Durham Lookup Requests / Re: George Wilkinson marriage to Alice: Haverton Hill, County Durham

Thanks!

Elizabeth married likely at 21 then ..... and William married 28 miles from where he was born.

So all I need is the original 1871 census to confirm Billinghay was transcribed correctly to the records ..... and my story goes back two generations.

Teesside was certainly a magnet with all the industry.

Thanks everyone for your time! And pointers to resources and for your advice. I had no idea it was possible to find out so much.

I'll now head for the library and then the GRO for images of the original documents.

Durham Lookup Requests / George Wilkinson marriage to Alice: Haverton Hill, County Durham

George Wilkinson was born circa 1864 in Haverton Hill and married Alice from Norwich in Norfolk. I am guessing they were married (and buried) at St John's church, Haverton Hill. With such a common surname and Alice's family moving so far to work in the industry surrounding the Tees I'd value any help! Their first child Catherine was born 3/1/1892 and Blanche 10/11/1896 at 43 New Cottages, Port Clarence (near the Transporter) and built by Bell Bros Ltd who George worked for as a locomotive fitter (mechanical) . I've looked on Durham Records online for birth/census information to find George's family to no avail. Any information would be wonderful - but especially their marriage to find Alice's maiden name. Thanks!

Thanks! I'd picked Ardtrea up from earlier in the thread. I need to learn more about the Parishes!

The Tithe Applotment books are proving a useful resource like a census to track our McIver family line in that they aren't listed in Armagh where we know they were living from Parish records in 1836. Maybe the end of the trail for us, hoping this family collaborate their book based on family memory with the paper trail and it helps track any relocation of family members.

I am researching my McIver family tree in Ireland too.

Not sure if you've found a link somewhere - but there are Tithe Applotment books for Ardtea Parish in County Tyrone on irishgenealogyhub.com as for the rest of the Parishes of what is now Northern Ireland. In 1825 the family records like mine are in the name McKeever, the phonetic spelling of the Scottish pronunciation.

All religions were required to pay tithes to the Parish.

In Ardtea there's two generations of Hugh, a Dennis, James and John McKeever all living in Grave's land townland. Plus a John McKeever in Alex Doyle's land townland and another John McKeever living in Ballygirk townland.

So you can track the names you have on that date throughout the Parishes.
