Elizabeth Gray

[RICHIE]

Hi, I'm looking for any information with regards to Elizabeth Gray who married Joseph Chicken in 1831 at All saints church Newcastle upon Tyne . 1851 Census has her birth as Longbenton Northumberland circa 1811 and the 1881 census has her birth as Killingworth Northumberland. Any information with regards to her parentage would be appreciated . I believe she died in 1889 in Houghton Le Spring .

The names FORSTER and RODGER used as given names suggests that these are family names from earlier generation.

Joseph would be named after his father, so RODGER might be ............paternal grandmother?

FORSTER might be .....maternal grandmother?

What do you know about the family of Joseph CHICKEN, the better to see which family....CHICKEN/GRAY .......these family names might be from.
