I have thought he was Ellen's son, but she actually gave birth to a John Key the same year so had to discount that idea! Where did you get Ellen from? I tend to think Albert may have been the son of Ellen's sister, Annie, however she would have only be about 14 at the time, not impossible I know. Ellen married John's father (she was 15) but seemed to dump them both some time later. I have got a lot of information about her and John. Albert is the mystery!

These are the only Albert births for those 2 quarters in Carlisle.

Do any of these surnames ring a bell?

Do you think he's Ellen's son?

I`d say at a guess that he either wasn`t registered or was registered under a different surname..

A quick check on freeBMD shows no Albert Edward births registered in Carlisle between 1st Oct 1887 and 31st March 1888.

I have one Albert Edward Pattinson, born Carlisle 22 November 1887. He appears in the subsequent census records until 1901. By 1911 he was living here in New Zealand. He was supposedly the son of Hannah Pattinson, but I think she was really his grandmother. I have been to Carlisle to get his birth certificate, but there was no record of the birth. He was brought up in Whitehaven and I have all that information. Why would he not have a birth certificate and how could he have got a passport? I have tried in vain to get the record - can anyone help?? Janet Smith
