Something very promising on concluding Elizabeth's marriage to Moralee... started looking into the Patterson alias and I found an Isabella P Moralee who married a Robert Patterson in Q1 1915 in Tynemouth.
I found Isabella on the 1891 and 1901 census b.1895 with wait for it, a brother John... b. 1893 which matches with our John T Moralee's dob on the 1921 and 1939
Isabella would have been a similar age to Elizabeth and maybe they were friends as well as sister in laws
The only major birth date anomaly for John is the 1939 where its down as Dec 1884. Month matches but year is obviously 9 years out. I have cross referenced all dates from 1901,1911,1921 & 1939 and any other documents I have so this is an oddball. Only thing I can think is she completed it and couldn't remember the year so just put him as one year older than her!
In 1901 John & sister Isabella are living with their mother Catherine and step family, the Southwicks. I looked for a Catherine marrying a Moralee and found Catherine Limb married a Richard Moralee b.1855 in Apr 1892 All Saints.
So this Richard sort of matches the Richard Moralee I have living on the City Road in 1918 onward! (birth year is out by 6 years). He would therefore be Elizabeth's father in law, matching with the address she gave on brother Vincent's service record.
Catherine married Richard in 1892, John was born 1893 & Isabella 1895 (then two other children).. she must have left Richard as there is a marriage for a Catherine Moralee to James Southwick in Oct 1899 in Tynemouth and she is Catherine Southwick on the 1901 census with children Moralee.
Richard goes on to marry Isabella Sibbitt in Apr 1900, whom he is living with on the City Road in 1911. In fact they are living the Keelman's Hospital and are still resident on the 1939 register where he is noted as a blind pensioner.
The only other thing is who are John Thomas Moralee Sr and wife Elizabeth at Robins Hood Yard?? Perhaps an uncle and aunt???
So in conclusion, I have ordered the Moralee/Patterson certificate!! Fingers crossed there's a Battista reference on there so I can sleep easy
