That is my thread Grey ghost. However this is a different James! Rather than confuse it with that thread, I have started again. My ancestors seemed to have no imagination with names. This James was my uncle. Whereas the James Newry Callan on other thread is a distant relative. But thanks

Trying to trace the above.
Son of John Callan & Jane nee Davies. Born in East Hetton Coxhoe County Durham
The above was my uncle. Have obtained birth certificate
He has never been mentioned by name in the family. I have a cousin in area who is 83. She only knew of one of the children dying and we have traced this dead child, female Eliza Jane.
I can not find any death record for James Callan as a child.
There is one for another James died 1913 but I can match that with his birth of 1912 - so not my James.
Any ideas anyone? Another family mystery! Thanks
