My great grandfather, William Jackson 1839-1984, had three wives. His first wife was Elizabeth Ellerington, born on 5th August 1842 to Robert and Jane Ellerington.
*
William and Elizabeth married on 30th June 1863 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne. They had one child, Amos, who was born on 21st March 1864.
*
William remarried - to Margaret Laidler on 25th April 1868 - so Elizabeth died between March 1864 and April 1868. But WHEN and WHERE?
*
It could have been in Northumberland or Durham, as William's business was based in Sunderland. I have purchased two certificates already with no luck, so I'm reluctant to buy any more.
Thanks
