Northumberland Lookup Requests / The Reed Family - North Shields/Tynemouth
« on: Saturday 25 January 25 17:11 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all!

I’ve hit a bit of a blocker and I’m wondering if anyone has managed to unearth any information further back than I have!

It seems as though all of the family were living in North Shields. The furthest I’ve gone back is to Joseph Reed (1789)and Elizabeth Armstrong (1791).

From them, I have their son John:

John Reed (1891) m Margaret Chisholm (1824)

Their son Robert:

Robert Reed (1848) m Isabella Jobling (1851)

Their son Joseph:

Joseph Reed (1875) m Eliza Hunter.


If anyone has any names preceding Joseph and Elizabeth I’d be fascinated. Additionally, any relations to the other names I’ve mentioned here.

Thanks!

Hi, all!

Apologies for wading in on this one.

But, this is my family and I’ve managed to trace it back to Joseph Reed and Elizabeth Armstrong.

Has anyone managed to further back than this, particularly on Joseph’s line?

Thanks

Thanks, Mabel. I'll get investing!

William Bateman has a bit of a chequered history

1892 - running a shebeen

1893 - gave bad advice in the events which led to a young woman's death

The connection must be on Martha's side, as William doesn't appear to have any siblings

Mabel, did Martha have any siblings? My Uncle believes that William and Martha were Ivy's Uncle and Aunt.

My best guess in that case is that maybe Ivy's father was Martha's brother?

Might explain Ivy having the Bateman surname as Martha had married William by then, and as you say, William had no siblings.

Maybe Ivy took William's surname as the man of the house, rather than her potential father's surname which would have been Lewis.

I can't see another explanation as to why Ivy ended up with William and Martha.

Oh, I didn't realise they'd moved to Bargoed but that certainly seems like a reasonable explanation.

Does it say what number they lived at in Cross Street?

Ok - thanks, all.

It's definitely more insight than I had before!

Thanks, all. I have a feeling he might have lied about his age.

Hopefully be able to find a bit more out once records are made public.
