Help needed with place names

Okay, so I looked. It appears to be a family called Hardy

Piece 5136 Folio 87 Page 4

and yes, the place is Reaveley

Can you give us the census ref or the name and age of one of the people on this return so we can go look?

Wherever you got the image from, on the transcription page it will give the census ref. We would need the Piece number , Folio, page details

The reference number on the bottom of the image (downloaded from ancestry) is RG11/5136 and the people I am interested in are:
Ann Hardy, widow, aged 39.
William Hardy, aged 20.
Andrew Hardy, aged 17.
Elizabeth Hardy, aged 11.
Margaret Hardy, aged 9.

Sarah Glass appears to be a sister to Ann Hardy, but the enumerator has struck his lines through both her age and her place of birth, so I can't read that information. She was a char woman.

It might be Etal Lane House (that is how it has been transcribed in 1881 and 1891) Other censuses give her place of birth as Ford. Etal is in Ford parish.

1871 Piece 5171 Folio 76 page 21
in West Weetwood, Chatton

William Hardy, 30 born Ford
Ann Hardy , 30, born  Tweedmouth
William G Hardy, 10, born Lowick
Andrew Hardy, 7, born Lowick
Elizabeth Hardy, 1, born Chatton
Sarah Glass, 38, born Ford

Marriages 1869, Q1, Glendale
William Hardy and Sarah Glass

1861Piece 3891, Folio 60, Page 3
at Holburn, Lowick
Ann Glass , Unmarried, 20, born Tweedmouth is daughter to h of h
William Glass, 5months, born Northumberland, Lowick is grandson to h of h

So, Holburn, parish of Lowick is the correct birth place for William. I would venture a guess that his middle initial on the 1881 census is G for Glass as he was born prior to their marriage (William Hardy may or may not have been his father, who knows?)


Andrew seems to have been born Lowick

Elizabeth born in West Weetwood

As for Ann, I know there was a place called Murton Square in Tweedmouth  it was in the 'township of Orde, within the parish of Tweedmouth' I think, but am not certain, there was also Murton nearby.Neither of these would be big enough to be villages, more hamlets really.

Hello, I have just seen your post re place names. I have come across this family regularly in my searches as their forenames are very similar to those of my own GLASS family. They lived in several of the same places as mine and moved frequently after the annual hirings as was the tradition up here. I live near these places. I have quite a bit of info re Thomas,s (born 1801c) ancestry if you are interested. Ann Glass had 2 children before she married William  Hardy. They then appeared to use Glass as a middle name.

Have you worked out the place names by now? If not I can make suggestions.

I'm drowning in Hardys and Bells................this is my husband's family tree, which I am " trying " to build for him.
Myself, being Scottish, have no idea where any of the places are in Northumberland, so I'm just blundering on, I don't even know if I'm on the correct family track sometimes.
I've been searching through my tree, and can't see a Thomas Hardy, born 1801, and wonder where he fits in.
Any information you are willing to share with me will be VERY much appreciated.

THomas Glass not Hardy was Ann,s father. I first came across Ann when I started researching my ancestors in the early 1970"s. I started young and have been obsessed ever since!! I was re Roding all the GLASS references From the indexes at Berwick Register Office in the days when they allowed you to do this. I remember the details for one of Ann.s children as it stated that he was born in either Lowick or Holborn Forest which sounded rather primitive!

I will try to have a look at my notes over the weekend and get back to you.

There's a village called West Woodburn in NW Northumberland.
The "R...." place could be Rothbury? That's in a similar area.
