Hello,hoping someone can help me? I'm looking for info on an Edwards family based in Backworth near Shiremoor,Northumberland,possibly from about 1875 into the 1900's.The 4 girls were named Mary Jane, Sarah, Hannah and Pheby/Phoebe,which is confirmed from my mum's recollections,and I think their parents names were Charles Edwards and Ann,as yet no maiden name for Ann.I seem to be getting conflicting info from census returns as to the actual birthplace of Charles Edwards senior.Most of the males in this branch of the family were coalminers,so I'm wondering if they moved around to different collieries.Mary Jane married into the Fenwick family and Sarah married into the Strong family,also based in Backworth,and it's from this line that my mum comes from. Any info concerning either descendents or ancestors would be much appreciated. Thanks,Karen |
