Hi, I have also been looking at this tree as I think Sarah Atkinson is my mum's great great grandmother. My mum's father was Charles William Atkinson b 1907 & married to Lucy Douglas. This Sarah seems the most likely one for us but we are not 100% sure. Interestingly I have just discovered some interesting stories about her on the national newspaper archives website ( the concubine on 1861 census was also a prostitute according to reports in the hull packet ). Would love to hear from anyone with any more info . Thanks

Hello Jennifer If you are related to Susan Atkinson b1954 M to Robert Brewer Hull I would be very Interested in your Tree. Thanks

Hello Jennifer
I haven't heard from you in a while. Hope all is ok?
I haven't done a lot more to the tree at all but plan to send out paper copies for all my Atkinson family this autumn. It may be with a Christmas card as I am running so late with my plan . If you wish to receive one I am more than willing to send it to you. If you feel a bit unsure of giving me your address then I will try (I plan to do this anyway) to get all of it on this website in due course, so keep your eyes peeled.
Take care
Wendy :-)

Hiya again DetEcTive. I have done that, so just hoping I get a reply. I'll keep looking. Thank you for your help :-)

Look in your >>Sent<< message box - is there still an envelope icon next to it? If there is, she hasn't read it.

Hello DetEcTive :-) thank you for help, new to site. I have looked in my inbox but no reply as yet. :-(

Has Jenny read the message?

Check your 'Sent messages'. If there is still an envelope icon against it, she hasn't yet done so.

Hi jenny

I have actually completed, in paper form, the Atkinson Tree from both John Atkinson's side and from his wife's side Hannah Jackson. I have traced her back to her grandparents Thomas and Sarah Jackson b 1794 & 1793. Am willing to send you the paper 'TREE' if you would like that.

Look in your inbox where you should find my telephone no.

Oh thanks Liz, didn't know I could do that new to the site. I'll try it. Thanks again :-)

Wendy, as this is an old posting, it may be better to send a personal message to Jennifer, by clicking on her name. She may not check this thread anymore.
Good luck, Liz

Hello Jennifer. I am researching my mums Atkinson family tree and have come to a dead end with my GG Grandfather John Atkinson born circa 1847/8 in Hull.
I have his marriage certificate, on which his fathers name and occupation are blank. I presumed that his mum may be widowed (although I believe his dads name should still be on the certificate but marked as deceased) or that he didn't know his dad as born illegitimate. I have searched and have found a couple of John Atkinson's that fit the bill and John with mum Sarah, concubine is one of them.
Willing to share info on my Atkinson Tree to you to see if we have any duplicate info. :-)

Thanks everyone who has replied so far for my request for information about Sarah Atkinson----I can't believe how helpful and friendly you have all been. This is my first experience of using Genes Reunited and I am dead Impressed Jenny C

Thanks for replying so quickly. I too have found this info from the1851 census and have also found her in the1861 census but I can't seem to find details of any of their births or if Sarah ever got married. Do you know what a meters daur is? In the 1861 census it says her occupation is a concubine. May I ask is Sarah part of your family tree?.If so would you be prepared to share any of it with me? Thanks again Jenny C
