Lanarkshire / Re: Kirk Street, Glasgow 1880's .

My family also lived in Kirk Street, numbers 40 and 72.  My 3rd great grandparents died at number 72 in 1858 and 1860.

You have been fab this morning, much appreciated!

Would you be able to locate William LYTH(e) their son born 1883/4 in the 1891 census as he doesn't appear to be with the rest of his family - may give extra clues to the rest of the family! 

Also William LYTH(e) senior, probably born around 1827 in the 1851 or 1841 census somewhere. 

Probably shouldn't pursue this Lyth line any further up the tree really but I can't resist taking a peek into their lives - wonder if they were still living in the Rose & Crown Yard back then.  It is still there today, so will have to take a run over at the weekend to take a look.  The Lyth(e) seem to have married into the Harrison's over the years, so if anyone reading may be connected please get in touch with me!

Thanks Tati

Great stuff!!  It all fits perfectly, and going by naming patterns I would suspect that Thomas's father, husband of Grace would have been a William!  Thomas and Mary named their first daughter Grace too. 
Explains why Thomas would be living with his Aunt in 1881 and with no apparent siblings.  This is all seeming just too good to be true!! 
Many thanks  :-D


....  Additional:  On further investigation, there is a Grace Hutchinson bap in Whitby 17th Dec 1827, mother Jane no father named - godparents John Hutchinson & Mary Harrison.  I see this Harrison line may get confusing  :D

...... Free BMD has a William Lythe died Sep qtr 1863 in Whitby

Bingo!!!

Thanks very much for taking the time to look that up Tati.

Seems it is the correct family, Rose & Crown Yard is Flowergate and this is where Thomas was in 1881 too.  I'm chuffed to bits to find this family especially being involved in the Jet industry of Whitby!  :-D

Don't suppose you could place Thomas in 1871 or 1861 at all could you so I can see who is parents are as he was with his Aunt in 1881!

Thanks again

p.s. would you be able to locate William LYTH(e) their son born 1883/4 in the 1891 census as he doesn't appear to be with the rest of his family - may give extra clues to the rest of the family!

Hi

Would any kind person be able to look up this family please for me on the 1891 and/or 1901 census?

It is the family of Thomas LYTH(E) born abt 1857 in Egton/Whitby area.  His wife is hopefully Mary Elizabeth (nee HARRISON) born abt 1858 St.John's area of Newcastle.  If it is the correct family they were possibly married June qtr 1882 in Hartlepool. 

Thomas is most likely to be a Jet ornament worker, and likely to be at 7 Flowergate in Whitby in the 1901 Whitby census.

Keeping my fingers crossed that I am following the correct family here  :-D

Many thanks in advance

Hi

Following on from the census data above, if it helps at all, I have:

Thomas INDIAN bn abt 1785 married Susan HAVELOCK bn abt 1785 Alston (daughter of William HAVELOCK and Elizabeth HETHERINGTON)

May tie in with yours, given the middle name of HETHERINGTON to one of the INDIAN children!

Please let me know if it does!

Cumberland Lookup Requests / Re: Thomas Harrison wives - Alston, Cumberland

Hi

My Harrisons are from Alston, but I am not as far back as you, so haven't tackled this Thomas mystery yet. 

My line is John Harrison born 1825 Alston, a son of John Harrison and Jane Havelock - does this connect with your family?

Regards, Amanda
