BMDB Events

BirthGeorge Turnbull was born in 1822 in South Shields, Durham, England.1
BaptismHe was baptized on 5 May 1822 at St Hilda's in South Shields, Durham, England.
MarriageHe married Margaret Taylor on 25 May 1844 in Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland, England. George Turnbull was, age ~22, Margaret Taylor was, age ~26.2
DeathHe died about 1885 at age ~63.

Other Life Events

WitnessGeorge Turnbull was residing in the household of Thomas Turnbull, Sr., who was living in 1841 in Deptford, Township of Bishopwearmouth, Sunderland, Co. Durham, England.3
LivingGeorge Turnbull was living in 1881 in Southwick, Durham, England. By 1881 he is married, 28,'glassmaker', 2 sons and a servant.
AnecdoteMarried Margaret about 1845. Lived in Haverton Hill like his elder brother Thomas, until about 1847/8 (the date approximately when the glassworks was under Cutheberton, Carter and Thorman, then soon bought by Jas. COUPER and run by WALTON). It may have been the new regime under COUPER which stimulated George and Thomas Lee to move away?

The family may have taken a partnership in the Carr Hill glassworks, Gateshead, about this time and George came to manage it? Sheriff Hill is a neighbouring area to Carr Hill today, to the south of modern Gateshead city centre. His brother Matthew was also in Gateshead around this time and may have been a partner.

From 1853-1860s George and family were living in Byker, Newcastle, plus Matthew and James. They must have owned a glassworks nearby.

In 1861 George's household was large:

1871 census.
The whole family as above, bar Mary (mother) and James (brother), are now settled in Southwick where the TURNBULLs have developed the Cornhill Glassworks since about 1865. George is a 'Flint Glass Maker', whereas it is his brotherMatthew who is the 'glass manufacturer' (by now also resident in Southwick). George's sons are working in the family glassworks: John (FGM), Thomas (FGM) and George E. (Glass cutter).

1881 census
The family is reduced but in the same house:
George 58 'FGM'
Margaret 63
James 24 'Scalesman in Glass House' (scalesman, not salesman)
Margaret 22
Matthew 19 'mould maker Glass House'

John is married living in CP Monkwearmouth (north side of Wear), 'glass manufacturer'
Thomas is married, living Southwick, 'glass maker' and has 2 sons and a servant.
George...?

George died between 1881 and 1891. I have put 1885 as a guess.

BMDB Events

BirthJames Turnbull was born on 8 September 1836 at Carr Hill in Gateshead, Durham, England.
BaptismHe was baptized on 26 February 1837 at Haverton Hill in Billingham, Co. Durham, England.

Other Life Events

AnecdoteJames was born in September 1836 in Carr Hill, Gateshead, before the move to Haverton Hill near Billingham, Co. Durham.
His father managed the Haverton Hill glassworks, probably from its first opening in about 1835/6, until about 1840/41, and had two children baptized there on the same day in 1837, James and his last child Mary who was born in Haverton Hill.

James appears with his family in 1841 in Bishopwearmouth, age 6. I cannot find him in 1851, which seems to be a time of perhaps a bit of chaos in the family just after Thomas Snr died? James' two eldest brothers are old enough to become independent. Nor can I find Matthew, the next eldest, who at about 26 would be old enough to be supporting his mother and younger siblings. Perhaps they went outside Co. Durham/Newcastle for a short time.

1861
He has joined in the large household of his brother George in Byker, Newcastle, where his mother is also. See under George. He is a 'Flint Glass Maker', (same as George), and age 25, Unm. B. Carr Hill, 1836.

I have not been able to find him in later censuses.
WitnessJames Turnbull was residing in the household of Thomas Turnbull, Sr., who was living in 1841 in Deptford, Township of Bishopwearmouth, Sunderland, Co. Durham, England.1

She appears in 1851 with her parents and brother John T. TURNBULL in Stranton, Co. Durham (now part of Hartlepool) when her father was working as a 'coal teamer'.
But there is no record of her in 1861 onwards.

NoteAnn Turnbull. Perhaps Ann died in infancy, and Mary J. too?
I found her when checking for TURNBULL baptisms on IGI. Parents Thomas TURNBULL and Mary Ann. The record states that Thomas was a glassmaker, so there's no doubt about this being correct.

Other Life Events

AnecdoteMary was the last of the TURNBULL children born to Thomas and Mary. She was born when her father was managing the Haverton Hill glassworks, which had recently opened (1835/6). The family stayed there until about 1840/41.

She appears on the census in 1841 with her family, wrongly given the age of 2. She should have been shown as 4.

After that she disappears off the census, but could easily have married by 1861 when her mother and other members of the family (apart from her father) are found in the censuses.
