Joseph Thompson Death

[River Tyne Lass]

North Shields local studies is now open Lisa.  You would be able to check out various deaths with this name if you went here.  If you decide to go this route check with them first regarding what is available as if anything is used it goes into 72 hour quarantine.

I had a quick look for him in the Preston burial register last time I went but I could not see him there under this year.  Perhaps this one might be at Church Bank or elsewhere.

Thanks RTL. I will certainly arrange a visit, I will have to fit a time in around work.

I have received a death cert for what I though I had ordered for 1944 but it states 1946

Joseph Thompson
Death 11th May 1946 aged 69 years
4 Lambs Terrace, West allotment.
Stoneman in coal mine.

I can't read cause something to do with bladder.

In the presence of R Thompson his son.

I don't think this is the correct one as I can only find 2 children for him, Joseph 1905 and Mary Jane 1914.
Unless I've missed one.

Where is he in 1939? If you check that it should help with possibly eliminating him.

I think I have a 2nd wife for Joseph Thompson

In 1933 to a Lillian Kennedy at St Joseph's Gateshead.

I will See if I can find the record ref and order the certificate.
It's states both Josephs parents.

There is also a marriage for a Joseph Thompson and Lillian Kennedy in 1923 in Tynemouth.. Not sure if it's coincidence. No parents showing.

I still haven't found death records for them.

There is a possible 1914 death record for Mary Ann Thompson his 1st wife.

Could she have died in child birth with her daughter?

It is more than likely that what has been indexed on Family Search as a marriage in Gateshead is in fact simply a note about the marriage added to the baptism entry at St Joseph’s Gateshead. This was quite frequently done.

The marriage took place in Tynemouth.

As jonw65 pointed out here, when he drew your attention to the marriage back in March, 1933 is probably an error, it was in 1923

Thanks. I have the marriage certificate now.
Joseph and Lillian look to have had 2 children.

Peter Thompson born 1928 Tynemouth
Ann L Thompson born 1926 Tynemouth

I can't find any of them in a 1939 census, nor can I find Lillians parents.
Going off the marriage certificate Lillian was 27 so born approx 1896
Living at 37 Dockwray Square, North Shields.
Father John Kennedy, deceased, Coachman.

This looks like Lilian (Lily) at 37 Dockwray Square in 1911

Here's the same family with father John in 1901 (Lily's birth wrongly transcribed as Tredlington)

Edit I see you already have the 1911 entry on your tree 

[JenB]

nor can I find Lillians parents.

You can see from the censuses that 'Lilian' was named Lily in both 1901 and 1911.

So search for the birth of a Lily Kennedy and you will find it in Morpeth RD (which includes Bedlington as given on both censuses) in 1895.

The entry gives you her mother's maiden surname which will enable you to find their marriage
