Can anyone help . ANNIE THOMPSON was the daughter of JANE THOMPSON.She was born in PHILADELPHIA,DURHAM we think 1874.ANNIE and JANE cannot be found on 1881census.JANE THOMPSON may have died or got married but where was ANNIE THOMPSON.She appeared on the 1891census as ANNIE SCORER.JANE'S sister MARY ANN THOMPSON married JOHN SCORER and they adopted ANNIE as their own child .The only record we have of ANNIE is the 1891census and we know she married THOMAS ELTRINGHAM at GATESHEAD 1899.She died 1940 and was 65years old.JANE was daughter of FRANCIS THOMPSON and JANE NOBLE born about 1825 and 1828.JANE died before 1861census and FRANCIS died about 1865.JANE NOBLE had a brother ROBERT NOBLE.ROBERTand his wife ANN NOBLE were always there for the children after the mother died. I am doing this for a friend I met through Genes Reunited.Annie was her grandmother and would really like to know what happened and where she lived from birth until 1891census.I have told her how clever you all are out there and how I have been helped so don't let me down.
