Hi Janis
If The Christison's in the 1881 are the same family then all 4 children are born in different places.
Isabella b Brandon
Martha  b Quarrington hill
Joseph  b Castleside
Sarah J b Willington

That's not moving around that much--they stayed in the same county--especially if the father was a coal miner.  They moved alot.  Mine even went to Wales for less than 2 years.

Hi Janis
I Know what you mean, but  Quarrington Hill to Castleside is not a five minute walk.

Hi,
All my family on other side of family were also miners,they used to move around wherever the pits were taking on workers,In the 60s even my Dad moved us to Wales thinking the work would be better

Hi Gary,
Please may I ask where Castleside is? I have never heard of it,

Hi Chrissie
Castleside is the other side of Consett.

Possible Christison's in 1881. No sign of father. Quarrington Hill next door to Kelloe.

According to 1891, he was Joseph, born Scotland ca. 1848. He's a coal Miner in 1891.

The nearest match I see in 1881 is a prisoner in Dorset, occupation Farm Labourer - not sure!

And 10 years earlier, at Willington Durham, there's a Joseph Christison age 23 born Scotland, occupation Police Constable!
