Hi everyone, I'm researching my Ormston relatives. I've been scratching my head over my great grandparents Robert Ormston & Ada Hannah Ormston (Richardson is her maiden name).

They had 5 sons Wilfred, Roy, Victor, Kenneth & one more Melville who sadly died as an infant. I never met any of them but I know that Wilfred (before early death in 1974) and Ken were classical singers and regularly performed around the North East.

Robert & Ada married in 1912 in Newcastle and lived in South Shields.

Robert was born in 1890 in Jarrow, Co. Durham. His mother was Jane Ormston but I don't know her maiden name or husband's name.

Anybody recognise any of these people? Can anyone help/shed some light on Robert & Ada and Robert's parents?

Thanks!
Ormston, Melville, Fiddiss, Fiddes, Richardson, Newbigging, Burns, Miller, Longstaff

Hi and welcome
Duplicate posts can cause confusion so it is best if people reply to you on the other one, which already has answers.
