Hi Sandra,
thank you so much for all that information
 
I can certainly add to my Family tree now! Unfortunately I don't have a Worldwide subscription on Ancestry, but with your help I've been able to add another Branch!

Best Regards,

Hi

Going further back you might be interested to read the will of Jonathan Kendall (1839) on the NE inheritance database as his niece Ann Charge is one of the legatees. His wife  Jane (ms Parkin) also left a will. Jonathan was born in Romaldkirk c 1770, married Jane in Hamsterley and was a farmer in the Hamsterley/ Staindrop area of co Durham. Through his wife the Kendalls also had an interest in the coal company Hardy, Kendal and Hodgson which ran Crake Scar colliery.

Yes, this is true.  His obituary is in the Globe and Mail newspaper on April 25, 1978.  John Kendall Charge of Islington, died on April 23, 1978.  Husband of Dorothy and father of Mary and Michael.

Don't know if you have Wilfred's obit.  It is in the Winnipeg Free Press, May 2, 1962, page 30. 

He died on April 30 at his residence, Ste H Hugo Apartments.  Husband of Margaret Mowat Charge. He was 80.  Buried at Chapel Lawn Memorial Gardens.

In case you don't have this... Margaret (Mrs Wilfred K) died on or just before March 5, 1971.  There is a very short line about her death in the Winnipeg Free Press on that date.  It doesn't give another date of death, so likely it was the 5th.

Thank you so much William and RunKitty,
I'm going to be quite busy sorting out all the info you have given me.
I've had a look at the NE Wills and when I have managed to sort out the legal gobbledegook, I'll have quite a bit more to add to my tree.
Thanks again,
 
Keith

A PS to my last post.
I've found a Jonathan KENDALL baptized in Romaldkirk on 16 Aug 1769 (abode Cornpark).
This is from the transcriptions that I'm doing for FreeReg.

Jonathan Kendall  of CornPark in the parish of Romaldkirk is named on a probate bond for Christopher Parkin (1808 ). Christopher was  the father of Jonathan's wife Jane.
