Hello Joonie.
Parents of Thomas William Alderson born 18th. feb' 1888
Father William, Mother Mary Alderson. 1911 census gives the addressDurham.
Father was a miner.
When my parents married in 1927 in Bradford. Ada lists her father as deceased.
But....and not wanting to go through past thread .
Ada stated on her marriage to Fred Barker, she gave fathers name as Alfred Powell. The marriage to John Arthur Jones, Fathers name is Alfred Thomas Powell.
All very confusing ....Alfred Thomas was my father's name.
I did look at a death cert' for a Thomas Alderson age 26 Death 1916 Midddlesbro.
But it wasn't my Thomas . Thanks again. Margaret x

Yes, you've got the right TWA for sure, I would say.
Now if only we knew what happened to him.
Given that Ada's mother remarried in 1918 - after having a child with her new partner - I would suspect a war death.
You could get that marriage certificate to see whether it states she was a widow.
Marriages Sep 1918
Alderson Sarah J Thurlby Auckland 10a 459
Thurlby Joseph Alderson Auckland 10a 459
You have the child of that marriage in a tree, have you ever been in touch with that family?
Rachel Thurlby 1916 Auckland
One other person has her as well (birthplace Crook ... always be general when searching, and for that one only the name is needed).
She married and had one child. The same other person has that child in their tree. (Born 1951 so I will not put any details here.) ... I believe it is her spouse. You will have a giggle when you see his name, if you don't know this already.
There are T/Thomas Aldersons listed in the WWI war dead at
https://www.cwgc.org/find/find-war-dead
but none of them seem to have personal info in their records (wife, parents, city). I tried searching for a few of them in WWI records at Ancestry, using only their regimental numbers, without luck, but you could pursue that search.
I would have a look at her remarriage certificate if you haven't.

Thanks again to you both.
I have the marriage certificate of Sara Jane Alderson and Joseph Thurlby.
Dated 21st. August 1918 which states that both Sarah and Joseph are widowed.
Sarah Jane had 2 children to this union.prior to the marriage. Rachel born 1916 and John 1917. I am in contact with Rachel's daughter Marjorie, but she cannot help my search for Thomas William. I am a member of the Alderson Society but no success with any matches. I am nor sure Thomas William Alderson was in World War !,
Kind regards
Margaret
