No sorry, but you could do with an 1871 lookup now that you know she was born in 1870 and see where they are Yvonne

Margaret - In 1881 John and Rosannah Blackie with children, Isabella 10, Mary 7, Rosannah 5, Eliza 3 were living at 5 Shiney Row, Wallsend, Northumberland. I think they must have moved around a bit, I can't confirm their address for 1891 or 1901 Thanks Clare

Unfortunately not :( The last 4 are in the London area. Manchester would be your closest and even that isn't very close. But people did move around a bit, even back then so you never know! I searched under 1865 to 1881, but guess it's possible they married later, and also possible that it just hasn't been transcribed yet Regards Ann

Thanks Ann - my geography is rubbish is any of them near Gateshead do you know? Clare

Yvonne & Margaret - whoops sorry meant 1871 - Isabella was born in 1871 so she might not be on the 1871 census, depending on the quarter. Haven't got a date of birth.
