Find Ancestors

Hi everyone,

I am struggling a bit trying to figure out my great great grandmother. Her name was Coralinda Yarham (mis spelt in every record I have located so far!) Born in 1869 in Norfolk, she had her first child Joseph Woodhouse around 1890 - she went on to have 9 other children, but only 2 are recorded under the name of Woodhouse. In the 1901 Census she is recorded as Coralinda Curtis - Married to a John William Curtis. William Curtis and Fred Curtis both born in Newcastle between 1899 and 1901, but her marriage record states that she did not marry John Curtis until 1907 which seems very odd.

I cannot locate her first marriage record at all - I do not know his first name but assume if the children are Woodhouse this must have been his surname.

I have found a record of a Corliodia Yarham marrying in Newcastle in 1886 that I assume is my GG Grandmother, but the other men appearing on the page (Robert Younger and William Bambrick) Do not add up?

Anyone fancy helping me unravel the mystery - I would be very grateful for any info anyone more experienced than myself could offer!

Katie

Not unusual to be on a census as if married altho the marriage didnt take place till much later ,if at all!!.
What is her status on the marriage cert of 1907 and what name did she marry under?

Any good?

FAIRHURST Sarah Jane Newcastle T 10b 82
***Yarham Corliodia Blanche E E Newcastle T 10b 82
Younger Robert Newcastle T 10b 82

for reference:-
Births Jun 1869 (>99%)
Yarham Coralinda Blanche E E Erpingham 4b 60
The district Erpingham is in the county of Norfolk

In 1907 She Marries John William Curtis as Corlinda Woodhouse - But I can't figure out when she became a Woodhouse

Dea that is definitely her - her name was Coralinda Blanche Elizabeth Ellen Yarham - So she marries Robert Younger in 1886 and then in 1890 has a son Joseph Woodhouse...wonder what happened the the first hubby?

Is this her in 1871:-

John Yarham 5
Mary Yarham 28

Sounds like it could well be Catherine - Especially as the mothers name is Ellen and that was one of her middle names - And I know that she was born in Norfolk

The only thing that I can find is her birth.
Coralinda Blanch E.E. Yarham, June quarter 1869, Erpingham. (4b 60)

1891 (image is Yarham)
Corrie Garham 21, Beston, Norfolk
Jane E Garham 2
Joseph Woodhouse 7 (image is 7 months) step-son, born Jarrow
Maybe she "inherited" Joseph from her husbands previous marriage

Is this her on the 1901

OOo that's interesting, where did you find that Seaham Lass?

I got it from ancestry.co.uk
Corialinda states that she's married and works as a fruiterer but of course no man about the house...big help that is !!!

On the 1891 census Joseph Woodhouse age 7 months was originally listed as stepson but step has been crossed out!

No !!! - She married William Bambrick NOT Robert Younger !! (1886)

This could be the birth for the Joseph Woodhouse in 1891 census.
Births Dec 1890 (>99%)
Woodhouse Joseph Bewick S. Shields 10a 775
South Shields is the registration district for Jarrow.
The certificate will give his parents names.

Interesting to note that Mary Woodhouse in 1901 census was born in London?:-

Mary Woodhouse 10 b Millwall London
on ancestry place of birth is noted as:- born: Millweally, London

Looked for a death for a ? Woodhouse, possible husband and found this:-

Deaths Sep 1897 (>99%)
Woodhouse Joseph Bewick 41 S. Shields 10a 433
which would make date of birth 1856.

Name fits with Joseph Woodhouse born in 1890 living with Coralinda

I know this is not proven yet, but this is Joseph Bewick in 1881:-
