COMPLETED Kanes in South Shields

[Riddlebrick]

Hello

I have received a birth Cert for my 4x great grandmother today and have found that her mother is not who I thought she was. 

Isabella Kane was born 17 June 1841 in Westoe.  To Francis and Isabella Kane (formerly Grewcock)  Sadly looking at the BMD, her mother died in the June quarter I can only assume after giving birth.

I believe that the 1841 census was taken on June 6th, however I have been unable to find Francis(born Ireland abt 1815), his wife Isabella and their son Henry who was born 1838 South Shields, quite probably in Westoe too.

I have also had trouble finding Francis, Isabella jr and Henry on the 1851 census.

Francis remarried in 1855 to Mary Ann Carlisson

Isabella was living at Willow cottages, westoe with an Aunt in 1861 aged 19 prior to marrying William Small in Newcastle a few months later.

I would be grateful if anyone can find her parents and brother on 1841 and her on the 1851 census.

I have also looked at the bishops transcripts for Holy Trinity on the pilot on family search for a baptism for her or a burial for her mother but haven't managed to find anything so If anyone has access to parish records (I have searched durham records online) and can find the burial, that would be great.

Thanks in advance

What was Francis' occupation on the birth certificate, and where were they living at the time of the birth?

Excellent work Wolfie

I still cant find them all in 1841

Emma,
Do you have a private Tree on Ancestry?. There is 1 with 5 sources for Henry.G. born 1838.

I still cant find them all in 1841

Neither can I. I checked Brunswick Street, but will do so again to be certain.

wow thank you all for what you have found so far.

Interestingly Francis is shown as a Labourer on the Birth cert for Isabella,  I wonder what his Job as a Soda Manufacturer involved.

Alan, thanks for the 1851 census info and the newspaper death notices.

Trish, I think it is my tree you found on Ancestry.

I will continue searching for 1841.

Thanks again

Emma
