George Howey was baptised in Gateshead on the 10th July 1808 he married Selina Cartlidge on the 6th May 1827 at St. Mary, Gateshead.

From IGI records and censuses I believe that they had 10 children.

George died aged 61 at Beehive Lane, West Sunderland on the 29 Oct 1869 and Selina died aged 67 at the Hilton Road workhouse on the 13th December 1875.


1841 census has the family living at Salt Meadows, Gateshead with 6 children:
George bn 1828, Catherine 1830, Mary 1832, Richard 1834, Elizabeth 1836 and Isaac 1839.
George had the middle name Cartlidge and was baptised 7 Feb 1828, Isaac Cartlidge Howey was baptised on the 27th March 1839.
1851 census finds the family in 34 Burleigh Street Sunderland, George is listed as a potter, all the family, now 9 children with Mary having moved out.
George (23, a potter), Catherine (23), Richard (16 and a blacksmith), Elizabeth (14), Isaack (sic) aged 12, John (10), Selina (7), Thoma (sic) aged 4 and Jane aged 2. Jane was born in Sundeland but the rest were listed as born in Newcastle.
In the 1861 census George (an earthenware painter) and Selina were living in a private house, Gascoigne Place, Southwick on Wear, west of Sunderland.
Young Selina (occ: Warehousewoman and pottery) was living at home with two siblings, John (aged 15 and a shipwright) and Jane aged 12.
By 1871 George had died and widow Selina was living at The Pineapple Inn, George Street Sunderland with her daughter (Elizabeth) who had married Caephas/Caffeas BOOKER in Sunderland in 1858 and 3 children Charlotte Booker (bn Dec 1858), Mary Elizabeth Booker (bn Mar 1862) and Frederick George Howey Booker (bnSep 1864) were at the same address.
