I wonder how you know that Robert married Alice Wintrip. The family that Margaret in Sussex has found appears to have a wife or senior female called Margaret, same in 1851. And it appears that Robert and Margaret married in 1836, so Thomas and Isabella could be from a previous marriage - but how do you know their mother was Alice?

It appears that Thomas and Isabella's mother was Margaret.

You say you can't find any trace of Robert and Alice other than the marriage so how have you got back to them in your tree?

Christine

Alice Wintrtip is the second daughter of my my 5xg grandfather william wintrip and his wife barbara rogerson i have her birth 22 nov 1794 in wooler her marriage 1 march 1827 and her probable death in 1868 age 74 also is wooler but i cant seem to find her anywhere else.

And there are so many wintrips in that area it makes it quite hard to be sure you have the right indviual. I have no less that 14 john wintrips in my tree and that is just the ones i have added so far!

This looks as if it's the Alice who died in 1868.

So Alice is not your direct relative? Therefore you don't know if she had any children with Robert that we can trace. Have we the right marriage of Robert and Margaret (1836) if children were born earlier to the pair? The Alice who died in 1868 is married to William Nesbit, not Robert. Not that I can find a marriage for the pair. She might be a totally different Alice.

Interesting that IGI has a William Noble Nesbitt marrying a Barbara in 1846 - only a submitted record, but could be a relative of Robert.

If Alice Wintrip/Nesbit died before 1830, there is no record of that that I can find.

Not sure what to suggest.
