Has anyone got any information on any Errick family members living in Gateshead (& surrounding areas) around 1900s?
I believe my grandfather alongside his brother (believed to be Henery) and sister (believed to be Mary) lived in a orphanage or possiblity a workhouse while they were children and there was a fire which burnt their records. There was a query over their surname but the eldested child (Mary) said it was Errick and information about their parents was never discussed. We believe they used to be visited by a well dressed man and used to bring them gifts. We are unsure who he may have been.
My grandfather was brought down south and lost contact with his siblings. If anyone could give me any informtion on any erricks or if they know of these three children (possible related to Henery or Mary) please get in contact.
