The following family are a bit of a mystery. I believe John McCreton emigrated in 1924, passenger notes have a chap of the right name, age and occupation (bricklayer) though he has a new wife and one year old daughter with him. I checked the birth and found the daughter mmn born 1924, mmn Buckley but there is no McCreton/ Buckley marriage. There's a lot about the McCreton family in the papers but only one John born in 1887 that I can find.
It's Minnie and the children I'm looking at, the oldest two are a mystery, the youngest two I did locate marriages for but none of the family appear in the 1939 register.
Minnie Jane Wilson was born 24 Mar 1888 in Middlesbrough and died 1974 in E Cleveland Reg District. She married John McCreton 1909 in Middlesbrough. He was born ABT 1887 in Middlesbrough.
Children of Minnie Jane Wilson and John McCreton:
i. Kathleen May McCreton was born 1910 in Middlesbrough (not the 1934 marriage to Jesse Lowell, that one is her sister in law)
ii. Marjorie McCreton was born 1911 in Middlesbrough---edit, now found as Marjorie Seymour in 1939 with hubby in Middlesbrough
iii. Dorothy McCreton was born 1914 in Middlesbrough and died 1914
iv. John Vivian McCreton was born 1916 in Middlesbrough, died 2008
v. Nancy Isabel McCreton was born 1919 in Middlesbrough died 1993
