I have discovered there has been discussion regarding passengers on this ship. I have two ancestors who were this voyage. John and Amelia Simmons (Semmens) and would like to get in touch with Diana or any other member who may have may have information.

Cheers,
Bob

The three children baptized in Durham have fairly exotic names for the North East. The oldest one is actually Jemima Flora Kentuckiana Tate. I wonder if William had links with the United States. On all three baptisms the parents are "of the Parish of Framwellgate". They were at a Non Conformist Chapel, so Melona could have been baptized in one of the Non Conformist Chapels in Alnwick or Morpeth area.

I think the marriage in Jarrow is the right one.

On the Assisted Immigrant Passenger List for the Andromache, Melona Brown is described as :
"A native of Guyzonmills Northumberlandshire, daughter of Wm Tait Dyer of the same place, and of Eleonor Tait, daughter of ---- Wortley Durham.

Calling - Cook and House Keeper
Age on embarkation - 26"

Alan.

Thank you Alan,

I have found in the IGI an Eleanor Tait. Father- William Tait, Mother- Eleanor. Christened 17th April 1816 Pottergate Street Scotch Presbyterian or Protestanainwicknters, Alnwick, Northumberland, England.

Would This be a non conformist Chapel?

Bob.

I see William Washington Franklin Tate and his wife Mary ,names their  daughter Eleanor Melona Tate
Felton,3rd of Feb 1834

The names of the children of Melona and the children of Wiliam Washington are consistant. eg Dorothy Ursula, Eleanor Melona, Alice. So therefore I believe Melona is a member of this Tate Family

Welcome to RootsChat
You have posted this on the Durham board, it would be better on the Northumberland board. Also it is Northumberland, never Northumberlandshire  :)
