The two entries for 1871 are:
Margaret Hodgson d of Jonathan/Jane b abt 1867 in Gisborough, Yorkshire, England; living at Guisborough, Yorkshire
Margaret Jane Hodgson d of John/Dana b abt 1867 in Roxby, Yorkshire, England; living at Easington, Yorkshire
- the second does look more likely.

Ivy, that's great information thank you.
|
Thanks Ivy
Both James and John were married in Guisborough.... wondering if that could link them to the first Mary?
this is a tough one.... I agree the second one looks more likely but I will have to get the birth certs....

Hi Gavin, just logging off when I saw your note.
The registration district boundaries and names are not always co-incident with the nearest large town (for instance Ecclesall Bierlow). Guisborough registration district covers a larger area than the town itself. Genuki (see http://www.ukbmd.org.uk/genuki/reg/districts/guisborough.html) gives the sub-districts covered. The census entries will also specify the district and sub-districts, which is helpful when working from census to certificates. Both possible mothers' 1871 entries are located in the Guisborough registration district.

Actually, following mgnv's note regarding the local bmd (Tees Valley), I think I saw that both women married in 1884 - if you check for the two husbands, then it might be the case that the other one is resident in 1891 or later with an aged parent? Apologies, no time for me to look this evening.

I tend to go along with Ivy - here's our choice for 1881:
1881 Household: Name Relation Marital Status Gender Age Birthplace Occupation Disability John HODGSON Head M Female 53 Roxby, York, England Gardener Diana HODGSON Wife M Female 38 Loftus, York, England Margaret J.

looking for information on James William Shepherd..b1860ish
|
Gavin, born where? What else do you know about him?
|
Have you done anything about looking for info yourself?
|
Given that your other Shepherds are Guisborough, could this be him?
England & Wales, FreeBMD Death Index, 1837-1915
Name: James William Shepherd Estimated Birth Year: abt 1860 Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1891 Age at Death: 31 Registration district: Guisborough Inferred County: Yorkshire North Riding Volume: 9d Page: 342
You've twice been given the link for FreeBMD so you could easily have found this.
|
Apologies My efforts have been on another thread recently..... just re-activating this one and picking it up again...... you beat me too it
|
So far, I have certificates to prove the following;
My Maternal Grandfather was 'Stanley James Shepherd'
b1917 in Loftus, Guisborough (19th Nov 1917), I only have the small cert which doesnt name the parents. However, I have his marriage certificate;
m1944 in Port Clarance, Billingham, County Durham (19th February 1944) 26 years old, bachelor. Farm Labourer. Father named as 'James Edwin Shepherd', Electrician for the Electric Company. Wife to be - Rose McKie, 21 years old, Spinster, Munitions Worker / Domestic Servant. Her father is listed as William McKie, Docker.
Stanley's death certificate shows as follows;
d2002 in University Hospital of North Tees, Stockton On-Tees (03rd March 2002) Stroke & Alzheimers Disease
He died a widow (Rose had died in Feb 1979 - I have that cert too)
|
so far I have the following information from my efforts this weekend... just need to verify.
I have ordered the wedding certificate of his mother and father (James Edwin Shepherd & Edith Annie Smith), so i can confirm their parents and will work backwards by ordering each marriage cert if it matches my information below;

I know this is a very long shot as this thread was last used in 2012 but I'm hoping Gavin will get this message. I've been searching for some time who I believe you are related to. His name is Alan Shepherd who is mentioned at the beginning and all the info I have on home matches yours. I'm hoping you get this and reply. Thank you in advance

Welcome to the boards damian.
You've noticed that the thread is a few years old now - Gavin is probably not looking for replies now.
Try clicking on his name, you can then send a personal message through the GR system. If he still has the same email address he registered with GR they can let him know there is a message waiting for him.
Whether he gets it or not or replies is another matter.

Thank you Greyghost I've just messaged him so fingers crossed
