The email to the person in Canada bounced! I had to wait until early afternoon for my post to arrive! Andrew WALLACE and Sarah ASHCROFT Married after Banns, her father William DRIVER Deceased, Architect His father Richard Wallace Deceased, Blacksmith. Thomas DEARDEN and Matilda HUMPHREYS (The mark of) were Witnesses, in the Parish Church of St Stephen Hull on 6 Feb 1882.

Before they married - Richard Andrew WALLACE Bn 13 Dec 1875, at 4 Leek Court, Mill Street was registered, by Sarah WALLACE formerly DRIVER. Father was Andrew WALLACE Engine Fitter.

I have now requested the Death Certificate of Andrew ASHCROFT, Dec qtr 1878 to see who registered his death in Berkenhead and also ordered a Will found, for an Elizabeth ASHCROFT - Widow from Berkenhead in 1894.

There is a marriage of Andrew ASHCROFT to Mary HARDMAN in Dec qtr 1873 on Free BMD at Birkenhead!! It looks like it might be true!

Hi Noreen

Have you got Andrew Ashcroft in the 1871 census?

If he died 1879 he will be buried more than likely in St Mary's Churchyard, where he and Sarah got married. Or he is in Flaybrick Cemetery.
Let me know the date of death and I will look it up for you.

Thank you for this input! The son I am researching Arthur was born in Manchester about 1871 and the other children were born in Birkenhead it looks like she left Andrew ASHCROFT to live in Hull with Andrew WALLACE about that time. I noticed William DRIVER her father was from Keighley Yorkshire. Wozzle very kindly has helped find the census's for me including the 1871.

Thank you for the kind offer to look up Andrew ASHCROFT's grave for me.

Hi Noreen

I have checked today, St Mary's church and Flaybrick both C of E and N C and he is not buried there.
There is a Catholic section in Flaybrick. Otherwise its further a field.

My mistake about the 71 census. I didnt go back far enough Roll Eyes

Thank you very much for your help, I am hoping his death certificate comes today! He seems to have been a bigamist! It is the first time I have found one, when researching my family tree!

Kind regards

With the address given I think that he would be buried in Bebington cemetery. That opened in 1868. ALot of people from Tranmere where buried there.
There are another 2 possibilities a churchyard in New Ferry and Christchurch in Bebington.

I'll have a look later in the week when the library opens.

Hi Noreen

Here are the details for Mary in 1881. I went through my discs looking for the address.

Transcribed under Oscroft.

That is wonderful and very helpful. I ran the wheel of my office chair over my Cheshire disk and have written to our local Latter Day Saints for another with a £5.00 cheque. That was 2 weeks ago, I wonder if they would have to get another one from Salt Lake City for me?

It was extremely clever of you to think of the address. I found Sarah and Andrew who were missing in 1881 by looking for Andrew by Christian name, age, and place of birth in Hull. He was WALLACE! Still WALLACE in 1891.
