Wilkinsons - Robert b.c.1894 - Gilcrux - s/o Henry & `Ann`.

[frek]

Please can any one help me to trace Robert's birth or baptism. Born c.1894-Gilcrux s/o Henry & Ann.  I need Ann's maiden name.
Robert had 3 siblings:
James b.c.1881 - Northumberland,
Robert b.c.1893 - Gilcrux.
Catherine b.c.1890 at Haltwhistle.
I have been unable to trace any of these.
I believe Henry's marriage to `Ann` was his second and that they married c. 1883-1891.

Many thanks.

Hi Frek,

Gilcrux registers in Cockermouth, apparently.

Nearest match I see:
June quarter 1894 10b 620

The children's ages in the 1901 census are somewhat different from the ones you gave-

Main St, Haltwhistle
Henry WILKINSON 36 Coal miner, Hewer, Aspatria
Ann 35 Gilcrux
James 3 Northumberland
Robert 8 Gilcrux
Catherine 1 Haltwhistle
Edward (boarder,bro) 22 Coal miner, Aspatria
John SANDHAM (boarder) 25 Coal miner, Dearham
Walter ARMSTRONG (boarder) 23 Coal miner, Moor Row

Could this be Henry in 1891?

Prospect, Aspatria
Henry WILKINSON 54 Coal miner, Lancs Pennington
Jane 50 Cumb Flimby
Henry 26 Coal miner
James 18 Coal miner
Catherine 16 DomServ, Hayton
Mary 15
Eddie 12 Scholar
George Cricket 8 Scholar
Ellen 6 Scholar
Jane Eliz (gr-dau) 2
Jane THOMPSON (vis) 16 Whitehaven
All others born Prospect

1881
Aspatria
Henry WILKINSON 43 Coal miner, Pennington Ulverston
Jane 40 Flimby
Nancy 19 Dressmaker

Children all born Prospect

Hi - yes that is the correct families in the censuses. and I have noted my mistake with James's year of birth - many thanks fo that.
This research has taken some time because I did not realise about the Lancs-Cumbria boundary changes.

Thank you.
Frek.

It depends if you believe census ages or not ... you have more than the one that Tati mentioned I think-

Births Mar 1893
Wilkinson    Robert        Cockermouth    10b   632   
Births Dec 1893
Wilkinson    Robert         Cockermouth    10b   595   
Births Jun 1894
Wilkinson    Robert         Cockermouth    10b   620

PS: You also made a mistake with Catherine's birth ... 1900 not 1890.

[frek]

Thank you for reply - I have applied for all of these with negative results. And all the sibling entries.  And all I want is Anns maiden name!

Among the Wilkinsons registered at Haltwhistle in 1900, I can see

Kate Wilkinson - March 1900 - Haltwhistle 10 b 423

Any use?

OK,
Doing this the other way round.
Looking at the Henry found by Geoff in 1891, I see he was widowed in 1891, therefore we are searching for a marriage between 1891 and 1901.

Using FreeBMD for a marriage between a Henry Wilkinson and and Ann, the most likely one that comes up is:
June 1897
Wigton
10b 1038
Henry Wilkinson to possibly Ann Lightfoot

Searching then the 1881 census for Ann's born Gilcrux ca. 1866, I can see only a few:
Ann Lightfoot
Ann E Hind 
Ann Ferguson

(and, a little out: Ann Atkinson and Ann Temperley)
