csp - could your g-grandmother moved to Scarborough, maybe for work? This happened in my family - my grandmother moved to Scarborough to get domestic work. I notice there is an Ellen Small born about 1865 in the 1881 census. She is living with the Errington family in Durham and shown as a stepdaughter. Maybe her mother married Thomas Errington? Ellen's place of birth is Wreckington, Durham. Worth considering.  Good luck!

As my family lived in Chatwyn's yard in Dumple Street, it seems like there are quite a few of us whose ancestors probably were close neighbours!

Thank you for this Lesley I haven’t done any family history for a long time and have only just seen your post. I’m now hoping to start researching again.

Kind regards,
Christine

I'm very new to family history and was interested in reading about Dumple St.  I'm trying to trace my ggmother Ellen Small, who gave birth to my gmother Mary Ellen Small at Scarborough Workhouse on 14/05/1889.  The only info given on the bcert is Ellen Small, spinster, charwoman of Scarborough, no father is named. During my search I got a mcert for Ellen Small 24, Hawker of 5 Chatwins Yard, Dumple, Scarboro. She married Samuel Robinson 35, Labourer of Sepulchre Street, Scarboro on the 19/10/1890 at St Peter's RC Church.  I'm trying to find a connection and found the pictures and info wonderful. I looked on the 1881 census but there was no Ellen Small there. I've tried to find records from the workhouse but no luck, just working on it now!
