I have family connections with Conningsby House which explains where the house got it's name from. My relative Eliza Pickworth Pogson married a George William Watson in 1891 in Newcastle. Eliza came from Conningsby in Lincolnshire so presumably that is where the house name came from. Eliza's probate record states that she was living at Conningsby House, Morpeth at the time of her death, 12th October 1916. Haven't done much more digging yet as have only just come across this connection. Would love to hear if anyone has additional information about the Watson family.
