I knew the archives were closed, but I did not know you could still look at records at the library.
Do you have to book a microfilm reader? Carlisle is an hour away by train for me and I would hate to be unable to get on a machine.
 
Many thanks

Cumberland / Lewcocks of Irthington
« on: Tuesday 08 February 11 22:09 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all,
I've come to a dead end with my Lewcocks, and I don't know the area well enough to move on. I'm looking for a James Lewcock born 28th Jan 1781 at Gillhouse.
He marries Mary Routledge 9th Feb. 1809 in Irthrington. He gives his abode as Tanpits. I'm looking for his family. His parents were not on the same parish records as far as I could see, so they must be from another village near by. I am planning to visit Carlisle archives (where ever they are now) very soon, but I do not know where to start looking. Any suggestions?

How dreadful

Yes Covent Garden Street must be it.

Now all I need to do is find out where it was.
My family were using Holy Trinity, so I'm guessing it must have been in the east end of Sunderland.

THANKS!

Was there a place called Covent Garden in the Sunderland area c. 1810?
If so, where was it?

there are eight 1841 census records for the name Crawford, living in the townland of Dartress, in the Parish of Dunboe, at www.emeraldancestors.com
It costs £9.99 for a months sub, well worth it.

My great grandfather and his brothers were not born until the 1860's and 70's . The 1841 census is jumping back a generation. I don't do that as a rule I take my family tree back one generation at a time. I need to find the family c. 1880 to be sure it's them.
But thanks for the website. I'll look into it.

Sorry I missed out a brother.
There is also a older brother James Crawford born c. 1863.
He gives his place of birth as 'Ireland, Co. Derry'. I think!
The handwritting has a great big smudge over the 'Co.' And Derry is originally writen Berry. And has been crossed out and replaced with Derry. Oh the joys of Family History.

I am happy to return any favours with a look up on my side of the UK is anyone needs help. I can help with Newcastle, Durham and Carlisle archives.

Thanks,
I can only guess their DOB by their ages on the census returns.
But Martha Crawford c. 1838 I have no idea what her maiden name was. There are no clues. I can't even guess. She died just before the 1911 census was taken. If only she had lived 2 more months!!!! :0)
Joseph gives his place of birth as 'County Tyrone, Ireland' no mention of Derry.
It's Thomas who gives Derry as his place of birth. I have presumed since they were brothers that they were all born in the same place.
William c. 1869
Thomas c. 1871
Joseph c. 1873
and Martha c. 1876
