Published: Tuesday 29 July 1856
Newspaper: Teviotdale Record and Jedburgh Advertiser

Per an advert in the newspaper above, a Robert Young of Longtown opens a China and earthenware dealers in Jedburgh.

The 1871 census may not be him. There is a chap aged 66 in Longtown living with his granddaughter Ann Tait. There is no occupation to give a connection.

I’ve found a parish record for Mary Robinson Young, who sadly died in 1845. It states her mother as Jane. So at least it gives a clue for sideways searches for a Jane Anderson.

Hi, just a quick post for tonight, This Mary Robinson Young I believe to be 1 of 4 children born to Robert & Jane

1 Jacob 1837 - 1838
2 Isabella 1840-1846  but cannot find on 1841 census
3 Thomas Anderson 1842-1846
4, Mary Robinson 1844-1845.

Still looking re Andersons/Robinsons

Jane Anderson

This looks very positive if the mum was named!

Well done, I know that feeling of shear elation when finally finding an answer.

Looking geographically at a map a straight line can almost be drawn between Annan/Longtown/Hexham and Sunderland. The below marriage ref may be that of Jane & Robert, timescales would tie in nicely with birth of first child.


Marriages Sep 1837   

ANDERSON    Jane        Sunderland    24   154    
FLETCHER    Elizabeth        Sunderland    24   154    
NIXON    John        Sunderland    24   154    
SMITH    Edward Oxnard        Sunderland    24   154   
SPARK    Catharine        Sunderland    24   154   
STOREY    Frances        Sunderland    24   154    
WYLAM    Robert        Sunderland    24   154
