Hi Wendy,

That's brilliant, thanks very much for your help!

I am looking for information regarding Annie Ralph, she married Fred Kendall in Bradford in 1911.  This is pretty much all the information I have.  This person may be an Annie Ralph who was born in Keighley in 1890 but lived in Bradford from the 1901 census. 

Apologies for my lack of geographical knowledge regarding West Riding, but I'm hoping I'm looking in the right area, any information would be gratefully received.  Thanks Tootz.

Hi Laurina,

It looks as though John Ferguson was born approx. in 1826 in South Shields,   (about 15 miles north of Seaham, Stockton is about 20 miles south from Seaham.) 

It could be possible that he had a son called John but he doesn't seem to be mentioned in any of the records I've looked at, but it may be worth looking into, as he may be a relative of some kind. 

Thanks Tootz

Can anyone help me find out more about the Farquharson's in the North East?
All I do know is that Thomas Farquharson was born in 1856 in Seaham Harbour, his mother Ann was born in 1832 in South Shields and was a widow.  In 1901 they lived in Eston, near Middlesbrough and in 1881 they lived at 5 Adelaide Row in Dawdon, although the spelling of the surname has confusingly changed to Ferguson and says Ann was born in North Shields. 
Can anyone help me find out anymore about Ann's husband, (who may have been called John or Thomas Henry) and Ann's maiden name please?  Any information would be gratefully received, as feel as if I've been banging my head against a brick wall!  Thanks tootz

I'm trying to find out about Thomas Farquharson (b. 1856) in Seaham Harbour, Ann Farquharson (b. 1832) in South Shields, she was widowed before the 1881 census, I believe she may have been married to either Henry or John (who died around 1858.)  I would love to find out more about Thomas's father and mother.  Can you help, please?
