Looking for great great grandfather
« on: Sunday 17 February 19 15:56 GMT (UK) »
I’m looking for my great great grandfather. Sadly I know very little about the family at all. My grandfather has been a family secret and after 11 years of searching I’ve only just found him. Cyril Bennett. Born 1906 Newcastle on Tyne.

The man I’m looking for lived in the Newcastle/Durham area. Charles Joseph Bennett is his name. He has a son Charles Henry year of birth 1879.

Any help greatfully appreciated.

Louisa Maud

Cyril is the son of Charles Henry Bennett born 1879, and the grandson of Charles J Bennett born Plymouth. Cyril is on the 1911 census with his parents Charles Henry and Florence Bennett.


However I think it is Charles J Bennett and family that the OP is asking about.
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.

Perhaps move to Devon board for Charles J and wife Margaret?
