Shotton's in Northumberland

sharonshotton — 2009-10-27 18:05:30Z

I am researching my family's tree and I am trying to find out some informtion about the Shotton family from Longhoughton and their decendants. I am particulary interested in George Shotton (b1861) married to Isabel Jackson. They had 5 children, Margaret Elizabeth Shotton (b1890 Felton), Robert Edmund Shotton (b1891 Felton), Annie Bertha Shotton (b1895 Felton), Gertrude Mary Shotton (b 1905 Prudhoe) and one unknown but as at 1911 census was alive. Robert Edmund Shotton died in WW1 and I have been researching this. My guesses are (from FreeBMD and Ancestry) that Margaret may have married Alexander Buck, Anie may have married an Adams and Gertrude may have married a Cole but these are pure guesses.
The last details I have (1911 census and 1917 record of Robert's death) show them living at West Lodge, Prudhoe Hall, Prudhoe-on-Tyne.
Any information anyone has would be gratefull appreciated, including information on Robert (b1806)and Mary Shotton from Longhoughton!

Matthew Shotton was a French Polisher and he married a Margaret ? in the 4th Quarter 1872 in Newcastle upon Tyne.

Anyone know the surname of his wife who originated from Amble?

With regards to your George Shotton, it is likely that he was the father to my late fathers cousin John.If your George was married to my Great Aunt SarahAnnie Devlin,then he had three children before they divorced and both I believe remarried.
All the best, Pat Devlin

2003-11-12 18:23:16Z

for shotton searfhers in general: extended family of stephen shotton of sunderland 1881 were well known mariners masters and capatins who sailed the world from north east, bristol and cardiff for say twenty/thirty yrs around that time. possibly because of sea connection extended shotton family name in south wales/cardiff hd common birth areas sunderland/bishop auckland.
i am researching life of william shotton who at age 6 (1881)lived at laura st sunderland with mother and brothers and sisters with father stephen away at sea at the time. william went on to fame by sailing ss trafalgar from batavia to australia when captain masters and crew were dying of fever all around him. he was an 18 yr old apprentice seaman at the time. story received world wide newspaper coverage and he received lloyds of london medal.
require information of his subsequent life after 1993: residence;marriage, demise, etc.
