Great Great Aunt of W.P.
'Bill' Richardson
Eleanor was the seventh child of Thomas Richardson
and his wife Mary (nee Robinson), she was born in South
Shields in the second quarter of 1844.
The 1851 census recorded her in the family home in
Usworth Colliery aged 7, living with her father Thomas
who was a 44 year old Brickmaker and her mother Mary who
was 42.
As well as Eleanor, there were six other Richardson
children in the house, ranging in age from 20 years down
to 17 months.
For the moment, that is all the information I can find
for Eleanor, she didn't appear on any of the later
census returns for the family and I haven't yet been
able to track her down elsewhere.
