Not too sure about that  That birth might well tie up with this baptism http://www.rootschat.com/links/01gsb/  -  in which case the parents names are William and Jane

I haven't got a birth for their apparent son, George Calvert, although he is listed as 14 in 1851 census.

The free index to Durham Records Online is showing the baptism of a George Calvert in 1837 in South Shields district, parents George and Elizabeth 

[josey]

Yes, sorry JenB - I should have scored through that baptism when I did the census record 

[JenB]

Possible baptism of George junior, Holy Trinity South Shields, 27 August 1837, parents George and Elizabeth. The record I've got doesn't state the father's occupation, but if you want you could get this from Durham Records Online (if you are willing to buy a few credits - it's pay per view  )
The Holy Trinity BT's don't start until 1840, so nothing to be gleaned for free there I'm afraid

OK - thanks for all assistance so far. Have purchased. George Calvert snr was a miner.

Location: South Shields
Church: Holy Trinity
Denomination: Anglican
27 Aug 1837 George Calvert of Temple Town, son of George (pitman) & Elizabeth Calvert

I will look at 1843 marriage address later - cert at home.

There's a death for a George Calvert in September quarter 1839, South Shields.

That ties up with a burial which shows on the free index of Durham Records Online - 1839, South Shields District, George Calvert aged 28 abode Temple Town.

Another site shows the date of burial as 30th June 1839.

Looks like George Calvert was killed in a major accident at St Hilda's Colliery South Shields.
There are lots of newspaper articles about it.
Also see here http://www.dmm.org.uk/individ0/i01152.htm . Scroll down for links to several other newspaper reports.

One newspaper article states he was married with one child.

How interesting! Many thanks JenB. Sounds particularly grim - although I suppose if it hadn't happened I wouldn't be here!
