Thank you Julie!

That is very kind.

I imagine that people at address in that area then where not there for very long - when the rent money ran out, I suspect it was often a moonlight flit. I could be wrong and would love to discuss further really.

I've checked 19 Washington Street, Middlesbrough, ( given as 1916 address ) on the 1911 census... a slim chance of the family being there then , but no joy, sorry - occupants are a family of Daltons.

Sorry Peter, I can't see any of them either :-(

Me too - tis very strange. Maybe they were on the run. Thank you Catherine for looking into this for me. And yes, Isabella was married twice.

And Choccy - thank you for finding Arthur. This is really kind and much appreciated.

May I ask for any sign of Henry or James?

Thank you

Sorry Peter,
I've looked and looked, but can't find any of them :-S

Isabella's maiden name was Pattinson/Pattison

Peter, the Lavinia Cowan that was born in 1911 Middlesbrough has mother's maiden name Pattinson, not Broomfield?

Hi Choccy - so Arthur emmigrated to Canada?! Is this correct? Wow, not seen this before.

I'm from Middlesbrough so always interested to search this area so will keep looking., but not having much luck Peter, sorry!

Thank you - Jax, didn't know that. Thank you. But I have looked on the ancestry library version for this family before, so I won't say 'no' to other eyes.

Cheers,

Hi Catherine - thank you. Initially, I suspect not, but that is a hunch. I am not sure - is her husband present? 'My' aunt Isabella married in 1904, not 1899 ... hmmmm.

...........this one is noted as being married for 12 yrs. No children!

Hmmm I wonder if it was some kind of reform school - no sign of the others?

I thought Salome would be easy if nothing else.
