Thread: 1881 census of Gateshead look up please for Mary Jane Miller

Hi, Can someone with access please look at the 1881 census for Mary Jane Miller. In 1871 census she, and her parents/siblings were living at 98 Pilgrim St Newcastle Upon Tyne in the parish of All Saints



Mary Jane Miller was born in Gateshead in 1865 so in the 1881 census she will be 15 or 16.



Her father was William Miller (Shoe maker) from Woolwich or Walwick, Kent - age in 1881 circa 55



Her mother was mary born in Durham - age in 1881 circa 50



Siblings were

John Miller (Blacksmith) age in 1881 circa 26

Margaret Miller age in 1881 circa 24

William Miller age in 1881 circa 20

James Miller age in 1881 circa 11





Thank you

Thank you Welshlady



This may well be Mary Jane's brother.



Using the limited access I currently have to 1881 census records, I located a Mary Jane Miller boarding in Gateshead (less than a mile from her 98 Pilgrim St, Newcastle, address of 1871). Although the birth year is 4years out, as my MJ Miller was born in 1865.



The industrial school on Jubilee Road is approx 4 to 500 metres from Pilgrim St. so I think there is a very good possibility that the parents passed away and the children split up, with the youngest James entering an industrial school

Thank you again for your kind assistance. I think I will try and locate her other siblings John, Margaret, & William. If they live in separate homes it may support the theory of a dissolved family

Thank you and yes she would be harder to identify. I may try her sibling brothers first



Thank you

Has anyone come across this occurence before?



I am searching the whereabouts of Mary Jane Miller in 1881 census, and although I have a few hits to choose between but nothing concrete, I decided to angle my approach and see who, in 1881, was residing at her 1871 census address of : 98 Pilgrim Street, Newcaslte Upon Tyne (All Saints). Perhaps track her parents William & Mary.



After much trying I managed to get Ancestry to give me a list of street records for Newcastle and after going thro them finally arrived at the parish of All Saints - 92 Pilgrim St then 94, then 96... but just when I thought I was home and dry the list moved onto 104. 106 etc No 98!!



Is is a common occurence the the records are, or maybe, incomplete?
