Hi Maree I found the marriage entry in the IGI, so the first thing I would try would be to go to LDS (Mormon) Family History Library and look at their microfilm of the All Saints Newcastle registers. At that date (1821), I think the parish record should include Fathers name and occupation, where they were living at the time. Also witnesses to the marriage. Its possible he was the Fenwick Pearson baptised in 1784 (making him nearly 40 when he married) at Newburn Northumberland to Robert and Ann Pearson. Fenwick seems like a family name, so I would try to follow up all the Fenwicks listed in the IGI. Di

I'm trying to find info on my ancestor Fenwick Pearson. All I know is that he married Ann Benson in Newcastle upon Tyne in 1821 and they had three children, William, Ann and Mary. They lived in Newcastle but Ann is shown on the 1841 census as a Widow and I was wondering how I could find out when and where Fenwick was born. Any help would be fantastic. Thanks, Marie xx
