Find Ancestors

Might be worth looking in the Electoral Rolls for the known addresses .....

If you're not in the area I'll look next time I'm in North Shields library, if I recall correctly there was one in 1910.

Morning MarieCeleste....How you doing ?

This fellow is driving me mad...!!

I am at a loss as to where to look next ...

Didn't know he'd lived on Park Rd.He'd obviously gone up in the world from living on Glovers Row and other than marrying "Nell" in Watford (1914) he doesn't appear to have strayed far from home..
The question remains where the devil was he in 1911...

Of course, the properties numbered higher than 113 Park Road may have been built after 1911 .....

Wards 1915/1916 has the following entry:

129 Park Road, Wallsend - Deary, T. Newsagent

ADDED: So far, I can only find up to no 113 on the 1911 census summary books (although part of the street might have been enumerated separately)

I was looking for someone recently where I know 100% for sure that a family lived at the same address from the 1880s to the 1920s. They lived above a music shop in North Shields - there is no sign of that family on the 1911. Checking the summary books showed that the premises had been recorded as just a shop with no occupants so it looks as though due to human error the family weren't included in the census. How many more times has this happened and could Thomas Deary be one of them?

Nudge up

Also:- in 1911 Laburnum Avenue, Wallsend was a Boarding House run by :-

STORAR, Joan Head Widow F 64 1847 Boarding House Keeper Edinburgh Resident

but no sign of Thomas
:-(

The shop in 1911 was a General Shop so they probably did sell Cheese:-

Thank You MC...Received News cutting...had fun reading all the news....!
So she nearly felled him with a lump of cheese did she...mind that poses a another query...because the "shop" was a newsagents and never sold anything else...the mystery deepens.

MarieCeleste...

No dont have anything re Thomas..there apparently was some Shenanigans went on within the family and the "Shop" was the cause of it all according to family history...The saga went on well into the 1970s...!!

Do you have the newspaper article from 1903 about Thomas being assaulted in his shop? If not, let me know and I'll forward it to you.

Thank You Catherine...
I had not considered the possibility that he may have enlisted pre 1911 Census..Glitter Baby (thank you) raised the question earlier...
He had an uncle and cousin who went out to Canada (Via NY) April 1907 and I considered he may have gone with them and returned at some stage however I cannot find evidence of him doing that either...he is rather an enigma as he left a small fortune when he died (Wallsend 1929)

I would appreciate if someone could try and locate a Thomas Deery (Spelling varies)
Born 1875 Wallsend Northumberland.
I have him on 1881/1891/1901 but cannot find him 1911...
I have all info re BMD and family but not this piece of the jigsaw.

Many thanks
