I'm hoping someone may be able to help, however I have very little info! I'm trying to find information pertaining to my great grandfather's family.
This is what I do know:
My great grandfather was named Andrew Robinson (c.1889-1928) (He marrried Ann Lumsden - c.1899-1942)
His parents names were George Watson? Robinson and Jane (I don't know her maiden name)
In addition to Andrew, they also had 4 other children, named George, Jack, Mary and Sally ( I think they were all born early 1890's?)
I know very little about this side of my family, which makes this so difficult to trace!
Please contact me if you have anything that may help me!!
Thank you! Michelle

Where did you get your info from, Michelle? Was it from a census?
|
No, it wasn't a census, it was information that I have been able to piece together from my grandmother, before she passed away, as well as from a distant relative, remembering bits and pieces.
|
Thank-you Nerine!
I wasn't sure if that was where Andrew and his parents were from,
I knew that my grandmother and her siblings were born in Hetton le Hole, County Durham.
What does 10a23 mean?

Okay, that's great to know, thanks again Nerine!
