Who did he marry?

You say "reputedly born in Newcastle"  Is he on any census confirming his birthplace?

Hi CaroleW, on the 1881 Census he is down as born in Scotland, but his family say it was Newcastle, his Son Benjamin was born in Newcastle in 1851. His wife is named as Annie born 1816, but that must surely be wrong, either that or the marriage wasn't in 1825.

William's birthplace is shown as "do" and the previous entry states "unk" = unknown

Transcriptions and NBI are merely finding aids.  They are NOT a substitute for original record entries.
Remember - "They'll be found when they want to be found" !!!

Not sure about the 1861/1871 Census now as that Benjamin may have married as Killbanks 1871 Northumberland.
