Hi Dawn, I'm not sure! One of the previous posts I made had a reply which unfortunately someone had searched for info already held, therefore I mentioned the previous posts.
Do I search for previous posts, copy and paste in full as part of my question? I can copy and paste?

Family History Beginners Board / John Bradshaw. Previous topic.
« on: Thursday 10 July 14 16:46 BST (UK)  »
I have previously asked questions re John Bradshaw and had helpful replies and various information has been given or collaborated. He was a ships steward and seems to have disappeared, no record of his death. His family, wife Margaret and daughter Margaret Atkinson Bradshaw spent time in the workhouse, on several occasions, at least once due to his desertion. I ordered information on their workhouse records which I have just received. The last part of the information reads -

"It is unclear whether John Bradshaw was still alive in 1922.  The workhouse
record for Margaret (snr) suggests that he was still alive in August as she was listed as wife of John, steward; however, Margaret Atkinson Bradshaw’s marriage in April 1922, records her father as Walter James Bradshaw (deceased) and on the 1891 he is recorded as John W (or H) Bradshaw.  As you know, he would probably not appear on a census return while at sea."

I have searched for a death record of Walter James Bradshaw and cannot find one. How can it be that researchers believe that he us recorded with two different names! I am confused! Any suggestions or help appreciated.

Thank you so much Trevor. The first article is actually the same one I already have, although it appeared to differ. Thanks for clearing that up for me. This is my shady relative!  The second one is now ruled out, as he is older and therefore is not my JB.
I do appreciate your help very much. Regards, Juney

Family History Beginners Board / Access to an article in Shields Daily Gazette 12 June 1904?
« on: Sunday 29 December 13 18:14 GMT (UK)  »
I wonder if anyone has means to access an article that may be regarding my great grandfather John Bradshaw. The article was in Shields Daily Gazette 12 June 1904, page 3, 54 words and the extract I have seen reads, "John Bradshaw  hit a representative of Maxim and Co who had gone from Barrow to Portsmouth with the new..."
Also, a friend previously, was able to access another article about JB, in what I believe was the South Shields Gazette, by actually looking at records at the library there. I don't want to push my luck with another request to him, but have found a reference to an article in the Shields Daily Gazette which may be a fuller report of the same court case. It's on page 3, 428 words and dated 10 March 1904,  the same date as the article my friend found, and regarding the same situation, where JB caused his family to be committed to workhouse.
If anyone can access these articles and copy to me I would be enormously grateful.    Juney

Thanks for all this CaroleW. I have a copy of the certificate on my iPad here. I have tried copy and pasting it here, but it won't do it for some reason. The witnesses were John J Atkinson and what looks like Margaret J Foreman. The surname is hard to read. My problem at present present is that I have  nothing printed out with me so comparing various info is quite difficult. I don't get home til 17th, so I think it will mainly have to wait,malthough i cant leave it entirely alone! i will forward your comments on to my nephew in Australia who has been doing this and wider family research to see what he can now make of it all!
Thank you again Juneys1

Thank you again CaroleW. We were surprised at the shoe dealer (maker you said, maker, did we misread it?) if he really was a shoemaker,that really doesn't fit does it. So you think John illegitimate because we can't find his birth? I think it seems like we're back almost to square one......
I am on holiday at present, and we may be out most of the day, but I will try to recap. Do you think I should search again for John Bradshaw birth?. Juneys1

Firstly apologies that I didn't give all info initially. That's because I was looking for Johns parents and didn't think it necessary to fill background in. I am still learning, sorry you spent unnecessary time looking stuff up. Thank you for what you have now said. Tomorrow I will check out all you have found against what I already have and try to ascertain where I am with this. Thanks Juneys1
