Any Loughboroughs from Hartlepool?

I would welcome any information or contact for this name.  My grandmother was Kate, born Hartlepool in 1882.

Hello, I'm new, as you are aware.  I am very grateful for the replies so far.  I'm highly computer experienced, but a novice genealogist, in fact I use the word very loosely. 

I was not even a teenager when Kate died in the mid sixties, and her husband died during, but not because of WWII, so I doubt even my father knew that much.

I have previously found some of the information provided by 'hpool' and 'keyboard86', but some of it is new, thank you.  I'd love to know the sources you have quoted.  I am still trying to decide which internet sources to subscribe to. (Any advice?) It could be an expensive error.  I am also failing to see how to reply to a PM from 'hpool'.  Perhaps I have to make 3 posts first?

I don't have Kate's birth certificate.  I am being very careful with money, as I could easily get carried away.

I had found details of George's Grocer's Shop, on the Hartlepool headland, but had not actually proved that he was her grandfather.  Thank you.  I am going to try and contact a pub nearby, which seems to show an interest in history, to see if I can get photos of the area.

I assume that as Kate is listed in the 1891 and 1901 censuses as 'Granddaughter', this infers her father died at sometime earlier.  This might explain why most other Hartlepool Loughboroughs are listed as baptised, but Kate apparently not.  Also, even on the 'free' searches I have done so far, she gets mentioned considerably less than the other Loughboroughs.  I cannot explain this.

I found an 1893 newspaper cutting recording the death of Jane Bulmer nee Loughborough on the 12th at 11 Croft Terrace Hartlepool. Jane the beloved wife of Matthew Bulmer and eldest daughter of George and Elizabeth Loughborough age 36 years. To be interred on Sunday, cortege to leave the above address at 2:30 p.m. Deeply regretted. Friends please accept this the only intimation.

I also found a similar record of a youth, Chapman Loughborough being stopped by the police for cycling on the pavement!  He was fined ten shillings and costs.

I have compiled, from various sources, a list of many Loughborough life events, and I am currently trying to relate them to each other.

Thank you both again for your help.  I would do the same for anyone else.

Hi again that birrh certificate or her marriage would define who her father was,  my thoughts are that Kate was the Illegitimate daughter of one of the daughters?

[Mart 'n' Al]

Illegitimate!  How exciting!  Even before today, I have discovered things which contradict what I remember being told as a child.  I hope there is more family openness these days.

Do you think illegitimacy is more likely than her father dying and being taken in by the grandparents?

Martin

[keyboard86]

Hi I really cannot confirm that Kate was illegitimate or not, as stated the birth certificate or location of a baptism would answer your question, it is only my thoughts on the subject, bear in mind if Kate was the daughter of one of the sons, where is the mother in 1891?
