Northumberland / Swans of Northumberland
« on: Wednesday 30 October 13 21:57 GMT (UK) »
I have recently confirmed from research at the Northumberland archives that my ggggrandmother was Ann Swan, born Horton by Blyth on 06 July 1803. her husband was William Young. They had at least four children Euphemia, my gggrandmother( born Detchant, christened Belford March 1824), Ann (1830, Netherwitton), Mary (1828, Hartburn) and Jane (1839, Netherwitton)
Ann (1803) I believe had a sister, Barbara. Were there any other siblings?
Ann(1803)'s parents were Robert Swan(n) and Isabella Hindmarsh who married 07 AUG 1802 at Horton.
Robert Swan's parents were Robert Swan(born Horton by Blyth) and Dorothy Gilhespey (I have seen this misinterpreted as Githespey) who married at Cramlington 03 NOV 1772.
Does anybody have any sound information on this family? Does anyone know of any linkage between this Swan family and the Darlings, most notably Grace Darling, of Bamburgh, Alnwick etc
