One more for you, do bear in mind that
a) you need to check this out carefully, I believe its right, but its up to you to check and verify it. I am only offering these as 'possibles' for you to check out.

b) Rootschat policy is that we are not allowed to discuss or post about anyone who may still be alive, so I have just left initials in a couple of the newspaper notices if I think there is a possibility the person may still be alive.

Given the above d.o.b. its easy to find them on the 1939 register and DO check the register image (always check an image) as names are not always transcribed correctly.

Thomas Edward and Elizabeth Coulson did have another child (initial S as in the newspaper notices)
If you search Free BMD and look for Graham births, specify MMN of Coulson and a district of Gateshead 1920-1930, the registration is easily spotted. So far I have been unable to find a definite record of this one's death so won't post the name.

Hopefully, seeing where I searched and for what will help you to look for the others. I've run out of time today to do more.

If you get stuck and need help with specifics, post back and we'll help if we can.

Boo

Hello hexhamlad! I have been following this query with some interest. On a collateral line, I have a number of Gillender/Gillinder people who were from the Whickham/Ryton area. I don't know if you are interested in pursuing your collateral Gillender line, but mine are all in the mid 1850 time frame thus far. Please let me know if you are interested. Sincerely, patrexjax
