Hi Dave
This could be the newlyweds in 1841
It looks like Benton Granges? Long Benton Nthmbld
both are aged 20 as we know ages were rounded off.
James not born county coal miner
Isabella born county.
Transcribed as Shielos, someone has added a correction to Shield.

Curious it says Durham.

Arrived 31 Oct 1854 on 'Stamboul'

James 44 Miner A/S/L?e/i?ndale, Cumberland Ch of E Both
Isabella 32 Wife Wallsend, Northumberland Ch of E Both

I've looked at all the places in Cumberland that end in 'dale' and can't see one that is short enough and fits.

Dunno Dave??
Allendale but I think that's in Northumberland??

Ooo IGI has a baptism in Stanhope Durham for James Shield
about 1816
Death in Moggil Brisbane Qld 19 Jan 1901
Any connection?

 

[DaveHam9]

That's my James.

Deaths
19 Jan 1901/C04363 Shield James - James - Ann
8 Jul 1908/C03494 Shield Isabella - William -

Inscription List for Moggill Historic Cemetery
Shield James 19 Jan 1901 80y h/Isabella; father
Shield Isabella 8 Jul 1908 86y née Fryar; w/James; mother

I am now wondering perhaps father = James is correct but mother = Ann is not.

I looked at about 100 images of the BTs for Stanhope and no sign of any SHIELD family from 1815 - 1822.

I know all the family names now. Trivia. Even a Golightly.

 

[oznannie]

Dave, whatever you do, I don't think you'd Golightly :biggrin:

I spent the time looking because I almost expected to find the baptism.
