MORROWLEE

[Withernsea]

My 4xgt grandmother was Mary MORROWLEE b ca 1774/75 (Year of birth estimated from census & age at death).
Mary noted her place of birth as Newcastle on the 1851 census.She married William SIDDELL in 1800 in Hull E.Yks and died there in 1852.
If anyone has the name/s in their family tree, or is able and kind enough to take a look in *any* parish register in Newcastle or surrounding area it will help to eliminate or confirm her birth.

Thanks for the welcome. Here are the census details:
1851 census-2 Mabbs Entry High St. Hull. Mary Siddle Widow   wife's grand (mother) 78  labourer's wife, (living with her grand-daughter & family), born Newcastle on Tyne. (LDS Film 087636 HO107/2362 Folio388v  Page 21 )
The 1841 census notes her bn Yorks, but since she died 1852 I can't verify birthplace and I am going on the premise that the 1841 data is possibly incorrect.

Do you have any children's names for Mary Morrowlee Siddle?  The name is also Moralee and perhaps Marley--there are many deriviatives and each parish in Newcastle had their share.  Maybe there is a name odd enough to help distinguish one family from another.

Yes  the children are:
Martha, Mary Ann, Hannah, George, and Elizabeth.
However, although I don't know where Mary's husband William SIDDELL/SIDDLE was born, I know his surname is fairly common in that region too and the children may have been named after his parents or relatives?
I have noticed the Moralee and Morley derivatives but can't pinpoint her actual birthplace.
