Hi
With regards to the Surtees family I wonder if any of you could possibly help me with my brick wall . I am trying to find any information with regards to the parents of Edward Surtees born circa 1780 . From census details it has him as a native of Lanchester and also of Ebchester . His wife was called Ann Durham born in Lamesley . Edward and Ann were married in Gateshead January 16th 1802. The family later lived at Rake House in Northumberland .
Here are the details of the baptisms of 2 of their children.Baptisms Tynemouth Christ Church:
John Surtees, born 27 Apr 1803, baptised 5 Jun 1803 1st son of Edward Surtees of High Chirton, labourer, native of Ebchester by his wife Ann Durham native of Lamesley
Mary Surtees, born 20 Oct 1804, baptised 14 Apr 1805 1st daur of Edward Surtees of Chirton, Brickmaker, native of Lanchester by his wife Ann Durham of Lamesley.
I have spent many years trying to find out the parentage of Edward but I just keep hitting brick walls . If anyone could help it would be appreciated.
regards
Richie
