I wonder if Janet's Mother Mary Conroy's parents are the John & Mary living in Morpeth in 1861 with children, James, Edward and boarder John Steward.  John born Gateshead 1832 and Mary in Warkworth.

In 1871 John and Mary in Alnwick with children Edward, John and Mary age 2. 

Son James from 1861 census - I wonder if he might possibly be the one who married Mary Jane Armstrong in 1875 in Morpeth?
If so, their daughter Sarah Conroy born 1888) seems to be possibly be living in Bedlington in 1891 with widowed Ann Conroy wife of Peter as well as recorded with own Mother Mary Jane .  I believe this Ann had been previously married to Daniel Mackbride (various spellings). Her maiden name was Miller - Father Jacob Miller and Peter's Father on marriage entry  was John Conroy.
It is complicated as the Millers tie in with my ancestors. In 1871 Peter & Ann seem to have my Great X 2 Grandfather's (james Conroy) niece Mary Drummond living with them.  She was the daughter of Adam Drummond and Ann Conroy.

Wow! Thanks, everyone, for a terrific response. It is almost information overload, and will take me while to sort it all out.

A couple of quick observations. Janet of Berwick  and Janet Y C Stewart both have father John. Unfortunately an all too common name. JYCS's  father not identified as "deceased" on her marriage record. Janet of Berwick born 1896. If 1939 register to be believed, JYCS born 1897. No clue as to where name Young came from.

Perhaps when I have had chance to examine the evidence more closely, some of these reservations may be eliminated.
