Hi
Well its not as it seems, yes you are right Charles married twice and both was named Jane.
1871 Charles is the son of
John Elgey 58
Ruth Elgey 53
Charles Elgey 25
George Elgey 22
Elizabeth Elgey 19
Jame Arne Elgey 13
---------------------------------------
1881 Census
Charles Elgy 34
Jane Elgy 29
Ruth Elgy 7
Margth. Elgy 4
Elizth. Elgy 1
---------------------------------------
1891 Census
Charles Elzy 45
Jane Elzy 36
Ruth Elzy 18
Jane A Elzy 14
Elizabeth Elzy 11
Charles Elzy 7
--------------------------------------
1901 Census
Charles Elgg 54
Jane Elgg 46
Charles Elgg 17
Isabella Elgg 9
Robert Gile 49
Sarah A Arel 17
--------------------------------------
It does look like 1st wife Jane Elgy Nee Robson died in 1888 and often the men had to re marry so they had someone to look after the children.
He did re marry Jane Gill in 1890 at Durham.
Both Jane & Robert Gill was registered under Hexham which is a part of Northumberland Jane in 1854 & Richard in 1852. i feel sure these are the same Jane & Robert.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Onto the First Jane Robson
I have no hesitation to say that these are the same family
1861 Census:
Thomas Robson 50
Margaret Robson 40
Joseph Robson 14
Susanne Robson 12
Mary Robson 10
Jane Robson 8
Elizabeth Robson 6
Dorothey Robson 4
John Robson 6 Months
--------------------------------------
1871 Census:
Thomas Robson 58 - Widower
Jane Robson 18
---------------------------------------
The areas named are of the same area and i think you will find that if you got Jane Robson Birth record it would name mother as Margaret. There are quite a few death records for Margaret Robson between 1861 - 1871 so i can not help with that.
i have found 1851 Census:
Thomas Robson 44
Margaret Robson 33
Margaret Robson 12
George Robson 10
Thomas Robson 8
Joseph Robson 6
Susanna Robson 4
Mary Ann Robson 8 Mo
----------------------------------------------
I do feel this is the line you should be going down hope i have not made matter worse.
Oh by the way Mother in Law her Grandmother was Lucy Elgie, Lucy's father was Simon Elgie from Seaton Durham so if you have come across any of them please let me know.
Thanks and hoping i have guided you down the right line even if ages are sometimes out a little.
