Where is James Hewson pre 1891 census ?

[Dougalgeorge]

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone could spot my James Hewson (born 1853/1854 in Rickergate, Carlisle) in any census before the 1891 ?

I have tried every spelling of Hewson I can think of and some wildcards but can`t come up with anything that looks like him. Here`s what I have so far -

1891 living at Westgate with wife Sarah (1854 Wigton) and 4 children. Occupation is coal miner
1901 Gateshead, with wife and 6 children. Occupation is retail grocer and fruiterer
1911 Gateshead, with wife and 3 children. Occ is given as `chiefly dealer`

From these sources I think these are the children. They were all enumerated as born in Newcastle, apart from James and Anthony who were born in Gateshead.
Kate 1876
Margaret 1878
Peter 1882
John Robert 1886
Sarah E 1889
Mary E 1890
James 1893
Anthony 1895

I found a baptism for a James Hewson on FS of 22nd May 1853, St Cuthberts, Carlisle with parents Anthony Hewson and Ann Rutherford.
There is a marriage of an Anthony Hewson and Ann Rutherford Cunningham in Carlisle in 1853.
I can`t find a marriage for James and Sarah which should be in about 1874 if the 1911 census is correct.
I`ve run out of ideas so anybody elses would be much appreciated

Hi I started by trying to check the birth records to see it would narrow down the geography of where they might be pre 1891. Have you checked all these births on Free BMD or another source? I am having difficulty even tracking down all the children using the dates you gave - e.g Peter, Kate using Hewson as a surname and Newcastle. I searched the 'all counties' too?and allowed several years either way.   
There are some possible Margaret Hewson's but with years of 1875 or 1879.
I'm just wondering if they were registered under a different surname?

Hi

I tried looking for a Kate born abt 1876 in Northumberland in 1881, but none of the surnames looked as if they could have been mistaken for Hewson.

[candleflame]

There's an Anthony HEWISON registered Gateshead June 1896? I searched all Anthony's, no surname born Gateshead 1893 - 1896.

And there's a Peter Hewison registered March 1882 Newcastle.

I looked for young Peter in 1891 and found this. If this is the right family then Peter is I think the nephew of Marfy Carroll 39 and Peter AND Mary Snr are his grandparents. That would then mean that Sarah's maiden name is Caroll - so may help in search for a marriage


1891 England Census

Peter Carrol 67
Mary Carrol 64
Mary Carrol 39
Catherine Carrol 34
Patrick Carrol 31
Catherine Hewitson 14
Peter Hewitson 9 nephew b Newcastle

I suspect this is the marriage

Marriages Jun 1873   
 
Carrol  Sarah    Newcastle upon Tyne  10b 278   
HEWISON  James     Newcastle T.  10b 278

In relation to David's reply, have a look at this in 1881 :

RG11/5061, Folio 49, Page 23

or :

https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/XQCK-PHK

Sarah living with her parents, but listed as married.

Pels.

Thanks for your replies 

I`ve looked on FreeBMD and found Hewson, Hewitson and Hewison possibilities.

Catherine HEWITSON 1875 Ncl
Margaret HEWSON 1879 Ncl
Peter HEWISON 1882 Ncl
Sarah Elizabeth HEWISON 1888 Ncl
Mary Ellen HEWISON 1890 Ncl
James HEWSON 1892 Gateshead
Anthony HEWISON 1896 Gateshead

A possible marriage for Kate HEWSON in 1900 in Tynemouth to James Stuart Flett or Henry Ruscoe.

Plenty to keep me occupied for a while 
Thanks again for your help
