Rennocks family
(Mar 06
Red)
I am researching the family tree of my great grandmother who lived in the area sometime between 1891 and 1911.
On the 1901 Census, my Grandmother Annie Rennocks (Widow of William Rennocks) is shown as living with her children and stepson at "Port Mahon Farm"
John Rennocks (her cousin ?) is shown as living with his family at Port Mahon cottage.
Any family details, including dates of occupancy and other family conenections would be very welcome.
Also, details of history and any photos of Port Mahon Farm and whether the Great Northern Railway ran accross, adjacent to, or near to this farm.
I am particularly interested in the possible railway connection as my Grandfather Albert Thomas Rennocks (age 14 in 1901) became a signalman for 50 years, and the next entry in the 1901 Census (after Port Mahon Farm) shows one "Arthur Hook" located at "The Railway (GNR) Signal Box" and he may well have influenced my Grandfather (shown as an "ordinary agricultural worker) to leave the farm and work on the railway?
Any history or photographs of this signal Box welcome
