Just logged on to see developments, well done everyone! I thought "our Mary" may be "Hilda"...........I suppose if she was of an age as to know her own name when she was taken in by the other family, you would not change it would you.

Jim will be doing cartwheels tonight!

It's definately been very interesting thread, hopefully the birth cert for Hilda Park will show the correct birth date? until then it is all speculation.

I'm not sure that we would find a family connection to the Pegg, Banks or Noble family..... just a gut feeling, and as for the remarriage of Mary Jane Park/Craggs........ I haven't found a death for William Park, however he may not have survived WW1 and this maybe the reason that the daughter Hilda was given up for "adoption"? again all speculation

I think that Mary Jane Craggs who married William Park may have remarried;

So Looking at the births the one that Seaham Lass found which Janey confirmed for Hilda Parks mother Craggs registered September 1914 is looking more likely now.

here's John Peggs WW1 record, it confirms jane Isabella Noble as his wife and more importantly it states a daughter; Hilda PARK born GATESHEAD 25.07.1914;

Dee, you've confused the * out of me.

I assumed you were talking about a Mary Noble who was a sister of Jane Noble.

But this person (note how I eliminate the bumph!)

Births Dec 1887
NOBLE Mary Isabella Gateshead 10a 851

isn't in Isabella's household pre-1911. We don't know she's Jane's sister -- ? A relation maybe, yes.

Well actually, pretty likely *not* Jane's sister -- since they both had middle name Isabella! But quite possibly related.


Edit -- aha, 'twasn't I who was confused then. ;)
I'm dead beat too, even thugh it's only 8 pm here. It's the heat. If it isn't the heat, it's the humidity.

These are all people worth taking looks at, I think.

Now hold on, Dee (and can't I persuade you to delete all the useless bumph from those census records??)

Mary Pegg was John Pegg's sister -- not his wife's sister. ;)

Both are candidates -- Mary Pegg and Mary Noble.

Janey & Ann, thanks for the info, it's just great, I never thought that when I posted my Thread that I would have had so much help from you all including Victoria. That is an interesting thought Janey about sister Mary Pegg, It just might have been Mary Pegg was her mother and not Mary Park was her name??.

Many thanks again off to bed now but I will be back tomorrow night

Jim.

Janey I don't want to blow your theory out of the water but Mary may have been born a Noble???
