He worked the railways - I should find out more about that I guess.

Doncaster and Peterborough were both stations on the main line of the Great Northern Railway.

Thank you for that.
I am sure I am going to have to spend money now by paying a researcher to access the records office at Lincoln.
But if Dorothy is Sarahs baby - she may have been born in Doncaster??

hello Claire
I don't know if you have already solved this puzzle, but there is evidence in the Lincoln, Rutland and Stamford Mercury newspaper from 1846 that Frances Hosthead applied for maintainence for her illegitimate child (presumably Dorothy) on Fred Robinson, labourer, at Gainsbrough Petty Sessions. You can find transcripts of the entries on the Genuki site. As Frances is an ancestor of mine, we are related!

Ditto from me :)

Thanks for the link Kath.  By changing the year in the URL, you can get from 1843 to 1851 apparently.

Back to this thread - did we ever find Fred ROBINSON's origins?  :o
Don't cry because its over. Smile because it happened.
