Rowland Lishman (1877 to 1958) was married twice, with children from both marriages. He lived all his life in Tynemouth and North Shields. He was a major businessman in the area and well-known as a benefactor of good causes. He married:
1) Mary Woodburn Riddel/Riddle (c. 1880 to Nov. 1912) in 1905-ish.
The children of this marriage were Mary Woodburn (1909 to 2004), Rhoda (1911 to 2005) and a third child (b. Oct. 1912) who may still be alive. Mary appears to have died a few days after giving birth to this child.
2) Mary Angus (1886 to 1974) in August 1915.
There were 4 children of this marriage, of whom the youngest is probably still alive.
I don't need any information on the other people I have mentioned. I have more than enough information about them from family and other sources.
But the only concrete information I have about Mary Woodburn Riddle/Riddel is her date of death at the age of 33. I am trying to fill in the gaps.
