looking for the family of Richard Thompson

[KTT]

 I have been researching my family John and Mary ann Thompson married in Newcastle in 1864 and sailed to Australia arriving in Melbourne 1864.
I am trying to find their births in Newcastle in about 1840 -1841

I have their marriage certificate which states that John's father was Richard I don't know his mother's name.
Maryann's father was Thomas Henderson I think she came from Hayden Bridge.
I can't find the birth of John on freebmd.
I would be greatful for any help on this one please

Welcome to RootsChat KTT 

Any idea where John was born exactly?

I can see this 1851 census entry, but with a name like Thompson, I expect there will be others:
HO107/2413 440 8
Hawkwell, Northumberland
Lane House
Richard Thompson, head, 48, Labourer, b. Northumberland Wark
Anne, wife, 32, b. Bellingham
Isabella, dau, 12, b. do.
John, son, 10, b. Stamfordham
Richard, son, 7, b. do.
Thomas U, son, 3, b. do.
