Title: Nicholas Francis Gunning ,Donaghadee, Workington Benfield Durham ?
Post by: Radcliff on Wednesday 02 April 25 19:31 BST (UK)
Here we go again,
Nicholas Francis Gunning, birth date 4th January 1874 Ballycopeland Northern Ireland,

missing from the 1881 census, he isnt with his mother Mary/Cecila or his father Robert in Workington,

in 1891 he is with his widowed mother Mary Gunning, living in the household of the Grant Family, he is down as aged 16 a labourer lodger born Ireland ,

1901 I haven't found him,

1911 census ,25 Dixon Street Blackballs Durham,
Nicholas Junnion, aged 35,born Workington , steelworker married 15 years, 7 children born 3 Living
Muriel Isabella aged 32 born Blackball, or Annie
John aged 11, Lily aged 6, Ethel aged 4, all born Blackball,

1921 this is only a hunch,Im hoping someone recognises the name as their family interest,
Nicholas Gunnion, aged 44 years and 5 months born Cumberland, a widow ,living 25 Dixon St , Benfield Durham, a steelworker,

daughters Lily, Ethel, Georgina ,Doris and son Wilfrid ,all the children appear to have the mothers maiden name off Nicholson, 

I could be completely off track with this one, so if anyone has this family in their tree I wold be happy to exchange birth certs etc for the family

sorry I have no idea how to attach these things, I buy certs, when I have no other option, and have had there baptism certificates for years thanks to a kind roots chatter who sent them via old fashioned postal servicemen leu of the help I gave her on her posts, I am eternally grateful that Irish civil records are now free to view online,

thanks for the 1901 ShaunJ,  again I think this chap had no idea he was born in Ireland, he and his brother were perhaps toddlers when they came over to Workington,

Just a minor correction, all of those references to ‘Blackball’ should be Blackhill (in Consett).

Info only, NIcholas still shown at 1921 address in 1929 electoral registers, 25, Dixon Street.

1930 electoral register shows Robert Gunnion at 25 Dixon Street

By 1939 Robert Gunnion(brother) is living at no. 25.

Wonder who was living at no. 25 between 1930-39?

SS

Georgina Gunnion Nicholas's daughter married 1931 to Nornan Atkinson, was her father recorded as alive /dead on marriage certificate.
