Hi Allan,
Just caught all these messages and wondered how you are related to this branch - which I've got back to the late 1600s if you're interested?!

My Great Grandmother Ada Wager married a James Errington in 1910. They were married in Deptford, Sunderland. James Errington was 34 in the 1911 census record - Do you have a record of him - is he related to the brass founders? ::)

I think he may have been related to Richard Errington the Brass founder.

Message for Hezekiah - Allan is right! James Albert ERRINGTON who married Ada Wager (nee Emmerson) in 1910 was born in Sunderland in 1879, youngest son of John, shipwright, and Mary Anne (Hodgson). John was the youngest surviving son of Richard ERRINGTON, the original brassfounder and his wife Margaret (Redhead).
