Northumberland / Re: Help with 19th Century addresses in Walker, Willington

Hi MH,
If click on this link http://gis.durham.gov.uk/website/interMAP/viewer.htm then choose the search tab and enter the postcode NE6 4LT it will bring up a modern day map of Fisher St. You can choose different time periods from the drop down box. You can pan round the maps to look for other streets.

Added: the post code NE6 3BT 1894-1899 map will find Diamond Row, Church street is supposed to be on the same image but I was unable to see it.

Hi Ceeoh

Ushaw Moor is probably just over a mile from Old Esh.

Hi Ceeoh
The village of Esh is often called Old Esh. The older people still refer to it as Old Esh. Its a beautiful little village.

Hi Ermy
It definitely points to at least one AB b 1762  being alive in the UK after the death of the AB in OZ.
Just to add it looks like Violet died in 1849.

Hi All
Just a bit of info on the Violet 1806. It would seem she married William Farnaby in 1831 at Hutton Rudby. I found her with her family, and an Ambrose aged 80, who is noted as not born in county, in the 1841 census,  HO107; Piece 1258; Book: 9; Civil Parish: Hutton; County: Yorkshire; Enumeration District: 2; Folio: 17; Page: 26. Her age is noted as 35 so an 1806  birth. If the Ambrose is her father then he would have abt 45 when she was born.

Yorkshire (North Riding) Lookup Requests / Baptism of Violet Burnside 1806 Yarm
« on: Sunday 28 February 10 12:21 GMT (UK)  »
Hi
I wondered if SKS had access to the Parish records for Yarm could look up the baptism for Violet Burnside baptised 18th Feb 1806 to Ambrose & Elizabeth. Any extra information would be most appreciated.

Well the OZ AB certainly seems to be odd even for a Burnside.
My theory is that the OZ AB was the son of Benjamin baptised in 1779, this is mainly based on naming patterns as the OZ AB has a son named Benjamin. I have trawlled the George Bell collection for a marriage to a Sarah nothing even close, nor is there anything likely in the IGI. I wondered if this marriage took place abroad?? or did they ever marry??.
The AB that married Elizabeth Hull is, I believe the widower of Violet Patterson. I think the PRs for the birth of Violet in Yarm 1806 may shed some light on that relationship.
And finally the AB that married Elizabeth Watson was the son of Edward baptised 1778, again based on naming patterns.
This is just a theory.

Hi
The death of an Ambrose Burnside in Sedgefield in 1843 aged 80 had me thinking hard. If the age at death is right then a birth of 1763 would be interesting. Is this the Ambrose from Blackwell 1762?. I only have the one Ambrose c 1762 in my list, my thought on this is that if this is the Ambrose from Blackwell then who is the AB in OZ who's DC information suggests a birth c 1763.
