« on: Monday 29 August 11 10:48 BST (UK)  »
Could someone kindly look up Mary (Elizabeth) Metcalf  age 1 living in the Bishop Wearmouth area of Sunderland. Other household members should be John Metcalf (father) Mary Metcalf (mother) and sister Margaret (Ann) Metcalf.

I'm particularly interested in her fathers age, his occupation & whether there are any other household members.

Thanks very much in advance.

Northumberland / Greyhound Inn Morpeth
« on: Sunday 12 December 10 12:43 GMT (UK)  »
Hi just wondered if anyone out there could help me with the location of the Greyhound Inn Morpeth. I know it was on Newgate Street somewhere but would like to find out roughly where it was and if the building is still standing. It seems a past relative of mine was landlord at the Greyhound in the late 1800's. The only mention I can find of the Greyhound Inn on the internet is concerning the founding of Morpeth Harriers running club in 1947 at the pub.

Anyone got any ideas to it's location?

Thanks

Durham Lookup Requests / 1901 Census - Kavanagh
« on: Friday 12 November 10 18:50 GMT (UK)  »
Could someone please look up a William & Ann Kavanagh on the 1901 census. William was born in Ireland abt 1847, Ann born in Durham abt 1854.

In 1881 they were living in the Lanchester area of Durham, where William was a coal miner. At that time they had one daughter Margaret living with them.

I'm particularly interested in any other children they might have had between 1881 and 1901.

Thank you

Durham Completed Look up Requests / *Completed* 1901 census Sunderland
« on: Tuesday 07 September 10 12:32 BST (UK)  »
Could someone please look up a John Metcalf living in Sunderland in 1901. His daughters marriage cert issued in 1907 has place of residence as 48 Wellington Lane, Deptford, Sunderland so maybe he was living there in 1901?

I'm particularly interested in who John Metcalf was living with at the time as it seems his children were living with their grandparents and I can find no record of his wife at that time. I'm not sure of his birth date but he would be in his mid/late 30's and occupation was more than likely something to do with the shipyards.

Sorry it's not much to go on, but my hubby's great grandparents/ grandparents are one big mystery within the family.

Thanks

Northumberland Lookup Requests / 1891 Census lookup Metcalf
« on: Wednesday 03 March 10 14:57 GMT (UK)  »
Could someone please look up a Margaret Metcalf born about 1883 living in Sunderland, there's possibly a sister named Mary born about 1889 and another possibility is that their fathers name is John Metcalf.  A lot of possibilities I know, but my husband's side of the family is proving rather awkward to find. :-\

Thanks

Northumberland Lookup Requests / 1901 census lookup request
« on: Wednesday 17 February 10 18:35 GMT (UK)  »
Given up on my family tree & started on my hubbies who unfortunately due to his mother dying when you was very young knows nothing of his mothers family. I have managed to trace her birth, the marriage of her parents plus her fathers birth. Could someone please look up where her father was living in 1901 and other members of his family. The only details I have on him are (thank god he had a not so common first name) as follows:

Victor Graham born 1898 Tynemouth, as he was also married in Tynemouth I presume he should be on a 1901 census for somewhere in that area.

Thanks immensley Jo

Northumberland Lookup Requests / 1901 census lookup request
« on: Sunday 14 February 10 18:21 GMT (UK)  »
Could someone please look up a Isabella Carr Hennessey possibly living in the Ashington area in 1901. Her birth registration is dated 1894 so possibly born 1893/94. I'm particularly interested in other family members to find out whether this Isabella is part of my family tree. I've came across 2 Isabella's born in 1894 one of which is definitely part of my family ( but which one?) Carr is the maiden name of my G.G.Grandmother which has been used numerous times as a middle name for children of the family, so this could be the one I'm looking for. Parents (if I'm right) will be John W & Annie Hennessey.


Thanks in advance
