Hi there
Just wondering if anyone could do a look up for me on -
Benjamin Pearson born approx 1891, I have a possible marriage for him in 1910, he is from Newcastle upon Tyne and I have a possible death for him in 1959. What I'm looking for is spouse and or any children ? Any help would be fantastic. Also his parents were Catherine Cowley and Benjamin Pearson senior.
Thanks in advance :) x

Yeah that looks like him, he has a sister Mary also forgot to mention sorry and also brothers John and Robert and Charles who are a bit elusive !
That looks like his mother as his father died in 1894.
Thank u x

Marie, you have started another thread asking for a lookup for Bernard's birth. If you don't have his birth cert, how do you know his mother's name?

Marie Report 2 Sep 2012 14:03

Because I have Benjamin and his family on 1901 census.

He is noted as 11 months old on the 1891 census so he would be born in June quarter 1890

I can only find this one

Births Jun 1890 (>99%)
Pearson Benjamin Hewitt Newcastle T. 10b 22

So the original Benjamin born in 1875 dies in 1888. and Benjamin Hewitt I posted is also wrong as he dies in the same year as his birth

Deaths Sep 1888 (>99%)
Pearson Benjamin 14 Newcastle T. 10b 19
Deaths Sep 1890 (>99%)
Pearson Benjamin Hewitt 0 Newcastle T. 10b 40
