Mark, you're getting bombarded with info & becoming confused. You need to cut and paste it in chronological order. You can do this either electronically into something like Notepad, or print out this thread, then do it physically.

I gave you George Mowatt & Margaret Jane Ellison's marriage index reference and the 1901 census in my post of yesterday 20:21

Ozi

It's 1871. Finding a positive hit for his birth is proving a problem. I checked Ada his sister and she was registered South Shields as Ada Ellison Mowat so you would think that Thomas would be the same. The only option is the one posted by Andrew which was registered in Tynemouth. There could have been a reason for it but you won't know if it's him or not unless you risk £7 and order it.

astra your a star thanks ever so much. thats helped me loads thanks

Ive still got to try and find thomas ellison mowats date of birth still ?

Many thanks indeed your a absoulte star x

sorry forgot to ask what year was the above census from?

Don't worry about it Mark it was when I was trying to match the names you listed. Margartet Jane Ellison had a brother called Thomas. I will delete it to avoid confusion

It seems that Laura,Stephen, Elizabeth and Sarah etc. the children of Thomas Mowat were cousins to your family. Thomas their father being the brother of George your Thomas's father.

This would appear to be them as young men with their parents

+ George MOWATT

+ Register: C G4
+ Entry: 260
+ Date: 15/10/1882

[CG was the register for Holy Trinity]

in 1891 it shows

George Mowat 28
Margaret Jane Mowat 26
Frances Mowat 9
George Mowat 5
Mary Mowat 5/12
Jane Ann Cooper Mowat 2

so that would fit in with another scribble with Thamas Ellision Mowat being born about 1893 however cant find any of them in the 1901 census?

However now confused about the above post which says thomas ellison mowat was margret janes sister?

This is the family that has all of the people you listed,

ah so we think that the spelling mistake is not only with the middle name appearing as A instead of E but now with the surname (did they not have spell checkers lol )
