Oliver/Blakey Lines Sunderland
« on: Saturday 01 January 05 02:59 GMT (UK) »
Hello, searching for any and all info on my Oliver line.

My great grandmother Elizabeth Oliver was born 1 July 1903 in Sunderland. Her parents were George Oliver, b  Abt. 1876, who was married to Sarah Ellen Blakey in 1897 at a Registry Office in Sunderland.

Siblings of Elizabeth could be Matthew, Isobel, George, Nora, Harold, Winnifred, Charles and Ann.

Most of the family migrated to Australia before 1925.

Can't read her father's cert very clearly, says something about being born in Monk Wearmouth? Does that ring any bells for anyone? George's father (also George) was a Ship's Captain. I believe George Jnr was a Fitter and Turner or similar.
