  • "Lost" Bridget in 1901

    Please can anyone find gt-aunt Bridget Cochrane in 1901?
    Born c1864 in Horton (or Blyth) Northumberland

    1881 in Blyth Northumberland, aged 18, with new husband, Stephen Cochrane (Stephen born Howden on Tyne c1861, rivetter in shipyard.)

    1891 in Blyth Northumberland, aged 28, with 5 children (born Blyth 1881 - 1890) Recorded as wife and married, but no sign of Stephen. Brother-in-law William Cochrane with them, aged 25, a seaman.

    1901 I can't find any of them. Her children were Mary Ann
    (1881) William (1882 - 1895) Margaret (1885) Thomas (1888) and Kate (1890)

    Could well be mistranscribed.

        Elaine & Sue,

        Thankyou both, ladies - could be them. Need to do some more digging, but that's given me a head start

          Janet, if you look at the image it is definitely Cochrane - not Cobham.

            Thanks for that Elaine. I can't access Ancestry until tomorrow, but that is no problem.
            I had found a possible death for Bridget in late 1901, and wanted to check that she was still around in census, before sending cert order details to her descendent.
            (It's been some time since I looked at this branch for my own purposes and I do forget previous sticking points.)
