Good girl!! lol x

I've submitted a correction to Ancestry, I've called it an "alternative". It will help others looking for the same family.

Coming back to Jane Ann Atkinson and Margaret Coatsworth 1891 census:

Where are their husbands? Both married, I presume Jane lived there and Margaret was visiting.
They probably didn't have children by then either

Here's Margaret and Thomas in 1901:

COATSWORTH, Thos Head Married M 43 1858 Seaman Middleton in Teesdale
COATSWORTH, Margaret Wife Married F 39 1862 Office Caretaker Sunderland Durham

Registration District: Sunderland
Sub District: North Bishop Wearmouth
Enumeration District: 2
Ecclesiastical Parish: St Peters
Civil Parish: Sunderland

Address: 20, Bridge Street West Side, Sunderland County: Durham

Can't see him in 1891 but as he's a seaman he may have been away.

thanks for that! Yes, thought about that too. Probably thomas atkinson was also at sea

Jane Ann died 19 Nov 1891, 9 Herrington Street


Sister Margaret died 1909, husband Thomas Coatsworth 1927

In case you don't have it.....

Thanks, I had that, but didn't know of the child

This must be John William Coatsworth Dec 1889 - Sep 1890

Chris, do you have Jane Ann's death certificate to see who the informant was, or is this from family records?

I have the information from Durham Records Online:

Burials, Sunderland District - Record Number: 470789.2
Location: Bishopwearmouth
Cemetery: Bishopwearmouth Cemetery
Denomination: any
21 Nov 1891 Jane Ann Atkinson, of 9 Herrington Street, age: 35, wife of Thomas Atkinson (mariner)

Jane Ann's husband remains a mystery, as they married in Birkenhead (civil marriage) Thomas may have been born there (found record 1860)
