This is an extract from the 1881 Census Returns for Northumberland which includes Ponteland.
Living at number 14 Ponteland Village is Robert Spence. Robert, aged 23 years, was the head of the household, married with one child. His occupation was that of a Brick and Tile Maker and he was born at Alnwick in Northumberland.
Census Returns are an excellent source when doing family history. The Northumberland Record Office holds microfilm and microfiche copies of the Northumberland Census Returns from 1841 to 1901.
