Dixon, Dorothy 1856
« on: Saturday 11 March 17 18:46 GMT (UK) »
Love this picture of my Ggrandmother Dorothy but she needs some care and attention.  She was born in Gateshead to Thomas Dixon and Isabella (nee Morris).  I know nothing of her sister other than her birth in 1853 Gateshead.

Ggrandmother married William Gibbons and later John Mansell and ended her days in Nova Scotia.

Thanks to everyone for their efforts.  Nice to see their bald spots filled in!

I thought Isabella was born 02 May 1853 Gateshead but perhaps registered in Newcastle as her mother's maiden name was Morris.  I didn't realize you could search the GRO with mother's maiden names.  Isabella Morris' parents lived in Gateshead.  The family is not found on the 1861 census and mistranscribed as Dexin in the 1871 and children all show different places of birth so the family did move around.
