John Birkbeck, WES & DUR

  of 68

I have been trying hard to find the marriage of John Birkbeck to Hannah Hart which would have taken place in Co Durham, UK around the 1885 period.

John was born 10 Sept 1850 at Scout Green, Crosby Ravensworth, Westmorland, son of Robert Birkbeck and Catherine Jackson. Robert Birkbeck was born 1805 at Todd House, Brough, Westmorland, son of John Birkbeck and Margaret Pearson.

John Birkbeck is known to have had a previous marriage to Elizabeth Wade around 1865. They had three children (George B., John Wade B. & Catherine B.) before his (first) wife died 19 May 1879 at helmington Row, Co. Durham.

Some dates with ages and occupations are shown below for John Birkbeck :

10 Sept 1850, Scout Green, Crosby Ravensworth, Westmorland
31 Mar 1851 (6m), 19 High Scales, Birkbeck Fells, Westmorland, Crosby Ravensworth
8 April 1861 (10), Tebay, Westmorland, Scholar, Crosby
ca 1868 Crook (birth of George)
5 Sept 1875 (25), Job's Hill, Helmington Row, Coal miner
16 Sept 1877, Job's Hill, Helmington Row, Coal miner
19 May 1879, Job's Hill, Helmington Row
3 April 1881 (30), Durham Lane Helmington Row Crook, Coal miner, shows birth place as Tebay
8 Oct 1897, 72 Thomas Street, Craghead, Stone miner
13 Sept 1900, 72 Thomas Street, Craghead, Storeman at a colliery
31 Mar 1901 (50), Thomas Street, Craghead, shows birth place as Orton
4 June 1918, 4 Wagtail Terrace, Craghead, Coliery shifter
2 Dec 1921, 26 Pine Street, Grange Villa, Coal miner


Any help with these Birkbecks would be appreciated.
