Pallen, somewhere in NE England/Canada

[Annie65115]

John Pallen d 1849 in London and in his will mentions his property "in the village of Norham in the county of Durham". He also mentions his brother William and various of William's family.

Another John Pallen, also a tailor, d 1832 in Norham and left his effects to his wife Margaret and to his son John, tailor, in London.

It seems fair to assume that the second was the father of the first and of William.

But where is/was Norham? And can anyone help me find any trace of John snr and Margaret's marraige, or of John jnr or William's birth? I've found John jnr in the 1841 census in Norfolk St, Marylebone (his address as per the older one's will); no age is given and he was born out of county. William had emigrated to Canada by then so I have no further info on him.

There are of course other possible spellings of "Pallen"!

Thanks for any help!

Could this be the Norham you are looking for?

Unsure what is covered, but it may come in handy for other family members.

Thanks folks!

I know of William Pallen's and Elizabeth Skym's marraiges and of their offspring in Canada, although I haven't followed the Canadian line further as Peter Pallen is the direct line ancestor I'vve been looking at. He seems to be the only one of that generation who didn't emigrate to Canada, and also the only one who wasn't left a bequest in his uncle John's will!

Thanks for the Genuki ref; on there was a link to graveyard memorials and I think I've found the family, but listed as PAULIN.
