Alexander's parents were George and Mary, but his brother William is not the one who married Isabella.:

Thanks for the suggestion, Alviegal.

She doesn't have a middle name at birth or any census record to 1901.

But that's interesting - I'll bear it in mind. Haven't checked yet, but maybe Alexander is a relation of the William Urwin who married Isabella.

Don't suppose Emma had a middle name?

Many thanks for that, Chris. Excellent!

I had been hunting for Isabella and her sister Emma.
Still haven't found Emma (1885 Gateshead) after 1901, but I can stop looking for Isabella now.

In case anyone feels like looking for Emma, this is NOT her:

I've been wondering about this, but haven't been able to match up Emma with either Lowery or Yorke. [EDIT: Wrong Emma - see next post,]
Theresa married John Turnbull.

Wow! Many thanks for all that, everyone!

Wonderful transcription in 1881 - and making Amelia male.
I love the "Not living with husband" as part of the occupation in 1911.

At least she had a family to live with, as did Jane, whereas Robert ended up with nothing.


Another mystery solved - thanks to all.

Amelia now a widow even though Robert has been found in Newcastle stating he was single.

Here's the 1881 for William and Amelia, I think AG. Are you still looking for this? There is something written besides Son for William but am not sure what it is? Lod??

Ah! Interesting, Choccy - thanks!

So if that's the case, it looks as if Jane was just saying she was married (as has already been suggested), and perhaps also Amelia was saying she was, in 1891, when maybe she and Robert were separated. By that time Jane had also separated from him, as she was calling herself Lovell again.

Wish I could find Amelia and son William in 1881, to see what she claims then.


As Robert was in the workhouse in 1881, it looks as if he'd left Amelia, or been kicked out.
