Hi Jacky,

Looks like her marriage?

Surname First name(s) Spouse District Vol Page

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Marriages Jun 1912 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Burn Alexander H Johnson Tynemouth 10b 586
Johnson Margaret C Burn Tynemouth 10b 586


The marriage certificate should name her father.

Wonder if this is her in 1911??

HOUSEHOLD JOHNSON MAGGIE E A F 1892 19 Newcastle upon Tyne Northumberland

This was done by a free general check and these 2 others possibly show with her;

HOUSEHOLD JOHNSON ELZIABETH M F 1868 43 Newcastle upon Tyne Northumberland
HOUSEHOLD JOHNSON THOMAS M M 1855 56 Newcastle upon Tyne Northumberland



Maggie was born in Scotland


And these also seem to be with her;

HOUSEHOLD JOHNSTON ARTHUR M 1897 14 Newcastle upon Tyne Northumberland
HOUSEHOLD JOHNSTON THOMAS M M 1901 10 Newcastle upon Tyne Northumberland

Totally agree Jacky, you'll need that birth cert, fingers crossed though that her parents are the ones above.

afternoon all
i wonder if someone can look on the 1901 & the 1911 census & see if they can spot what i,m missing i know batmansdaughter has found a margaret johnson on census 1901 & 1911 living in northumberland but bon scotland so i don,t think is right one as my margaret catherine amanda johnston was born in northumberland in a place called dudley in 1892
i know now that she was the only girl & had 3 brother,s
robert
william
thomas
what i was looking for in the 1901 & 1911 census was a margaret johnston living in northunmberland with a robert ,william, & thomas in the same household but can,t see one just wondered if someone could have a look too & see if they can see one that i,m missing
thank you in advance for any time or help given
