John Sanderson 1790-1871

Miner & Agricultural labourer

Born Norham, moved SW to Bamburgh mid 1830s, back N to Ancroft 1841, Scremerston Berwick in 1851, Tweedmouth Berwick in 1861, Ancroft Berwick 1871- pauper by then

1790. John Sanderson was born Norham. Likely baptised Norham, Northumberland to James Sanderson & Agnes/Ann Thomson-FS . Norham~15 k SW of Berwick. It is on the river Tweed, on the border with Scotland. Siblings baptised to this couple were Agnes 1786, George 1787 & Susan 1792.

And James Sanderson had married Ann Thomson in Norham in 1784- FS . And baptism of a James to a Thomas in Berwick 1764? - check

But odd that none of John's children, born 1823-1838, are called James or Agnes

~1815-1823. John Sanderson marries Ann/ Agnes Dunn. No marriage found on FMP, Ancestry or FS. Had a hunch that she could have been Agnes Dunn! and this confirmed by buying the 1838 b.c of her daughter, Eliza . Possible the marriage was in Scotland?- cannot find it. LOOK AGAIN

1823. Margaret Sanderson was baptised to John & Agnes in Norham 24/5/1823- FS

1825.Jane Sanderson was baptised to John & Agnes in Norham 4/3/1825- FS

1827. George Sanderson was baptised to John & Agnes in Norham 29/4/1827- FS

~1830. John Dunn Sanderson was born to parents John & Agnes, seemingly in Norham. No baptism found

1832 -1838 He moves with his family from Norham to Bamborough , ~38 k to the SW

See map

1838. Eliza Sanderson born Belford Dec 1838 25 216 - Belford reg. district includes Bamborough - this b.c. gave me Ann/Agnes' maiden name

1841C. Could not find any of the family on FMP . Ancestry has them in Ancroft, Berwick on Tweed, Durham??- John b.1794, Agnes b,1800, & 3 sons, George 14, John 11, Thomas 10, 2 daughters, Ann 6, Eliza 2.. After persistent searching!! I found son Thomas in FMP, so

1841C. John Sanderson ,45, coal miner, is living Long Dyke, Ancroft, Berwick, Durham with his wife Ann & 5 children. Note that Agnes appears as Ann here . Also that Berwick is part of Durham - this lasted up until 1844!
