Hi,

You are all too quick for me!!

As soon as I've posted a reply, there are more replies from you!!

It seems clear to me now that Mary Jane Robinson marr John Newton 1881 Cockermouth. They had one daughter Catherine Newton b1882 Cockermouth. Mary Jane also died in 1882 Cockermouth. Catherine lived with her paternal grandmother Catherine Burgess 1891 & 1901. She then lived with her maternal grandmother Mary Robinson in 1911.

Thanks very much for your help,

Gillian

No I think I will rule out the family in 1891, 1901 and 1911 as she married Isaac Thompson as Jane Newton

If the 1854 marriage is a first marriage for Catherine, then this could be the death of her first husband:-

NEWTON William Cockermouth 10b 313


John Newton's birth cert. would confirm if William was his father, or not!

I was worried that Jane Newton on the later census is born later than the poster suggested.

Oh well see what they think of it all

Catherine

Catherine Report 7 Feb 2012 14:55

This would seem to confirm that John's father could very well be William!

Gosh I can't keep up!

You have certainly worked out all the extra marriages which has confused the story!

Thanks very much for your help with this family!

Thanks Reggie I missed the second marriage of John Newton.

But it does match with the Barwise on the 1901 census
