He was a bootmaker who was in Newcastle upon Tyne by 1871.He married Jemima Smailes in 1882. My grandfather is his eldest son Thomas James Wightman,also born Newcastle,in 1882, and who emmigrated to QLD Aust in 1911.

Thanks to, choirman and Ericthered for your kind answers to my post.
I did already have this info as I have access to the census.
What I am after is if anyone can shed light on, or help me with any of the these people as individuals. ie births, marriages, deaths, children, for all.
I am a long way from UK records offices in Aust,
so if anybody knows anyone, it might help.
Cheers, Ross.

freebmd has civil registration index up to about 1924............and Ancestry has it to 2005

As you see from the census info...the relevant district is Glendale.....assuming they remained in Woooler

I have a William Wightman born 27 August 1808 in Wooler.He married Mary Cosser.Is this the one you are looking for?
