Durham Lookup Requests / Birth Cert. 1890 Robert ORMSTON, Jarrow
« on: Friday 12 October 12 22:51 BST (UK) »
My Great-Grandfather Robert married Ada Hannah Richardson in 1912 in Newcastle and they lived together in South Shields.
Robert was born in 1890 in Jarrow/Co. Durham area. His mother was Jane Ormston but I don't know her maiden name or husband's name.
1901 census reveals this:
Reference RG13, Piece 4740, Folio 103, Page 37
7 St Peter's Square, Jarrow
Ormston, John Head M 66 Corporation Roadman b Jarrow
Ormston, Jane Wife F 65 b Jarrow
Ormston, Sarah Daughter F 34 b Jarrow
Ormston, James Son M 29 Engine Fitter b Jarrow
Ormston, Walter Son M 27 Shipyard Labourer b Jarrow
Ormston, William R GrandSon M 14 Newsagent's Errand Boy b Jarrow
Ormston, Robert Grandson M 10 b Jarrow
So I've found Robert, but still don't know whether his Father was James or Walter. I'm also now puzzled as to why Robert was living with his Father's family.
Is anybody able to unearth Robert Ormston's birth certificate so I can find out who his Father was and so I can confirm that his Mother was Jane.
Thanks!
