Me again, Still not able to send both certs at once so I will try one ata time.
Chas.
I have quite a bit of info on the Hobbs family going back to William 1768 & Sarah Parslo 1758 but if you have anything earlier I would be grateful.
Mum44 & Cat
I am leaning towards Selby as Silbrey is very close. I will send for another cert to see if I can confirm this.
I will send this now and send the certs seperately and one at a time. Lilian

Well done Lilian - although it is most definately his birth certificate!
nevertheless, it isn't anything like Selwyn, and, it seems, since she made her mark, Rebecca couldn't read and write - so the spelling wouldn't have been down to her. The registrar would write what he heard - and I would say he certainly didn't hear Selwyn !
Still think, in view of the difference, best to get a confirmation one if you can...
sorry - you posted theother one while I was typing this - will look at it now

I have had a magnifying glass over it and it says labourer but the long first L has faded on Rebeccas dads occupation. If you compare it with the other fathers occupation they are the same really.

I am going to send for another birth cert although the most modern one is the one I have got as Frederick was the last child born. I will also have a good look at the Selby family and I am secretly hopeful here that they are the ones. When I get anything certain (or as near as I can be) I will post to let you know. Thank you all once again, you are a great bunch of people. Kindest regards, Lilian

Lilian,
As you know, in the 1841 census J & R H were living in somewhere named Nag's Head. That's not the name of a pub - at least there's no PH shown on the 100 year old map I have - it's small area with about 10 houses between Avening and Cherington.
I have quite a few 100 year old maps of the area and I've had look at five or six in the hope of finding a small area/cottage named Ankerton or something similar but no joy. Perhaps Hankerton might be it, but where one remembers growing up is not necessarily where one was born. And that's another spanner isn't it?
Regards
Chas

Avening and Hankerton are relatively close to each other - try Google maps
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&rlz=1T4HPEA_en-GBGB236GB236&tab=wl
As I've already stated Hankerton parish records for this period are indexed on the BVRI - for information on the BVRI (a set of CDs which add further records to the IGI) see

Poole Keynes Wiltshire where a James and Ann Selby have been found on the 1841 and 1851 censuses with younger children born in the same place does not have any coverage either on the IGI or the BVRI. This website allows you to see what parishes do have coverage on the IGI (both Anglican and non-conformist) and for what periods and allows you to access just the index(es) on the IGI for individual parish registers.

Not sure where that gets you with Ann's birthplace. The marriage of Ann and James Selby is not showing on either the IGI or BVRI.

Hello,
Chas, I have been to Nagshead and, yes, it is only a road with a few houses. I spoke to a couple of the residents and have got an e-mail address from one of them and they will contact me if they find out anything. The problem for me is that I live up in Bolton, Lancashire and have only been able to get down there once since I started doing this research as I have a very old dog who cannot travel far and who I cannot leave so I will have to put my next visit off for a bit. Many thanks for your input, I really do appreciate the time you put in,
Valda, I am quite new to this research so I will read and inwardly digest what you have kindly posted and I am sure I will be able to make some sense of it. The web sites you quote are new to me so I am on a great learning curve. From idiot to dork in 2 years. Still, we all have to learn don't we. Many thanks and I will post again when I get it all down.
Wonderful site, brilliant people. Lilian

Nowt to do with your problem but it's interesting to note that Avening and Cherington are in the Domesday book - Aveninge: King's land with 5 mills and a hawk's eerie: Ceringtone: Geoffrey from Miles Crispin mill.
Regards
Chas

Hello everybody, Its me again with an update on my SELBY relation. You were right, it was Selby. I sent for another birth cert and it was there Whoopeeeeee. I have since found dozens of ancestors and living relations so very well done.XXXXXXXXX
I have another problem regarding writing on a death cert but I don't know whether to post it here or somewhere else. It is not regarding Selby. Please advise.
