Hi Dave

This is a while coming but Bank Row certainly did exist. My Grandfather George Sutherland was born at 6 Bank Row. His Grandmother Jessie Sutherland Nee. Bruce was shown living there on the 1901 census with her children. She had been a widow for many years by then.

George Sutherland's Mother was Isabella Sutherland she went on to marry and the wedding took place at 6 Bank Row in 1908. Her two sons were born there, the later being in 1910.

I do know it was bombed but if 6 Bank Row was part of that I couldn't say.

Last year my Grandfather's son by his second marriage also a George Sutherland (who lives in South Africa and is an elderly man) went back to try and find out information about his family. Sadly if he found anything he refused to tell both myself and his own son.

Regards
Sandra

Thank you so much, I appreciate your help.
You are right this family did seem to jump around a fair bit since on later census' the daughter Isabella Coventry was shown to be born in Yorkshire, England abt. 1861 although I have been able to find absolutely no evidence of her birth, although I know she existed because she was my Great Grandmother. It makes me wonder if the family took her in from a relative.
Thanks Again.

Hello there.
Just wondered if someone would be kind enough to look uo on the 1851/1861 census for James Coventry b. 1823 (Dunfermline, Fife, Scotland) and his wife Isabella b.1829 Falkirk,Stirling, Scotland.
By the records of some of their childrens births they were living in Glasgow at the time of those census'
Thanks so much.

Hi There.
This is what I could find on the Tucker family in 1841.
Living in Witheridge, Devon.
John Tucker. Age. 30. Labourer.
Ann Tucker. Wife. Age. 30.
Charlotte Age. 10
John. Age. 7.
Ann. Age. 4.
Susanna Age. 10 months.
I hope it helps. In 1851 the family are living at Billhole Cottages, Thelbridge, Crediton, Devon.
I have the 1851 census if you need that information.
