Hi dido

William and Catherine were my gt gt gt grandparents :).  Can you tell me more about how you are related to them?  My family still live in the area and a lot of the information I have on the family came from my grandmother and her cousins.

I think I will speak to my Gran again before spending money, I am hoping that her sister may have more info or certificates as they must be somewhere.

That is the information I had about the marriage, but again it was just found on Ancestry so not 100% certain.

Thanks

Hi Linda

Thanks for the information.  My gran gave me his date and place of birth although she doesn't really know much more.

It just seems strange to be registered in Gateshead if they lived in Mickley.  All I can think is that he was born in Gateshead and then moved to Mickley which could explain the confusion.

Hi Carole

I'm going to ask my gran again to see if her sister has this birth certificate before I go buying it.

It was my gran that told me he was born in Mickley, I don't think they lived there after they married as my gran was unsure where it was.

Thanks

Northumberland / Robert William Holmes - Mickley
« on: Thursday 13 August 09 00:22 BST (UK)  »
My gt grandfather was Robert William Holmes born 27/12/1902 in Mickley.  I know that he married Elizabeth Arrowsmith, but I have no more information on him.

I am unable to find any information about him or his family.  I would expect to find his family in/around Mickley in the 1901 census but haven't really found anything.

Is this name familiar to anyone?  I have found one record on ancestry (although I am unable to look at it as I don't have a subscription at the minute) and it is for Robert William Holmes born Mar 1903 in Gateshead, Co Durham.  Could this be my Robert or is Mickley too far from Gateshead?

Any help would be gratefully received.

Thanks

Helen

I'll post in the Northumberland forum too.  I thought it was Durham.

Thanks

Hi Carol

Would Mickley come under Gateshead?  If this is him then I may have to get his birth certificate to find out who his parents were.

Thanks

Thank you, I will look at those sites to see if I can find anything.

There should have been a will, but I haven't found any evidence of it yet.

Thanks

Helen
