Looks like they moved around a lot. Charles, My great great grandfather was born in Dean Nothumberland, moved with his parents to Kilbirnie, Scotland, then to Whitehaven, back to kilbirnie, and ended up living in Newburn upon Tyne where he died.
Any info?
thanks
Joseph

its the 1907 one, married to Martha Warnock.
Im trying to establish more about the family, I know there were many siblings but Ive been unable to work out how or why he was in Newburn. They seem to have moved around quite considerably.
if you have census info that would be great

Do you think they may have been Jewish? Im curious because from photos and names it looks like it but the records I have suggest they were all christian.

Hi Sandra, You have provided me with so much information which I would never have found, thanks so much!
My great great grandfather died young and nothing is known about him, so now I know a lot more information about his background and family, and rebecca (his sister´s) family.
Its so kind of you
-
Really pleased to have helped - amazing what you can find - I take it you had no idea that a branch had spurred off to the USA ??? Which also means there are relatives in New York.
