Hi lovely people.
I wondered if anyone could help me.
I am looking for possible birth records for a Martha Sweeting, born, Durham abt 1864-1872.
I have a marriage certificate for her, that states her father was called John Sweeting and in 1887 she was 18 (allegedly) when she married John Devlin in Middlesborough.
I cannot seem to source the correct census information/birth record for her early years.
The nearest I can find is a birth in 1870 and a census record for a Martha Sweeting living with a William and Martha Sweeting as her parents. This Martha has an older brother called John?
I know she died March Quarter of 1933, aged 62.
Any help in locating the correct records for her early years would be much appreciated?
I am struggling.
Many thanks
Sophie
