HANNAH the wife of JAMES WHYZAL, d April 3rd 1771


Marriage records for Riddings Independant Chapel, around 1863
« on: Sunday 28 October 07 17:30 GMT (UK) »

As part of my research into Whysall family tree, I am trying to find information on the marriage of Mary CRESSWELL (b.1844, "House Wife") of Ripley, Derbyshire to John WHYSALL (b.1843; Collier).  All I know is that it took place at Riddings Independant Chapel. 

I live some distance from Derbyshire and have little opportunity to visit Family Record Offices, Libraries, etc  - but would also find it hard to know exactly what to look for at this stage.

Can anyone help, please?

Hi Whizzer
Can you narrow down the date of the marriage? We'll assume it was after 1862-3, but were there any children, who we will assume were born shortly after (or possibly before! Roll Eyes) the marriage?

Hello all
Thanks for your help here!
Sorry have no more details on date, other than Derbyshire Marriage Index:

Name Mary CRESSWELL Year 1856 married at Riddings Independent Chapel Spouse name John WHYSALL Reg. Office 392 Register Entry ARO/03/048

which fits with your note yonderpeasant .  You are right - does not fit with birth dates. 

Yes they had children Frank/Francis 1859 , susana 1863, Thomas 1866, Frederick 1870, James 1872, German 1874

The children were probably baptised at the Independent Chapel, are the Registers available or have they been lost?  mrswoman.

ev and all
Yes - thanks - i have this, with John aged 48 and Mary aged 45 in 1881.  Therefore John would have to be born 1833 and Mary born 1836, which fits with date of 1856 for marriage.

Only trouble is, this fact blows out a lot of my other links!  I am really searching for true parents of Thomas Whysall 1866.  Are they this John and Mary......?

Or, could there be another marriage of Mary CRESSWELL (b.1844, "House Wife") of Ripley, Derbyshire to John WHYSALL (b.1843; Collier) NOT at Riddings Independant Chapel?

Hi Whizzer

What conflicting info do you have for being unsure about Mary and John as Thomas' true parents? It all looks pretty reasonable as far as the census info goes.

There is a birth record for Thomas Whysall in 1866 if you want to order the certificate Details are Belper, Jun quarter 1866, Vol 7b Page 444

i suggest that we might be chasing shadows here and duplicating research.
where does john whysall , mary cresswell , and  thomas whysall info come from
and how accurate is it ?
whysall does not sound a common name

Work does so get in the way of what's really important, doesn't it, Whizzer?  Wink

Keep us posted on progress.

Hi Kizmiaz, yonderpeasant

Thanks for the GROs for Thomas's birth certificate and John&Mary marriage.  I have ordered them so will wait to see what they reveal.

Ev,

I have my grandfather’s birth cert. 1891 giving his father Thomas Whysall, and notes from  conversations with my parents 35 years ago showing Thomas' siblings German, Frederick and James.  From family knowledge, Thomas married Sarah Mellars from Woodsetts, and there are references to Mary Cresswell..

In 1891 census at Wales Waleswood Collliery Row Thomas head M 26 coal miner b Derby, Waingroves; Sarah wife M 18 b Yorks, Woodsetts 

I have census records for John & Mary 1861, 1871, 1881.

On 1881 census at Aston Ter Aston cum Aughton, John head 48 coal miner b Hartshay, Mary wife 45 b Denby, Frank son 22 coal miner b Green Hillocks, Susana dau 18 b Waingroves, Thomas son 15 coal miner b Waingroves, Frederick son 11 scholar b Waingroves, James son 9 scholar b Waingroves, German son 7 scholar b Waingroves.   

In 1871 census at Pentrich Waingroves, John Head Coal miner 34 b Ripley, Mary Wife Coal miners wife 35 b Denby, Francis son coal miner 12 b Ripley, Susannah 6 scholar b Pentrich, Thomas son 3 scholar b Pentrich, Frederick son 1 b Pentrich

On 1861 census at Woodside Ripley, John head 29 coal miner b Ripley, Mary wife 25 b Denby, Sarah dau 5 scholar b Ripley, Francis son 2 scholar b Ripley. 

Additionally  I now have the marriage in 1856 of John Whysall & Mary Cresswell at Riddings Chapel (certificate awaited).  This would just fit with birth of Sarah - but what happens to Sarah after this?  She never seems to be mentioned again, does she die?

You’ll see the discrepancies on the 1871 census  - I had previously discounted this as 'no match', and I did wonder whether this gave rise to a different John & Mary, but what do you all think?

Research by others on this Whysall line give Thomas’s parents John & Mary,  years of birth about 10 years earlier, which is why I wanted to verify for myself as far as possible the link between Thomas and his ancesters.

Having Thomas’ baptism would be very helpful as being in a non-conformist church, they might even have his mother’s maiden name.  Can anyone help me with this lookup?

Thanks to all for helping.
Whizzer

Hi Whizzer,

FreeBMD has a death for a Sarah Whysall who was born in 1856. Her death was registered in Belper district in 1867. Full details are: Jun quarter 1867, Belper, age 11, Vol 7b Page 268

[I'm slightly confused about the dates of birth you give for Mary CRESSWELL (b.1844, "House Wife") and John WHYSALL (b.1843; Collier). Where are these dates from? The census returns you have given don't indicate these as dates of birth, so is there another source?]

Looking at the evidence from the censuses, it looks extremely likely that this John and Mary are the correct parents for Thomas Whysall (b. 1866). The 1871 census discrepencies could easily be dismissed as incorrect transciption from the enumerators original notes when copied to the census form. An age of 39 written down in a shaky hand could easily be read as 34, and Thomas' 3 years old could have originally read as 5.

Hope this helps
