Wearhead family in Weardale, Cherry Tree House

[sueellio]

Thank you Suellio
I was convinced the Richard and Elizabeth family  were my ggg grandparents, they had two daughters 2-3 years apart, which seemed to fit.   The birth years were not correct.  Your gravestone shows Ann died at 15.  My Ann married Joseph Hodgson and moved to Quebec and then Ohio USA in 1854.  She had about 14 kids, and died in Ohio about 1905.    Also a 4th cousin of mine living in San Francisco, USA, sent me a marriage document of Ann marrying Joseph Hodgson and Mary marrying William Pattinson.  Also, Mary Wearmouth/Pattinson went with Joseph to Ohio, i found Mary and Ann's gravestones. The father shown for the girls is Thomas Wearmouth living at Cherry tree House. I found  1841 and 1851 census data showing this family living at burnfoot in 1841, then Cherry tree House in 1851.  Then to make it confusing, Mary does not show up in the 1841 census. (She married in 1845)  Ann married about 1850.  Also, Richard and Ann also show up living in Cherry tree house  around that time.  Maybe Richard and Thomas were brothers.... maybe Thomas adopted Mary?   So you are spot on saying things get confusing in Weardale.  I can not find any census data for 1831. Guess there is not any.  I have had no luck with finding birth or baptisms to prove anything either.
Someday i might figure this out.  I might take a vacation and visit the weardale museum, they have a great data base i understand.

Thank you for helping me with this

Oh you're welcome. Yes, they do. I live about 35 miles away , closer to Durham City downstream on the River Wear. Durham has a fabulous 11th century Cathedral and castle and we have some lovely countryside  to explore. Weardale itself is absolutely stunning. Very rural though. I would try and come in the Summer if you do visit.
I don't think we had a census in 1831, or if we did it's not available. Yes, I realise that's not your Ann. More for elimination , plus maybe some help with next generations . I'm not very good at reading family  tree info in sentences. I need to see it in tree format. Is your tree on ancestry public? If so I'll take a look if you can tell me your username or tree name ? Otherwise I'll draw a tree from the info' on here.   I think I have a Hodgson and possibly a Pattinson in my tree. Definitely  no Wearmouths though .I'll see if I can help with anything else . I do know that a lot of the earlier parish records for SJC were destroyed in a fire, but they have what's available in folders inside the church. My grandparents are both buried there and one of my great grandmothers, but my Dad who has dementia now, can't remember where her grave is. Because they were all Methodists the older graves don't have headstones because they were only allowed for people of  Church of England denomination until the later 1900s.

Sueelio, i jumped to my conclusion.  Richard did not die in 1845.... but i need to make up a timeline.  I saw census records showing Thomas in cherry tree and burnfoot.  We salso have two different Richard wearmouth families.... i will try to sort this out.

Ooooh, it gets soooo confusing in Weardale🙄 just about to have a look at your tree. I can see Weardale baptisms for 2 Thomas Wearmouths
From free REG -Stanhope baptisms for Thomas Wearmouth
Thomas Wearmouth - Feb 1798, St John's Chapel
Thomas Wearmouth-  1803, St Thomas the Apostle , Stanhope

What names  did you know for definite from the family history book written in the 1920's ?
Do the graves of Ann and Mary have their Date and place of birth and husband's names?

I could post a screen capture.... but i don't know how,.... and may not be allowed

Mary b 1821 in stanhope,  d 21 july 1906 in ohio usa m to William Pattinson

Find a grave has a photo of their headstones in Brookfield cemetery. Not all this info is on the headstone... some i learned from ancestry searches
