Does anyone know anything about Martha E Vickers born Sunderland in 1885 the illegitamate daughter of John Vickers b 1855 Westgate.
On the 1891 census she was living with John's brother Joseph and thier mother Hannah in the Post office in Westgate I have been told they adopted her when her father emigrated to Boston but can't find any other trace of her.
susan.

Thanks for that I have heard from a local historean that both Johnand his father John snr died in the late 1850's so will now try to get hold of the certificates.
many thanks Susan

Hello Susan, these were easy to find on FreeBMD - http://www.freebmd.org.uk

Surname First name(s) Age District Vol Page
Deaths Mar 1855
Vickers John Weardale 10a 119

Deaths Jun 1855
Vickers John Weardale 10a 99

Deaths Jun 1857
Vickers John Weardale 10a 97

Deaths Dec 1857
Vickers John Weardale 10a 116

Deaths Mar 1859
Vickers John Weardale 10a 121

Deaths Dec 1859
Vickers John Weardale 10a 10[06]

Taking into account when the children were born it should be easy to narrow it down.

thanks for that any idea how i could find when and how John snr died.
Hannah is listed as widowed on the1861census.

There won't be a birth cert for John Senior as it was before 1837.
This entry on IGI not very helpful I'm afraid.

Hi I do not have John Snr marriage cert or birth, In fact I am really having trouble as there are so many Vickers in the area.
However his younger son Joseph's marriage cert states his fathers profession a Lead Miner.
Joseph was the Postmaster in Westgate from around 1890 but I have no idea what happen to his elder brother John or his father of the same name who died when the boys were very young.

What was John (senior)'s occupation on the marriage certificate please?
