Find Ancestors

Am trying to find information about John Thomas Dixon and his wife Margaret Ann (nee Muir). Both born around 1877 and Margaret definitely born Blaydon, Durham. Know they are on 1901 census as married in 1899 , registered Gateshead. Have spent hours searching 1901 census but cannot find them. They had one son Frank, possibly born 1901 Gateshead who married Harriet Unknown. Cannot find any marriage between Frank and a Harriet after long search of marriage records. Did she use her second name. Similarly they had a son Frank, no idea when born who married Audrey Unknown and I cannot find that either. Any help, particularly 1901 census result would be greatly appreciated.
Regards, Pat

Many thanks for that Helen. It could be a breakthrough as I had not considerd Frank being a Francis. Now know John Thomas born in Yorkshire, wherever Calton is! Thanks again, Pat

Thanks again to all. Was told son was Frank by my cousin who is from that part of the family so again did not consider Francis. Thanks for that Dea. Will look that one up! Pat

Are you sure Margaret was a Muir before marriage?

Hi Mel,
Yes, definitely. Believe parents to be Andrew and Margaret Muir and siblings Elizabeth, Mary, Caroline, Euphemia May and Andrew. All siblings appear to be born Blaydon. Pat

Yes found it now!! Silly me.........................
