Sorry for the delay

I'll look into this more The ancestry connection could be the same as the one I've seen It does seem to fit in the Hornsby - Hornby always transcribed wrong


Thank you for helping

Ancestry thinks Catherine Tulip and Kate are the same person - not necessarily correct.

The children of the marriage that had died before 1911 were Mary Elizabeth, Thomas William and Cecelia.

Has anyone found Catherine Tulip Laing in 1911 please?

I don't think that marriage is your Catherine. Here they are in 1939 and the birth year is wrong - unless of course she lied.

If the marriage is correct, she married as Laing so unlikely to be George's daughter. It might be worth getting the marriage certificate to see if she names a father and the witnesses may prove helpful.

The marriage is the wrong one it's Jessie Turnbull who George f married 1881

yes that is him as I said he married 3 times in 9yrs
The next is Elizabeth Smith in 1885 she died 1886
The 1890 he married Hannah Laing

Some one has Hannah with a ….….Tulip and they have that Kate is his?? that's why I wanted the 1891 census

There is this marriage which could be the parents of Kate (although I know the first names of George are different):-

First name(s) Edward George
Last name Hornby
Marriage quarter 2
Marriage year 1878

Edward George Hornby married one of these people

Then this census in 1881:-

George F Hornby Head Married Male 25 1856 Engine Fitter York, Yorkshire, England
Jessie J Hornby Wife Married Female 24 1857 - Hartlepool, Yorkshire, England<<<<<<<<<

The odd thing is that Jessie seems to have died in 1882. I wonder if George registered Kate's birth and unwittingly gave Jessie's maiden name instead of Hannah's????

Can't find them in 1891 census though.

EDIT - forget Jessie being the mother of Kate, I think this could be Kate's birth:-



Name: Mother's Maiden Surname:
LAING, CATHERINE TULIP
GRO Reference: 1889 S Quarter in SOUTH SHIELDS Volume 10A Page 787

No mother's maiden name given so she was illegitimate.

Kath. x

The only Kate Hornby I can find born at the right time (1889) is this one:-

Name: Mother's Maiden Surname:
HORNBY, KATE HANLEY Order
GRO Reference: 1889 D Quarter in GOOLE Volume 09C Page 764

Could George have been married previously?

Kath. x

Just looked at both censuses and they are in the same house for 1901 & 1911

She is with the family Hebburn Durham aged 12

Where is Kate in 1901 as I can't find her?

EDIT - found her now on Findmypast with family mistranscribed as Homly.
