Seaham Lass,
Sandra has not returned to this thread in the 2 months since posting. She has had time to get the marriage certificate and find out who the parents were. Perhaps you could pm her directly to see if she has read the thread, or does not know how to return to it?

I hink you need to get the marriage cert of Walter Johnson and Agnes Booth.

Strange that Agnes and Florence were not baptised till 1916 if brother Charles was baptised 1915.

What evidence do you have that this is the right family?

I think that Astra and K have the right family.
Agnes was born about 1907 but wasn't baptised until 1916. Parents are Charles and Mary Booth
They have other children after 1911 and they are
Charles Booth baptised 1915
Florence Ann Booth born 1913, baptised 1916
*********************************************

Joseph born 1903 also baptised 1916
Maria born 1905, baptised 1916
Mary Ann born 1910, Baptised 1916

This info came from " durhamrecordsonline" and all I put on the search form was
Surname : Booth
Parents: Charles and Mary
District : Easington

Hope this helps

This is my favourite for Agnes but maybe too young from your estimate but the father's name is Charles and it looks as though from FreeBMD their first child was Charles born in 1926 in same area that they married

Do you have evidence that they were both born in the Newcastle area in 1899/1900?
Have you tried to find their births on free bmd?
Do you know when and where they both died?
Thank-you

The marriage cert will name both fathers along with their occupations. This should help to find them on the 1911 census

Where they married is not an indication of where they were born
