a long shot

[Inicky]

hello,

im having a bit of trouble, i dont have much information to go on but i hope you can help me, this is regarding my father in laws family.

my father in laws father was called albert robson who died about 1965 and was about 70 and was married to a woman called sara(h) jane huges.    alberts father was ralph robson, who was married to a woman called elizabeth.  any help would be wonderful.

thankyou

oh p.s. from the north east area

[susan p]

There are 6 or 7 Ralph Robsons married to an Elizabeth on the 1901 census for Durham and the north east only looked at 1st 2 pages can you add any futher information.

As you know his father's name (Ralph) I assume you have this from Albert's marriage certificate? If so, what is Ralph's occupation, the residences at the time of the marriage and the witness names? (or is the information just from word of mouth? if so getting the marriage cert would be the next best step)

If Albert died in about 1965 at the age of 70, he was born c1895 and the only Albert Robson, of this age, in the North, not with parents, is born Trimdon, Durham, listed as Nephew. There don't seem to be any Ralph and Elizabeth Robson's with a son Albert of the correct age.

As Susan says, any more details would help greatly.

Regards
Cat 

ps. Found this birth, which I assume is one of Albert and Sarah's children? -

Robert A P Robson December 1915 Newcastle upon Tyne Vol 10b Page 252

also just found out that albert robson married sarah huges in 1929 oct, nov, dec. south shields.  why oh why is it like pulling teeth getting info sometimes.

Let's start with what you know.  Albert died c 1965   Do you know where?   His death should give his age so then it narrows down the search for a birth.  If he was one of triplets then we should be able to spot them in the index as they will have the same or consecutive reference numbers.
