Hi, just started my tree. gone back to Robert Barrass b. 1895, married Margaret Ramshaw. Robert had two brothers. Walter and William. All from Burnhopefield near Newcastle and surrounding areas. Margaret had a brother called ruben and a sister called Annie and another sister. Any information would be great. Thanks. Patricia.

Hi. I have just been working on an ancillary line, a side line to my line of descent, my Grandmother's Aunt Janet Stewart, married a James Partland, and their eldest son Alfred, born 1882 married one Mary Jane Barrass in 1905. they went on to have Francis James 1907 and Thomas Alfred 1908, and possibly more. The registration district is Morpeth, but that does cover a large area. A fair few members of this partland family lived in Wallsend in 1901.

Free bmd is a great resource, you might like to give that site a bit of a glance,
