Hello B & G I am new to this site and have a line of my family that originate from Felton and Alnwick. The surname is LEE. mY 3X GGrandfather Joseph Lee according to the 1881 Census lived in Felton Village,Felton,Northumberland, and his occupation was given as Shoemaker. He was married to Mary Carr and had 6 children that I know of. His eldest son Edward was my 2xGGrandfather and his daughter Sarah was my greatgrandmother. Any information on this family would be fantastic.
Thanks GEN10
