I have been watching this topic with some interest.

I have been trying to help an acquaintance track his lost family.

He was born in 1942 and the only things he knows is that he was born in Brampton (Cumbria) while his mother was working as a domestic servant in Cramlington. Her name was Thomasina Burgon (or Burgen) and was apparently unmarried, but had several children.

We have drawn several blanks and the only Thomasina I can find is one that was born in Berwick 1902....but I'm not certain if this was her, because as far as I can ascertain, this one got married to a Peter Dick in Scotland and they died in Scotland in the 80s within a few years of each other.

So if any of your Burgons fit the bill, we would welcome hearing from you.

Hi Arquebus,

Can't see any link here with my lot...

Also, I'm not sure why someone working as a domestic in Cramlington during the war would have a child in Brampton. It doesn't make a lot of sense

On a quick check, the only Thomasina I can find (thru FreeBMD & Scotland's people) is the same one born in Berwick 1902 and that married Peter Dick in Scotland.

Note Burg*n is an Irish name too.

I've recently been looking up my wifes family who came from Berwick and discovered a link with the BURGON family and my wifes (RICHARDSON).

Jim, that's very interesting!

Joanna Ann Richardson is my GGG Aunt (I'm related through her older sister Margaret) and we know quite a bit about this branch of the Burgon family since the 1840s. I've sent you a separate message
