I don't know if this has been posted before - if so I apologise.

The Sunderland Site https://www.searlecanada.org/sunderland/sunderland001.html seems to be run from Canada but it has lots of good stuff including information on the ships made in Sunderland. 

Worth checking out

Durham Lookup Requests / Monkwearmouth Marriage 1806

Hello there

George Robinson married Eleanor Wright at Monkwearmouth St Peter on 4 August 1806.

If anyone has access to the original register, rather than the BTs which are available online, could they please let me know if her father was named?  Witness names would be helpful too.

Thank you

Thanks everyone for all the fantastic information and links!  Brilliant stuff!

I think I'm still being bit behind everyone though - on which document is the latitude and longitude, please??

Hello there

My ancestor, Wilson Orwin, died at sea 4 Jul 1858.

Looking at his final seaman's ticket record - the one which records the death - I can see that he was master of the C Morrison (I presume the Catherine Morrison registered in South Shields, as Wilson lived in Sunderland) and that the ship left on 24 May 1858 and returned 27 Jan 1859. 

There are numbers above which are 14.793, but I don't know what they refer to.

I'm just interested to know where in the world Wilson may have been buried, and if I can learn the route they were trading on it will give me an idea

Many thanks!
