I am trying to find out what happened to John Tweedie after he disappears from Cockermouth in 1867.
John Tweedie, illegitimate, born 1840, Cummertrees, Dumfrieshire
1841 Census age 5 months - with his mothers family, Dumfrieshire
1851 Census age 9 with another branch of his mothers family, Dumfreishire
1861 Census age 20, ploughman, Ruthwell, Dumfrieshire
1867 Marries Mary Corr, RC Chapel, Cockermouth. MCert had gis father as Evan Tweedie - which is what I expected -his occupation is Labourer
1867 Birth of Rosannah - her Birth cert has father John Tweedie, Railway Worker. She was born in the workhouse in Cockermouth.
Then he disappears - and no death found, I have browsed Death registration originals 1866 to 1871, and searched the index up to 1911. I intend to keep browsing - so where does he go?
1873 his wife, Mary Corr remarries in Cockermouth, status 'widow'.
1886 Rosannah marries. Mcert has father john Tweedie, Coal Miner, deceased.
I thought I had him marrying again in 1873, Tynemouth - but rats- MCert has his father as John
there is a marriage of John Tweedie in Flintshire in 1870 (see thread in Flintshire forum) - and this John is on 1871,81 in Flintshire before death in 1884, but his birh is 1834 - he is from scotland, and I cant see hime before 1871 in Wales - I am hoping someone will check the Mcert for me - but in the meantime
I have another possibility
John Tweedie marries Margaret (2 margarets on this page either Fiddler or Little)
registered Carlisle 10b771 1870 Q2.
This John/Margaret Tweedie appear in Dumfrieshire on 1871 and 1881 census with his place of birth badly transcribed (71) as Lodender in Johnstone, Paisley Abbey (I think thats them) - but his age is not a good match
If anyone can help - especially to identify the father of the groom on the marriage or the correct transcription of the 71 census i would be grateful
