Collins Look Up Request

[Pythomatm]

Hi,

I have managed to locate an ancestor - Robert Collins, born 1854, married to Phyllis Young February 11th 1884 at Tanfield Parish Church.  Father's name was Charles Collins - Occupation = Sailor.

Robert Collins is listed as being a miner (Coal?).

Trying to find birth details and Mother's details.

Possible match for Aunt and Uncle is George (a labourer - Born Newcastle) & Ann Henery (born Alnwick).

Can anyone help?

Regards.

Hi and welcome to rootschat
Have you got any census details for Robert?  Even after marriage will help as it will pin down his place of birth.
