Hi all
Could do with a fresh set of eyes please.
Two questions -
1. where is the family on ancestry in 1871 - I found them on FindMyPast.
2. Where are the family in 1881
Joseph Wilkinson was bap 25 11 1837 at All Saints Newcastle , living Ouseburn and in 1841 is with his parents Thomas and Jane ( King) at Longbenton. In 1851 he is still with them , now at Crook and Billy Row Co Durham.
In 1861, he is married to Martha Milne marr S q 1858 Newcastle and they are living with their daughter Elizabeth Milne Wilkinson at Forth St Ncle.
In 1871, the expanding family are at Wellington Terrace Westgate Ncle but I can’t find that on ancestry and I think others can’t either , as they have then headed off onto an incorrect tree line.
I found the youngest daughter
Martha Isabella as an inmate at Jubilee Road Industrial School All Saints Newcastle in 1881 , but I can’t track the rest of the family safely if at all.
Martha the mother , dies age 39 in S q 1877, which is probably why they are so hard to track.
The trees online have in my opinion wrongly attributed the Joseph born in Co Durham ( a tailor ) to this line, but Joseph’s baptism clearly states they were living at Ouseburn at the time of baptism , hence me going with the Joseph and Martha line. He was baptised at the same time as his older brother and both state living Ouseburn.
Thanks for looking. I’m fine with his siblings and subsequent generations thanks.
