Hi Peter, thanks for the PM. If you could send another with your email address (they are not allowed in a posting for security reasons) I would be happy to pass on the details. It's still a bit hectic here so it might not be tonight.

Regards,
Colin

While browsing through the Durham Bishops Transcripts for Chester le Street for unrelated names to the Croudaces i have come across various entries for Croudaces. They are for the 1780/81 period. These transcripts are on line at Familysearch.org but unfortunately are not indexed so therefore one has to "trawl" through the entries.

Hi Kabeja,

Thanks for the thought but I think I have covered all that area, and even further, for the Croudaces and I am happy to pass the details on to anyone interested. They turned out to be unrelated to my line as far as I can tell. My line has come to a dead end with James Cruddace born c1797.

Hi

I am also searching for William Croudace circa 1814-16 without much success.

If anyone is looking for him in the 1841 census his name is transcribed as Crandall and he is living at Fellside Wickham.

I know he married Sarah Turnbull of Beamish in the parish of Tanfield - parents Robert and Isabella.

If anyone has any further info on William I would be interested!!

My mother in law was a Cruddace.

Hello Cheryl,

I'm afraid I can't help with William, but Littleclaire has him in her lines. She may be away as she hasn't been online for over a week now. As far as I know she hasn't been able to find his baptism.

Regards,
Colin

In the book 'A North Country Estate - The Lumleys,and Saundersons as landowners, 1600 - 1900' by T W Beastall, ISBN 0 85033 180 3, there is the following information on page 50 :

"  In 1813.... The Lambton agent, Croudace, the tenant of Lumley Thicks farm under Lord Scarbrough.....  "

and on page 51. :

"  James Croudace occupied 168 acres at £210 p.a.  4 horses a year  "

James Croudace was Land Agent for the Lambton family.  The reference to '4 horses a year' meant that, as tenant, he had to provide four men and horses to lead wagons of coal along the wagonway from the Earl of Scarbrough's pits at Lumley.

Hi Cheryl, have we been in touch before? Sorry I only just noticed this, life has been a little crazy.

Still no luck with William. One day I hope!

Hope all is well

Hi ,
Not sure that Geni has been around for several years, but I see you're still plodding on Colin.
I'm an Elliott and all of my fathers ancestors were from Weardale.
Re Tamar Walton b 1812, I found this information
John Cruddas b 1805 married Tamar Walton Nov 1829 at Middleton in Teesdale
They had a son Thomas b1831
John Cruddas died in 1832
Tamar married James Wall  in 1834 in Middleston in Teesdale
They had 4 children Henry, Elizabeth, Mary Jane and James
I think James Wall was from Boltsburn/Rookhope.
In the 1851, 61,71 and 81 census' they are living at Stotsfield Burn or Boltsburn.
I've attached a photograph of Tamar.
