Northumberland Lookup Requests / Re: HELP! Cockburn/Carr Lookup request
« on: Thursday 06 September 07 13:23 BST (UK)  »
Hi Janette

Thanks for that, will be a great help if I can just confirm George and Mary.   I am trying to locate (if possible) the areas in which they lived at marriage, and possible parents.

Many thanks for info.

Hi Geoff
Thanks again for that, have now found John Pringle and Eleanor Bird, m.20.10.1760, Sunderland (IGI) and
Richard, sibling to Elizabeth, though can't find any more.   I have also found John's parents; George and Elizabeth Robson, m.1728, Chester Le Street (IGI).

Have also found sosme of Mary's siblings, parents John and Jane Allison, though can't find gparents.

Really struggling with George Cockburn, native of Meldon, bap. ? 1775, married Elizabeth Pringle, m. 1 Feb 1794.
I know his father was George but can't confirm if mother was Mary Carr, or any siblings.   Any ideas????

Thank you for help so far.

Cheers BH

Hi Geoff

Many thanks for that.   I will continue trying to find Mary's gparents!!!!!!!!!!   George is a bit of a problem too.
I know his parents were George Cockburn (b. Meldon), Miller and Elizabeth Pringle (b. ?? Birtley - but where!!).
I think she may have been born Birtley, Durham but perhaps it was Northumberland, just guessing really because of all the Cockburns and Pringles.   I do know her father was John.   If you can give any help here I would really appreciate.

Cheers BH

Hi Amanda, Hi Barbara

Thanks for the suggestions.   Still struggling because of the various Mary Harrisons (I am not in area to check parish records).   I have tried Durham Online and did find some baptisms but not marriages.
