Title: George Wylie 1871 and parents
Post by: Rippedflesh69 on Monday 29 April 24 07:41 BST (UK)
Hi,
George Wylie, b. Bamburgh 1865
1881 living with grandparents Robert and Jane Robison
I can't find him in 1871 and can't find his parents. I presume his mother was one of Robert and Jane's daughters. Illegitimate?

The registration district for Bamburgh was Belford - GRO online has this birth

George Weiley June qtr 1865 Belford  10b 338    mmn Robison

You may want to take a look at the 1871 entry under Weiley which has been amended to Wylie - parents John & Mary

Freebmd has a marriage Dec 1864 John Weiley to Mary Robson

There are deaths for John Wylie - Mary Wylie - Jane Wylie all in Jun 1877 in case those were his family so would make sense he was with grandparents in 1881.
