I knew I had seen two in the censuses and looked at 1851 -couldn't see him.
Your Ambrose is Abraham in 1851 living with the Gordons.
Ambrose b 1821 appears in 1861 with wife Alice and that is the other marriage of 1849.
It does not explain the 1842 marriage but maybe it is this Ambrose who perhaps is widowed during the intervening years. I was just trying to place him- no matter.

hi all,
This one i didnt have!!
Ambrose = Elizabeth Mackerline 1842 Stockton reg.
My hope went sky high, as one of the possibles on the free BMD was a Mary Smith. but she married 1842 Nathaniel Butterwick. Got to find out more on Ambrose for my Ambrose list, could be the one from Potto!

Thanks Fred- although it doesn't help the search for Mary Smith - it has helped you.

good luck

I did look for him later- there is a death for an Elizabeth Burnside 1844 Darlington, so I did wonder if Ambrose then went on to marry Alice Peers in Northallerton

Our Posts crossed Heywood. I have Ambrose/Alice as my Ambrose b.shincliffe 1822 son of Ambrose/Eliz Watson married Alice Pierce1849 Northallerton. Just read your follow up. I believe the Eliz d1844 Darlington was wife of Ambrose1778
Ambrose /Alice are in Staindrop 1871. in 1881 Ambrose is widower and dies 1884
Acouple of weeks ago i found a newspaper article  "Found drowned at Staindrop"
he was seen Saturday night walking home and found next morning drowned in the Beck The moral of this story is "Take your water with the whiskey, not after."

Hi Fred,

so that earlier marriage may be a different Ambrose! I'm not getting involved with these (I plead sanity - well still got a bit  )

good luck

Hi Julie

Just a quick question. Can you place Jonas 1825 Aycliffe as the son of the Edward & Sarah in Guisbourgh?.
Only I have some dates that don't add up.

Hi Gary

I'm afraid I haven't personally researched Burnsides, as I haven't yet established that I belong to them. My list of children of Edward and Sarah came from Fred, I am presently just trying to find any lead that might prove Mary Smith is Mary Burnside. I have to confess a degree of confusion about Burnside relationships and in that way, Mary's confused details are similar!

Hi Julie
Sorry about that. It was just the first time I had seen Jonas linked with Edward & Sarah who resided at Guisborough. There are at least 2 Edward & Sarah's breeding around that time. I was trying to sort the wheat from chaff. I think I have nearly every Burnside in the world execpt the one I started looking for, my GGG Grandfather . I hope to sort it before I end up in Broadmoor. .

Hi Gary

Well on that basis I am not even going to try and sort out Burnsides. If however, you come across any information about Mary Burnside b c 1834 dau of Edward and Sarah, i would be delighted to know.

Meanwhile I am going to look at the whereabouts of the Burnside siblings and the Gordons who seem to be closely internarried to the Burnside family, to see if any clues emerge.
