[John W Caithness]

Hi
I am trying to find decendants of Robert N Caithness & Margaret Whitton. I am 2xGGson of Robert & Ann Brown [First wife]
I Know of 2sons of Robert & Margaret John Born Dundee 30/06/1870 Robert Born Sunderland 1873. {Married 1893}
but cannot get any trace of them after 1901 census England.
I would like to know if there are any living decendants to get in touch with.

John W Caithness

Hello John,

What looks to me like son Robert and his brood appear to be living in Sculcoates in 1911. These are all with surname Caithness living in district of Sculcoates. http://www.1911census.co.uk/search/tnaform.aspx?5

CAITHNESS ELIZABETH, F, 1905, 6, Sculcoates Yorkshire East Riding (with York)
CAITHNESS FRANCIS, F, 1873, 38, Sculcoates Yorkshire East Riding (with York)
CAITHNESS HANNAH, F, 1896, 15, Sculcoates Yorkshire East Riding (with York)
CAITHNESS HILDA, F, 1906, 5, Sculcoates Yorkshire East Riding (with York)
CAITHNESS MARGARET, F, 1898, 13, Sculcoates Yorkshire East Riding (with York)
CAITHNESS ROBERT, M, 1873, 38, Sculcoates Yorkshire East Riding (with York)
CAITHNESS ROBERT, M, 1900, 11, Sculcoates Yorkshire East Riding (with York)

On the same census there’s a possible John still in Sunderland.

CAITHNESS JOHN, M, 1871, 40, Sunderland Durham

If you search FreeBMD for Caithness in the district of Sculcoates you’ll find marriages for several of the likely kids and children for them in the 20s and 30s. There’s a John Caithness died 1940 in Sunderland age 70 and probably lots of other useful odds and ends scattered about. http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/cgi/search.pl

See how you go with that lot and post back if you get stuck.

Hope that’s useful,
Alan
