I am looking for information for Arthur Thomas Houfe married Eliza Tweddall 1900 @ Thirsk, had one child there then moved into Bishop Auckland where rest of children where born. Eliza died 1926. I believe the same Arthur T Houfe remarried to a Margaret Knaggs 1926 @ Darlington can anyone confirm this please? They lived Shildon & Heighington areas. Are you researching same families or heard the story that Arthur might have been born in Germany? Did this Arthur reside at Bay Tree Road, Darlington?
I would be willing to share information, contact me intelligentwend@hotmail.com

• Hi
  I have just e-mailed you through Genes Reunited. Thompson Bainbridge Grey was by 4th great grandfather, but I think you'll find that Robert was Robert Palister Grey.
  Hope this helps
  Cheers

• Hi Sandy.I have traced part of my family tree with the surname Heighington.It appears the family originated in Sedgefield,Co Durham.The name moved onto Sowerby Bridge,West Yorkshire (near Halifax) and then onto Sheffield working in the steel industry.A lot of Heighingtons around the turn of the century moved over to Canada where a lot of Heighingtons are around Ontario.I have relations named Heighington over there.Unfortunatly my lap top was stolen recently with all the details, so I have to start again !!

I am trying to trace the plot where my grandmother is buried. It is I believe an unmarked grave but I would be interested to find out if there is a record somewhere~ for a visit I hope to make soon. Her name was Mary Jane Brown nee Middleton and was buried early March 1923.**

Hi~ I am researching my mothers family tree. She~ her mother and grandparents were all born in auckland st andrew parish and lived in eldon lane. Mums parents moved to Southampton when she was five. Her mum was Elizabeth Wilson and her grandfather John Wilson~ who I believe was a local councillor. She had an Uncle Joseph whose family I am hoping may still live in the area. They were Quakers. I would be delighted if anyone reading this recognises any of the names and can give me some information. Heres hoping!
