Joseph RITSON, b Haltwhistle 1785
Is anyone connected to this Joseph Ritson's family? He was a son of John Ritson and Sarah Lowes (I think). He married Mary Wilson (daughter of David Wilson of Newcastle) and it seems that for generations the name Wilson was used as a Christian name. David was used a lot too.
One of Joseph and Mary's children was Margery, who married Thomas Armstrong who was born in Ryton in 1822. Margery was born in 1823. They were my great great grandparents.
