Thanks for keeping me in mind.  Ken Postle's tree doesn't include my Ann b. abt 1842/3, as far as I can tell.

P.S.

Both Cyndi's list and EOGN have links to Postle Family of Durham, England, which don't work.  But the root address leads to Cement Process Consulting Ltd., Canada, Ken Postle, President, kpostle AT cement-process.com.  Maybe he's the kpostle2725373 who posted the info on Ann Postle & Michael Glendining.  Do you want to contact him?  Better you than me, since you have a direct connection, while I'm just fishing.

Thank you for anything you can do.  Just knowing we're in the same vicinity is encouraging. 

I did a little search on New.FamilySearch.org, and in addition to the christening record you already have, I found the following:

     Michl. Glendining MF8W-CN2 m. 1 Dec 1837 Medomsley to Ann Postle MF8W-CJQ
     Michael Glendining KZPT-GWD b. abt 1800 m. 19 Dec 1837 Medomsley to Ann Postle KCX6-8PM b. 26 Jul 1804 Low Kitty Crag, Durham, chr. 10 Nov 1804 Stanhope, Durham, daughter of Joseph Pastle or Postle, b. abt 1780, and Jane Vickers, b. abt 1785 Durham, m. 22 Oct 1804 Stanhope (witnesses Jonathan Postle & Sarah Hopper friends), who had other children: John 1807, Fanny 1809, Fanny 1810; also lists Joseph Pastle's brother Jonathan, the father of Margaret, Elizabeth, and Rebecca.  This information was patron-submitte, by kpostle2725373, but not contact information is posted.  Researchers have to physically go into the system and identify themselves before their contact info can be accessed. 
     Michael m. Ann and had Rebecca Glendinning MFSD-0K21 chr 27 Oct 1839 Medomsley
     Michael m. Ann and had John Glendining M3TF-17T chr 21 Aug 1847 St. Andrew, Newcastle Upon Tyne
     Michael m. Ann and had John Glendining M3TF-1ZL chr 10 Apr 1852 St. Andrew

New.FamilySearch is currently in beta-testing, but it should be available to the public shortly.  Meanwhile, though, you should be able to go to any family history center and have the consultant there access it for you.  If they don't have access yet, they'll be able to tell you when they expect to have it.  I didn't undertake to combine these entries because you said Ann was the daughter of Jonathan, not Joseph.  The site has wiki capability so users can dispute incorrect information.

Good luck with it.  And thanks again.

Hi,
Coincidentally, I'm looking for both Postles and Glendennings in Durham. Most of what I have on the earlier generations is from undocumented New.FamilySearch.org sources or from the census:
     George Glendenning b. 1809 Sunderland m/1 Elizabeth Orwin b. 1815 Sunderland, m/2 Sara b. 1817/8 Bishopwearmouth
          1. John b. 1836/7 Sunderland m. Elizabeth b. 1837 Sunderland
          2. Elizabeth Ann b. 1837 Sunderland m. David Nairn b. 1836 Sunderland
          3. George b. 1840 Sunderland m. Elizabeth Jane Shepherd b. 1841 Sunderland
                a. James Shepherd Glendenning b. 19 Aug 1866 Sunderlnad, d. 2 Mar 1921 Trimdon Grange, m. 1 Aug 1892 Hendon Bishopwearmouth, to Norah Harriet Clarinda Neagle b. 27 Sep 1872 Boston, Lindolnshire, d. 18 Jun 1900 Trimdon Grange, daughter of George William Neagle, b. abt 1839 Sunderland, and Ann "formerly Postle" b. abt 1842/1843 Blackhill, Durham
                 b. Wilson abt 1869
                 c. Elizabeth O. b. abt 1874
                 d. Martha S. b. abt 1875
                 e. Thomas b. abt 1880
                 f. George S. b. abt 1881/1882
          4. Jane b. 1843/4 Sunderland
          5. Thomas Carr b. 1845/6 Sunderland
          6. William b. 1848/9 Sunderland
          7. Wilson b. 1850/1 Sunderland
          8. Sarah (2nd wife) b. 1853/4 Sunderland

Since I can't seem to find any suitable Ann Postles in the census prior to 1871, I'm wondering whether Ann might have married a Postle prior to her marriage to George William Neagle.  They also had a daughter Florence b. abt 1870/1 Sunderland, but George, a customs officer, is listed as living in Southampton, separate from Ann, in the 1881 census, and he is married to Ellen in Hampshire in 1891.

I'm stumped.  And living in the U.S., I can't readily access the parish registers.  (James S. & Norah H. C.'s daughter Elizabeth Jane Shepherd Glendenning, my grandmother, left England around 1934.)
