Still looking for Charles Quinn/Quin b Bishop Auckland 1878 on 1901 census.
Fathers name is John Quinn occupation Stonemason on his marriage certificate. Marriage to Sarah Kelly 13 July 1896 in Gateshead states he is 22 which would give his birth as 1874

Would like to trace any relatives/ancestors
I have found a Charles Quinn with father John

Birth Date: 23 Apr 1877
Birth Place: Reylagh, Tyrone, Ireland
Father's Name: John Quinn

John McEnaney is witness to marriage of Charles Quinn and Sarah Kelly ?? I have the certificate

Any help would be appreciated

'Still looking' implies a previous post - what happened to it?

This is from the previous thread which mentioned yet another previous thread:

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/ancestors/thread/1278135

"Vivien already has the info re the quinns and i sent her printouts of the Scottish census etc,

Vivien you should have added this to your Quinn Thread so people dont look again for the background of the family that you already have."

Still relatively new at this so forgive me if I haven't added previous threads
