Hi Ozibird
Thank you for the information I was told that my gr grandfather was a railway worker from beckermet so the information you gave is correct thank so much
regards Angela

If you buy George Pearson Robinson's birth cert you'll get Sarah's maiden name. If you buy her marriage cert to George Pearson you should get her maiden name and her father's name & occupation.

Looking at Sarah's place of birth - 1851 - Hale, 1861 - Faile (widow & school mistress), 1871 - Halle (school mistress (mixed school) ), 1881 - Haile (formerly school teacher) I believe she was born in Haile which is only about 3 km from Beckermet.

Hi Ozibird
Can you tell me when Sarah and John Robinson got married and also when Joh n died ive been trying to find the marriage but cant go back further than 1837 .
Regards Angela

See my idea of Sarah's birthplace in my last post. However I've found no marriage on IGI.

With John Robinson being a very common name it is difficult. It looks like James may be the last of his children by Sarah. Either or neither of the two deaths below could be John's death as it looks as if James was born 1836 or early 1837. Therefore James may have died before registration.

Deaths Sep 1837
ROBINSON John Ulverston 25 113
Deaths Dec 1838
ROBINSON John Ulverstone 25 127

Hi Ozibird
I Understand ts difficult as its a common name. From the informaton given Ive plotted the famiy from 1851until 1891 Do you have acess to 1911 census. Ive got Thomasborn 1829 married to Eleanor Taylor in 1891 they Have Thomas, Henry, Margaret Eleanor , Edith as the children living in 37
Raglan Street Barrow . Regards Angela

i would guess this is the 1837 death (Kirby Ireleth is Ulverston district)

Burial: 20 Sep 1837 St Cuthbert, Kirkby Ireleth, Lancashire, England
John Robinson -
Age: 33
Abode: Chapels
Buried by: C Graham, Vicar
Register: Burials 1813 - 1838 from the Bishop's Transcripts, Page 71, Entry 565

and the 1838 one (coniston also ulverston district)

Burial: 22 Nov 1838 St Andrew, Coniston, Lancashire, England
John Robinson -
Age: 7 mth
Abode: Forge
Buried by: J W Harden
Register: Bishops Transcripts Burials 1813 - 1859, Page 36, Entry 287
Source: LDS Film 1040311

you don't need to buy a birth cert for George Pearson Ronbison's mother maiden name. I gave it you above as recorded on cumbriabmd - = Eccleston

also probable siblings Robert, Sarah & Thomas

James' baptism - abode matches the 1837 death of John age 33

Hi Lancashire Ann
Thank you for the surname of Sarah sorry I must be thick thought that it was the place Eccleston. I am a pensioner that my excuse anyway thanks for the info on the children of Sarah and John I only had Thomas who was bornin 1829 .Do you know hen and where they were married. I know John and Sarah wee born abt 1808 . Alsodo you have access to th 1911 census. I would like to know wher the family where living I suspect they could have still been in Raglan Street. Thanks for your help Angela

Sorry I do not have any access to census info

the sites I used to find the info I gave you were

lan-opc.org.uk

and

cumbriabmd.org.uk

which is a new site which at the moment only covers Barrow but most birth entries provide mother's maiden name

I can see why if you are not used to the bmd sites, you could think the Eccleston was a place name as there are a few around with that name

Hi Lancashire Ann
Thanks for your reply im signing off now im tired
Thank Again Angela
