Census Lookup and Resource Requests / Re: 1911 Census Lookup

Yeah, I will.

Ah that makes sense now.

Any luck with finding him in 1911 yet? I'm still stuck.

By the way, it's interesting that his bigamous marriage to Annie in 1919 was unreported by local papers at the time.

Hi,

Regarding burials-- this is what I know.

Frederick's first wife, Eleanor d. 15th September 1938, Blyth. Buried at Blyth Links Cemetery.

Frederick Watson d. 13th February 1947, Hull, Yorkshire. Buried at Northern Cemetery 17th February 1947.

Have not got Annie's yet, but I think the one you provided sounds convincing.

I have only found them in the 1921 Census thus far, but I was told by somebody that they are present on the 1939 Register but I'll double check anyway.

Edit:- Just saw your new reply, shall review what I have just written.

Hi Ray,

Thanks very much for your reply.

Yes, unfortunately this Frederick isn't him (like you said.) This Frederick with Mary Burns was the son of Charles Watson and Jane Johnson, whereas my Frederick was the son of Joseph Watson and Jane Lawther.

Thank you,

JackB

Hi,

Yes, I was having lots of trouble finding Frederick at all (past 1901), and as RootsChat was down, I decided to try and post a question on another genealogy forum to see what I could find there in regards to where he died etc. etc.

Do excuse my dedication to this matter, I understand that it may be quite troublesome and tiring for some.

Thank you,

Jack

Census Lookup and Resource Requests / 1911 Census Lookup

Hi,

I would like to find someone on the 1911 Census please.

I am looking for Frederick Watson, a boilermaker and rivetter of Durham. He was born on the 31st July 1866 in Broomside, Durham, the son of Joseph Watson and Jane Lawther.

He married Eleanor Blenkinsopp nee Rodenby on the 16th March 1901 at St Cuthbert, Blyth, Northumberland.

In the 1901 Census, he is living at 5 Back Percy Street, Blyth, Northumberland, with Eleanor and his step children.

Around (1910 (approx.)), he left the family and moved to Hull. In 1919, he married Annie Maria Dawson (1882-1955). In the 1921 Census, he is living with Annie at 126 Waterhouse Lane, Hull. He died in 1947 in Hull.

I am having trouble finding him on the 1911 Census. I know that by 1910, he had left Eleanor (he is not present on the 1911 Census with her and her children.) Would anybody be able to help me out here?

Thank you,

JackB

P.S. His birth area has been transcribed as numerous different things. He was born in Broomside, Durham, but it has been transcribed as "Burnside" and "Bumrike" before.

Cheshire Lookup Requests / Newspaper Lookup
« on: Monday 02 March 26 21:15 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,

Unsure as to whether this is the right board for this, as this story relates to both Cheshire and Sunderland.

I am wondering if anybody is able to do a newspaper lookup for me please? In 1928, Mr. George Scott Blenkinsopp of 40 Mount Road Cheshire, was charged with making false accounts and records at the Seaham Harbour Labour Exchange. I understand that he was taken to court because of this.

I know that it was reported in the Sunderland Daily Echo and Shipping Gazette in 1928, and I would be very grateful if anybody were to "lookup" this page/article for me.

Thank you very much,

JackB

Northumberland / Re: Trouble With Frederick Watson b. 1867
« on: Thursday 26 February 26 20:54 GMT (UK)  »
I still have no luck with Frederick. However, I have just acquired the death certificate of his wife Eleanor Watson (Rodenby), from 1938, and Frederick Watson is recorded as "deceased", and his occupation "A Shipyard Labourer".

This suggests that he died sometime before 1938 (either in England or somewhere else); I'll have a check at UK Passenger List Records to see if I can anybody who fits him.

Thank you,

JackB

Hi,

Thanks so much for your help. I think these are definitely them. What an annoyance incorrect transcriptions and faulty indexing can be!

Thanks so much,

JackB
