Hi
If anyone has access to the closing 5 years of lamesley parish records I would be grateful if I could be told whether there is a William Ramshaw born circa1797.
Ive eliminated all william Ramshaws born in co Durham but feel that a family in Lamesley could be his, I see John and Mary as mam and dad with kids Henry, Ralph, John etc- all my familys names. IGI coverage stops right where I need it.
My William was a waggonman who lived Grindon, Sherrif Hill, Ryhope, Monkwearmouth and died before 1851 census so no exact clue. Ive always felt he came from chester le street area due to occupations of other Ramshaws and this could be my last hope.

Thanks

Hi
just looking and amazed cos this ann anderson is my gggg grandmother!!!!
She married james anderson 1825 Houghton le Spring, her maiden name was Burdess. My direct link is James, i think he was the youngest born 1844. Hes on 1851 census with her.

Ive just started trying to sort out the Andersons again and think i have them sussed. I have Ann on all census retuns and have just got James death cert- he died in Houghton pit disaster 1850 - hes transcribed everywhere re the disaster as john but im hoping to get that sorted.

James dad was also called james, i believe he was born Kirk Merrington along with his brother Matthias (matthew). James married sarah wilson nee Brown in Brancepeth 1805 before moving to Chester le Street where James was baptised 1809.

James snr died Newbottle 1849, Sarah can be found 1851 with her sister in law isabella anderson- James brothers Matthews wife.

Please get in touch if you would like to share info- double check my findings etc.
