I had looked at several maps of the area but had not found Thistleton but thanks to your instructions I have found it. <br /><br />Now the question is whether Middleton was wrong on his death registration. It is secondary information so it could easily be wrong.Janet Ileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10742257036879298830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-305679911018720590.post-36763762295486940742010-06-16T15:44:37.773-04:002010-06-16T15:44:37.773-04:00Hi Janet,

It is probably this that is meant as the abode - if the family lived outside the parish it would be more clearly stated. You can check out very detailed maps for the UK at http://www.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/oswebsite/getamap/ - just press the big pink button then search for Gosforth, select Gosforth Cumbria (Cumberland is now part of Cumbria) and you should be able to find Thistleton to the east of the village. I'm afraid I can't help you with Middleton. <br /><br />Hope this helps.Rebeccanoreply@blogger.com
