It's hard to know where to start with my Newtons.

Mary Newton was born in Shildon in 1842. I have her birth certificate which tells me her father was William Newton and her mother was Dorothy Wandlass.

I haven't found the family in the 1841 census, but later censuses give William's birthplace as Marlow Hill (1851), Marley Hill (1861) and South Church (1871) and point to him being born between 1808-1810.

I know that William and Dorothy married in Chester-le-Street in 1833. Dorothy's birthplace appears to have been Newbottle.

My great Aunt's diary has an entry in it which says "GGrandfather Newton was an inspector of mines for Sir Joseph Pease. He was a fine Quaker and founder of the church".

They had three children before Mary. Ann was born in 1834, Robert in 1837 and Luke in 1840. The places of birth for the children appear to be Newfield for Ann and Robert and South Church for Luke.

Dorothy's parents were Ann and Luke which makes me suspect that William's father may have been called Robert....

Any advice would be very gratefully received.

Wotty.
