Hi Maureen, Thanks for your offer but you seem to be inundated. If you have the opportunity, I would like you to look for Mary Ann Foster b 1811 Durham, Gateshead. Regards Jean Dear Maureen, I have had a further look at the census' and think that MaryAnn was in fact born 2 years earlier in 1809. She has a sister Hannah (age 1861 census 49: age 1871 census 60) so possibly spring birth!!! I am looking for the names of their parents. Regards Jean

Hi Maureen Many thanks for this generous offer. If possible could you look for the marriage of JOHN REED and MARGARET BONE 19 December 1813 in Monkwearmouth probably St. Peter's church. Susan

Thank you ever so much for the information, its much appreciated, its another piece of his life jigsaw. Just got to see what new clues his marriage cert offers when it comes.

Hi Maureen thanks for the extra information, which I agree must be the likely assumption that he was buried at St Andrews. thanks again Angela

Thanks for looking Maureen. I don't think this is the family I'm looking for but I'll keep a record - you never know! Regards, Janice.

Hi Maureen Thanks. There are a couple of possibles on the IGI but both a bit younger than Ive estimated, will have to find his death and see what age that gives me. Hope you get somewhere with yours soon. Jacqui
