Jane Harrison Dawson

Wow thank you for all the information. how odd that Isabella is a Marshall, Jane Harrison Dawson marries a Marshall herself

This is all useful information. But I agree with nort and trish that you need to purchase her birth certificate in order to have conclusive proof of her parentage.

I haven't added anything of her 'family' to my tree, i simply make a note of it and if i don't find evidence of it being correct it will stay in my notes until later, i do not buy certificates unless i really have to, there is so much you can do for free, of course you could wrong this way but as i said i do not add anything without some proof that it is correct, i am doing as much as i can this way and then going back to everything that cannot be done without certificates 

I am 90% certain this will be the correct family so thank you for all the efforts, there aren't actually many options for Jane on the census returns before she was married and the 'Jesse' as her father and being her second sons name fits in with her son being Jesse although he was know as Alex not Jesse.

I do hope if it is the correct family that Isabella Marshall isn't a relation to my 'Marshall's' also, that would be very odd

Thank you very much Trish, i'm going to get my note pad out and look into everything you have found

Nothing odd about it really. Cousins often married and also Marshall is a pretty common name so more likely they were not related.

[staceyk84]

True, i just would never marry a cousin of mine, far too annoying 

My Marshall's are originally from Durham but they may be no relation to Isabella.   To be related then John Marshall would need to be the brother or cousin of David John Marshall born 1793 Durham, he is the grandfather of Jane Harrison Dawson husband Thomas.

John Marshall married Anne Reed 14 Oct 1821 in Jarrow St. Paul.

Thanks, Reed is also a name in my family tree that married a Marshall 

David John Marshall married Catharine Reed in Jarrow,  its not impossible for John &  David to be brothers and Catharine & Anne i have the same situation in the other side of the family, it would be easier for me i guess! Researching one family instead of different branches because they ultimately come from the same families, if only family trees were so easy
