William Milne born Stonehaven 1873

[ev]

what you have so far born stonehaven scotland c1873  , father william(died before 1901) who was a farmer that 1881 census seems to fit very well
proving it might not be easy 
looks like isabella milne(nee stott) died 1893 cookney KCD born c1846
if the father william died 1896 it might be worth looking at his death cert. to
see who signed it off

Hi Tracey

A few questions.
What date was William's marriage in 1901?
What was his address at time of marriage - and his occupation ?
What was Joan's maiden name and her father's name - and her address and occupation ?
What were the names of the witnesses ?

Have you seen William's death certificate - and if so what what details were given for his parents names or occupations ?

Hi Susan, 

William married on 27/6/1901 at the Wesleyan Methodist Chapel, Jarrow, Co Durham
His address at time of marriage was 6 Swindon Street, Hebburn, Co Durham
His occupation was cartman
His father was William Milne, a farmer (deceased at time of marriage)
Joan`s maiden name was Robertson
Her Father`s name was Alexander Robertson , a ship plater(deceased at time of marriage)
Her address was 9 St Andrews Street, Hebburn, Co Durham
No occupation for Joan (but in the 1901 census, they were both living at Swindon St, William was a boarder and Joan a domestic housekeeper)
The witnesses were James Robertson and Ann Beaton
James Robertson was Joan`s brother and he married Ann Beaton in 1906 (South Shields, Q3, 10a 1472)
I don`t have William`s death cert. I assume he died in the NE of England. Do you think it would help?


Regards
Tracey

Hello to Ev as well, I seem to have missed your last message when I answered Susan

Would William Seniors` death cert be on SP?  I`ve only just started working with it, and don`t exactly know how it works.

Kindest regards

Hi Ev,

It looks like the whole MC is in the same handwriting.
But I have William`s signature on the 1911.
Would I be able to get the death cert you mention on SP? Can I view it online or do they have to post it to me?

My hubby reckons that I sat up in bed last night and was saying "put Hebburn in and see what it comes up with"

Hi Ev,

I have looked at it and I think the signatures of the son William are the same. I will p.m. you.
And...he died of narcotic poisoning !!

Kindest regards
