Hi
I have managed to get a bit further back on this line;
William Chaters born Cramlington, bapt Cramlington 20 Oct 1833, parents William and Violet Chater. Cramlington St. Nicholas which is the most likely place for William's christening. I still need to find the actual record, but going by other information i have this is who I am looking for.
I now have found the marriage of parents and have a copy of parish record
marriage of William Chayter and Violet Addison in St Peter’s at Wallsend 25 May 1828. William died in 1841 and Violet remarried;
Violet Addison – Johnathan Nichol 1843 newcastle father Robert Addison. have church record
So now I am looking for Robert Addison, he staes he was a mariner in 1843 on Violets second marriage cert in 1841. I have been unable to find any record of him other than on this cert, any ideas would be welcome.
I am still trying to find William Chater (father) who may have been born Tynemouth, there are a lot of Chaters in that area at this time, 1800s. All other children were born in Tynemouth area.
Also the following:
1841 SEGHILL William age 7 Father died in 1841 before the census date.
