Did the family have to move for a while due to work commitments?
Maybe you should work backwards very grandually (getting certificates etc) to discover if a connection came from Durham years beforehand.

What information have you got - you give no dates or names. If GGF was the first born it may well be mum went back toher mum for the first confinement. Do you have GGP's marriage certificate?
