Eleanor Ormston
My father's Christian name is Ormston- he was named after Eleanor Ormston, his maternal grandmother.Presumably his mother wanted to keep this unusual name in the family as was the custom.My brother and I are trying to find out more about Eleanor, we know very little- census searches haven't helped. We know that Eleanor married Daniel Austin probably in the mid-19th century, or about that time. They had five children, Nickel, Samuel, Nella, Isabella and Margaret our grandmother.We know these all lived in South Shields, Jarrow or thereabouts. I also think that Daniel and Eleanor may have run a stables and livery.Many thanks
