Searching for Redshaw roots
« on: Tuesday 23 June 09 21:33 BST (UK) »
Hi folks,
         
         I'm hoping someone might be able to help give some information to kickstart this search, but I've only limited facts to go on so it might be a longshot!
          My partner's family come from the Ashington area, but all she knows is that her grandfather was John Robert Redshaw born c1891 and that he was married and living in Pegswood early in the 20th century. The only other fact she has is that he was brought up by his grandparents, but she does not know which village!! ::)
            With this limited info I'm far from expecting miracles, but any glimmer of help would be much appreciated. :)

Hi Lizdb, you're a star! Thats quite some info to be getting started on. My partner knows a few of the places you've found; Ulgham,and I think it may be Stobswood and Radcliffe, they are all in that area and not far from where her late mother lived in Lynemouth. Cannot thank you enough. :)

Hi Sally,

       Many thanks, we think that John Robert Redshaw would be the gt grandfather as my partner's grandfather was apparently the eldest child. We think JR the younger moved in with his grandparents because there were subsequently so many younger siblings.  :)   TL
