=========================================================

On Ancestry a tree ( is it yours Peter ?) Has Mary's Parents as --

Thomas Pattison 1827-1905 and Bridget Melody 1835-

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

It also has Thomas married before Mary to Jane Magee with children

Mary Ann Welch --b1864
Thomas b1865
Ellen 1866
John1869


Then it looks as if Thomas went on to have a further 9 children with Mary

No nearer to finding A. Smith though :-(

You are right Catherine - thank you.

It could not be the correct one then if Mary was still alive in 1901!

Dea, I think this is your family in 1901:-

1901 England Census about Mary Lawson

Peter Welsh 14 - born: Scotland
James Welsh 13 - born: Scotland
John Lawson 13 -
Edward Welsh 12
Annie Welsh 8
Andrew Lawson 7

..............Mary remarried to James Lawson.

Peter

Who were Mary's parents?

Those are the details needed to start looking for her cousin....................

Find their names..............look for siblings...........find who the siblings married. If one of them married Smith........look for offspring of that marriage

You can do this yourself using freebmd - IF they lived etc in England

You haven't even said where Mary was born...........her place of death is of no real help in this quest.

NOR have you said how old she was when she died..............enlighten us, please.

I was looking at this family to fit the death cert??

Can you please confirm which we should be looking at Peter?

P.S. - If it IS this family - the marriage could have taken place in Scotland as the children were born there.

How sure are you of your information?

I could only find 2 possible marriages for a Welch to a female Pattison:-

Marriages Sep 1893 (>99%)
Goodwill Christiana Thirsk 9d 704
Pattison Henrietta Thirsk 9d 704
SIDDLE Joseph Thirsk 9d 704
Welch Arthur Thirsk 9d 704
and
Marriages Sep 1882 (>99%)
Eland Henry Durham 10a 479
Lamb Eleanor Durham 10a 479
Pattison Elizabeth Durham 10a 479
WELCH David Durham 10a 479

and I couldn't see any Mary Welch born abt. 1856 living in Middlesbrough?

However, I did find this, which would fit with the death record found by Dea:-

1881 England Census about Mary Welsh

.................is this the family?

I can't see her death registration unless it is this one (spelt WELSH) ??

Deaths Dec 1897
Welsh Mary 41 Middlesbro' 9d 353

Dea x

How old was she at death?

What was the address of the informant?

Does it give the name of her husband, Mr Welch?

A death cert doesn't usually give the maiden name of a married woman - so how do you know it was Pattison?

She was the step mother of my gggg grandmother ... and I suspected so! But still, thankyou for the help!

Peter

You'll have to research Mary Pattison's family....................

If the informant was a FIRST cousin (and you've no way of knowing).......one of his or her parents must have been a sibling to one of Mary's parents.

Peter, I can only suggest you trawl through all the Smiths in Middlesbrough. Sorry.

There are no Smiths at that address in 1901.

You say "step" ancestor - who was she "step" to?

OK, so this a very unusal request, even by my standards.

A death certificate has just been shared with me of my STEP ancestor Mary Welch - she died on 12 November 1897 at 143 Duncombe Street, Middlesbrough, Yorkshire.

Her informant was:

A. Smith
Cousin
Present at the death
29 Nile Street, Middlesbrough

Mary's maiden name was Pattison, and I am wanting to find out who her informant is.

Can you help?!

Peter
