A puzzle for anyone who is bored
If anyone is bored and wants to help me unmuddle something. My Grandfather !! James Thorpe died Feb 1939 24 Park Road East Ham age 49 occupation Coal Miner I have death cert. He married 24 December 1910 Sarah Ann Kirkland Newcastle Upon tyne occupation still Coal Miner his father shown as Edward Thorpe (are you with me so far) 1911 Census James and Sarah are married and living with Lyall Waggott and family in Benwell NUT now this is where the mystery comes in, Lyall Waggot is shown as born 1883 Durham Lancchester (keep this in mind) back a bit further 1891 census shows my grandfather James Thorp (no E) living with his parents Edward and Mary A Thorp Durham Blaydon plus James broter LYALL Thorp age 8 born Lanchester !!!!!! Now I cannot find a birth reg for Lyall Thorp or Lyall Waggott. I know there is a connection between Waggott and Thorpe as my fathers middle name is Waggott. So are Lyall Waggott and Lyall Thorpe one and the same person? Oh kind of feel better about this having written it down. xxhugxx

Do you know Mary A's maiden name, and do you know when Edward and Mary A got married? And whose brother is Lyall Thorp, James's or Edward's?

Have you taken the parents Eward and Mary A any further back and come across the Waggott name?

Well, do you have James' birth certificate, Lindy? That would give you Mary's maiden name.
