FITTES and HISLOP 1851 1861 1871 1891

[Gadget]

This is an outside possibility for George, snr,  on the 1841. He might well have been at sea but I can't find any suitable canditates in Scotland - either on the census or in the birth records:

1841

Church Stairs, Tynemouth
HO107/826 Book 2 Folio 15 Page 22

Andrew Hislop, 40-44, mariner, b. Scotland
Hannah, 40-44
George, 15-19
John, 14

All except Andrew b. Northumberland



Andrew in 1851:

Tynemouth
HO7/2410 Folio 56 Page 30

Andrew Hislop, head, wid, 60, Tide Waiter in HMC (a Customs Officer)*, b. Scotland

* with thanks to other Rootschatters for helping identify this occ.


No sign of George elsewhere.


I think a few certificates might be needed.

Added - found this baptism on the IGI (controlled extraction)

Christ Church, Tynemouth - 23 Nov 1823 - George Heslop. Parents Andrew Heslop and Hannah

[2zpool]

I can add to your extraction for George Heslop that he was born at Church Stairs and that the father was a mariner.

and a possible marriage for his parents:

June q, 1848, Tynemouth, vol 25, page 508

George Hislop and Sophia Stupart are on the same page.

Just out of curiosity I put the surname Stupart into a search .. only a total of seven turned up in the index for 1841 .. three of whom happened to be living in Tynemouth.

This might come in useful at a later date .. no Sophia though .. ?

1841 census:
HO107/826/6, Folio 45, Page: 6

Northumberland, Tynemouth
Lowlights

Mary Stupart, 55, Seamstress
Mary, 20, Dress Maker
Margaret, 15, Dress Maker

All born outside the county.

Best wishes,

A death for Sophia ..

[Pels.]

1891 census:

Sophia Hislop. head of family, widow, 70, b. London

Just wondering if Sophia changed her name, Pels 

Mary on the 1841 is the correct age and the Mary Ann Hislop on the 1861 might well be Mary Ann Stupart - the -do- is difficult to make out. i've had this happen in one of my lines (Sophia obviously gave the info).

Death

June Q, 1866, Tynemouth, vol 10b, Page 94

Mary A Stupart, aged 84

Think the theory may fit - she was 79 in 1861

[Pels.]

To be perfectly honest I wondered that too .. I know Mary was an extremely common name .. but James called his first born Sophia Mary .. ?

Think you missed my death notice - not mine but Mary Ann's 

Soory - brain death - you meant Mary = Sophia   

I could spend a weekend going around Northumberland taking photos of all these people's birthplaces
