday 12 October 18 19:24 BST (UK)
John Robson and Elizabeth Pears married on 22 July 1810 at Allendale, Northumberland. They had at least four children, Thomas, Elizabeth, John and Mary.

John was born c1785 and died September 1824 aged 39. He was a lead ore miner. Elizabeth was born 1782.

1.   Does anyone know what happened to Elizabeth after John’s death e.g. possible remarriage and death.
2.   Does anyone have a proven line of descent from this couple ?

Thank you

Thank you.

Yes that is the family but I did not have Esther for some reason so I will investigate that (Esther was also the name of Elizabeth's mother).

I am not sure of the 1850 death for Elizabeth I have looked at it a few times in the past and drawn a blank, I will try again but she did not leave a will as far as I can see so it is not proving easy.

The Thomas Stokoe marriage to an Elizabeth Robson is a good shout and I shall investigate that too.

Are you still looking for this, David ?

Esther Pears married Matthew Robson in Allendale on 16 Dec 1815.
Children - Thomas (bp.1816), Matthew (bp.1822), Joseph (bp.1822), Henry (bp.1822) and Emmerson (bp.1824).

Presumably John and Matthew Robson were related.
Emmerson / Emerson seems to have been a popular name in the Allendale area.

After Matthew's death she married John Brown (1792–1861) in Blanchland on 14 May 1831.
But had no more children.
She had died by 1851.

Thank you. Yes I am still looking.

I have seen this couple (Esther and Matthew) before but can't recall what the answer is. I am going away tomorrow but will go over it again next week when I get back.

Thank you for posting as it prompts me to loo at it again.
