Hello All If anyone while checking the parish Records come's across the following Baptism would they please let me know as I cant find his Birth Registration or Baptism, I have had all the John Robson Birth Registrations checked from 1837 to 1841 but he is not there. John Robson born 1839/40 Parents John Robson & Eleanor Urwin. his siblings were Robert born Newcastle 1827 Jane born Newcastle 1829 Mary Ann born Norton Co Durham 1831 Elizabeth born Norton 1833 Douglas Born Newcastle 1835 I have all the above Baptisms of his siblings in 1841 the family lived at Hetton-Le-Hole John was aged 1, John had a sister Margaret born Oct 1841 in Hetton, her Birth is registered. in 1843 Armstrong was born in Hetton I also have his Birth Reg, 1846 Richard was born and died in 1846 his Birth and Death are Registered, both Armstrong and Richard were baptised together in July 1846 at Hetton, as well as not having Johns Baptism I also do not have Margarets it could be they were Baptised together in another Parish, as surely they would have been Baptised with Armstrong and Richard. in 1851 the family are living in Sunderland at Neasham Sq John is aged 11 born Sunderland I have checked the Baptisms he is not there. John married Eleanor Ann Hall in Jan 1860 in Sunderland, he Lived in Sussex St on the 1861 Census and says he was born in Bishopwearmouth. John Died in May1865 age 26. John is my direct Line his Birthdate and Baptism is a Brickwall. And not being able to find a birth reg or baptism I cannot prove I have the right family. Maybe someone has an idea on this.

Alan- Just a thought.... If you lay this query out a bit more clearly e.g. in sections or paragraphs, with surnames in capitals, people may be able to read it. That way, you're more likely to get some help. Good luck with your search! Bx
