Gallon train wreck

[bramhallbill]

So I'm looking into John Gallon b 1841 Felling Shore & his son Thomas in particular b 1866                          John was a Shipping Clerk then Shop keeper. He married Sarah Jane Robson 1862.
For John I have 1871, 1881,1891,1901 census & Thomas 1881,1891,1901,1911 ,1921.
Thomas is missing on the 1871 with John & Sarah Jane
1861 for John is a train wreck

Niece         
John aged 20 is a Shipping Clerk but it is as if the enumerator has made a weird error.
Also for 1871 Edward & Mary are listed as John's kids but no Thomas

Any help appreciated thanks

1871 - Thomas is easily found with his Robson grandparents.

Re the other children in 1861.  Check back to 1851 census then use GRO online to check for Gallon births with mmn Robson

No birthplaces shown in reply re 1861 above

1861 shows all older children were b Ireland as were parents Francis & Ann.  John aged 20 is the first b England.  Birth reg is on freebmd & GRO online shows mmn Purdom but Mary’s birth has mmn Urwin

[CaroleW]

Did you notice that John & Sarah married 1862 & on the same page is a marriage for Thomas Lowes. 

Edward & Mary are John’s children - use GRO online re mmn & see 1881 census

1861 shows all older children were b Ireland as were parents Francis & Ann.  John aged 20 is the first b England.  Birth reg is on freebmd & GRO online shows mmn Purdom but Mary’s birth has mmn Urwin

A quick look at the later census returns shows John Gallon  consistently says he was born c 1840 at Felling Shore.
That birth reg with mmn Purdom was in Q2 1842, so a little late plus it was registered in Durham & Lanchester which doesn't cover FellingShore.  https://www.ukbmd.org.uk/reg/districts/durham.html
I can't see a likely birth registration for him in Gateshead District (or anywhere else) but I did find a possible baptism and from there I think the following may be possible - though the confirmation would be what name and occupation of his father on the 1862 marriage certificate to Sarah Jane Robson. The census returns are transcripts only on FS, but the info will allow you to find them and get the images if you, or your library, have access to FindMyPast or Ancestry. I'd advise always looking at the images if possible as transcripts may be inaccurate.
NB this is just 'possible', you'd need to check it out carefully. I'm as capable of taking a wrong turn as anyone :-)

At John's baptism at Heworth, St Mary (as linked by Boo)
14 May 1840 John Gallon, of Felling Shore, son of Edward (paper maker) & Esther Gallon — so father Edward Gallon is a paper maker.

24 July 1875: Alston Herald and East Cumberland Advertiser

At Felling, at Brandling Terrace, 19th inst. aged 69, Mr Edward Gallon, paper maufacturer, much respected.

1871
Brandling Terrace, Heworth
*Richard Gallon, widower, 65, paper manufacturer, b Newcastle
plus his married daughter Mary (Hind), 26, Felling Shore (see Mary 1844 in Boo's list)
(plus Mary's husband and children)

transcribed Richard at FindMyPast, original unclear but I think Edward is a better fit.
transcribed Malard (!) at A*y


Newcastle-upon-Tyne,St. John 
22 Mar 1807 Edward Graling, born 29 Apr 1806, 3rd son of Simon Graling (papermaker, native of Costey, Norwich) by his wife Mary Mitchison (daughter of Thomas Mitchison, native of Simonburn parish, Northumberland) 

DRO has a note and annotations to the effect that they believe that this is Edward Gallon.

Note 1837 baptism linked by Boo for Edward's (first?) son, Simon.
