I am searching for any information relating to my grandmother Kate Marion Leighton who I believe was born around 1990 -1992-ish and was born in Durham and grew up in West Hartlepool. We do not have any other information of her family (parents etc) except that she had a sister called Vera. Kate moved to Shipley West Yorkshire, She then married and had a daughter Kathleen and a son Thomas. Hopefully one day we may find out a little more about our grandmother.

My gggrandfather's name was John Thomas Leighton, born around 1810 in Wyandotte, Michigan, U.S.A. Sheer coincidence, I guess, since both John and Thomas were popular names in my family and probably others in that time. He was married to Mary Christine Wright. I've found six of their children: William, Philip,(both died in the American civil war) John, Robert(My greatgrandfather), Alvie, and, recently, Kate (Miles) Leiaghton. If anyone reading this has a possible connection or interest, drop me a line.
