My great great grandfather Thomas Carr died at Hirst in Northumberland on 7 May 1900. Thomas and his wife Ellen or Eleanor or Ellenor had 5 daughters. Their youngest daughter was my great grandmother Sarah Ann Carr born in 1860. I have had no luck in tracing a marriage record for Thomas and Ellen. The birth certificates for their girls have inconsistent spellings of their mother’s name so I am looking for all possible combinations:
- Ellen Reid
- Ellen Read
- Ellen Reed
- Eleanor Reid
- Eleanor Read
- Eleanor Reed
- Ellenor Reid
- Ellenor Read
- Ellenor Reid
If any of you out there can shed any light on who she may have been drop me a comment and I will get back to you to discuss it.
