I'm trying to find info regarding my father's family who lived in the Kenton, Gosforth, Northumberland area at the turn of the century. Father - John, Mother - Sarah, Children - James, Agnes, Edward (b.1907)and John, may be others but I don't have names. Appreciate any info. Thanks.

On the 1901 census I found two John gurkins aged 29 and 4 respectively, born Newcastle, living Northumberland, he was a Labourer Brick, but no sign of Sarah or Agnes. Unfortunately I don't have any credits left, so I couldn't open it up to have a proper look. Hope this is some help anyway. Jan.
