William Sennett was my great-grandfather, through his middle son James Sennett.
William Sennett was born near Coundon in 1858 (click on to read more about his parents & siblings, or to read more about his birth certificate.)
If you aren't familiar with the towns of Co. Durham, try out my Google Map for this family. I wanted to get some things straight in my head!
William was brought up by James & Margaret Sennett of Willington (1871 census) and became a miner. Certainly at the age of 12 he worked down a mine.

Jane, or Ann, or Emily, or Mary Sennett (nee McGuire)
This post is about a lady who was my great-great-Grandmother. In her later life she seems to have been known as Anne Sennett; earlier records, though, record her name as Emily. Her grandchildren recall(ed) her name as Jane, or Mary. I'm sure she was probably referred to as 'Mam'.
You'll see some more details from this original post on Anne's husband, William Sennett, who was a miner in Coundon & Byers Green, Co. Durham.
