Liddle DOBSON

[DS]

I have found a marriage of Thos DOBSON/John ATKINSON and Isabell STATHAM Sunderland June Qtr 1856 on Free BMD

Hi Noreen

I think that there might be a slight problem

According to the Sunderland registration site

http://www.rootschat.com/links/01p7/

Isabella Statham married John Atkinson (not Thomas Dobson)

Click on “Search our indexes” in the long list of underlined links and check it out.

Sorry

I can't find a suitable marriage on the Durham Council site, which has a complete index of the marriages in the current County Durham area.
As we know there isn't a suitable one on the Sunderland site. Nor can I find a match at Gateshead.
But I did find this in Newcastle:
Thomas Dobson married Isabella Wallace, 1857, St Nicholas, Newcastle.

Hi

This is only a possibility which might tie in with the marriage found by Jennifer.

Isabella is not with her parents in 1861 and she does not seem to be anywhere else under her maiden name either.

Thank you DS, Jen B and HA for helping me with this research.  I had looked on the BMD Durham Site for the marriage of Thomas DOBSON and Isabella and also Free BMD I was about to look on Ancestry BMD when you seem to have found it. 

My grandfather was Jane GRAYDON's brother James Fletcher GRAYDON. 

I wondered where the name Liddle came from, as we use Graydon frequently as a Christian name.  I think this marriage is the correct one found by Jennifer and will apply for it.  Thank you again for all your help.

Thank you very much indeed.  I sent for a copy of the marriage, straight away, on 8 Sept 1857 - Isabella WALLACE  and Thomas DOBSON at St Nicholas, Newcastle upon Tyne, I like marriages as sometimes there are family members as witnesses!!

Thank you
