Allendale marriages.
« on: Sunday 07 September 08 12:18 UTC (UK) »
I wonder whether there is anybody out there who maybe able to clarify something for me or point me in the right direction.I am researching one Michael Askew who appears to have been born circa 1756 in Allendale. I realize that information is scant from that time period but try as I may I cannot just pin down whether or not he was the father of one George Askew also from Allendale who was born circa 1815. My gut feeling is that Michael originally married one Mary Stobs in Allendale on the 30th May 1776 and had six children the last one apparently being christened in 1792.I also feel that he married again on 29.5.1799 to Hannah Vipond but I cannot quite tie all of this together and confirm this point. One of George's children one Michael Askew subsequently emigrated to Australia and a lady there is created a huge family tree with thousands of descendants but the stumbling block is Michael jnr's antecedents.
Any suggestions out there?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards.

Hi Ted, have you tried http://www.genuki.bpears.org.uk/NBL it will give you info on Northumberland & where the parish records are kept..Also you could try the Hugh Wallis IGI batch no's or the  FamilySearch website.

Okay,I will try anything.Since writing earlier I have been looking at the records about the blacklisted lead miners and it has set me wondering whether Michael was one of them.I know that he married locally before emigrating to Australia.

Hi I just checked  births in Allendale on the Hugh Wallis IGI site.The only Michael  Askew  I could find  was his son? born 1815. Do you think Michael senior could have been born anywhere else in Northumberland? & maybe moved to Allendale whilst a youngster?  Sad

Hi. I have looked at the I.G.I site too and dependant upon how you search it you will on occasions get differing results.I believe that George's mam and dad were Hannah Vipond and Michael Askew and that they came from Allendale.I believe that George was born in 1815 and that he had a sister whose name was ANN.There is another Michael in there apparently married to Hannah  Walton.I cannot find any meaningful information about George apart from some vague information that he was born in "England " in 1814.The genes Reunites site is equally confusing on this matter and nobody appears to really know who the Michael was really married to.My own belief was that he was married twice to Miss Vipond and another.You can see two marriages for Michael in 1799 and 1776.I am confused to say the least even more so when I cannot find a George Askew in George's children with Hannah Vipond.It could be that Michael came from away to the lead mines but the information appears to indicate a fairly long term presence in that area. Any guidance is much appreciated
Regards.

Hi again.Just been looking at the IGI website again and in particular at the numbers ascribed to the births and marriages.What a mix up there is with Michael Askew and Hannah Vipond and Walton.
Michael's marraige in 1777 is ascribed a cetain number of M002421 and then the births of their children of Michael and Mary follow a similar pattern using the numbers p002421.Then there is another marriage in 1997 for what looks like the same Michael but this time with Hannah Vip[ond and laterly Hannah Walton .The numbers 002421 repeat them sleves and also the numbers p004371 appear.Michael appears to now be married to Hannah Vipond and Hannah Walton.Anybody know what is happening.Clearly something is wrong. Help!!!!!!!! Am I misunderstanding what is happening here.In each case there is another succession of children.  Lead in a pencil comes to mind.After all he did work in the lead mines.

Be careful when using the IGI  you are fairly safe if it is an extracted record - but be wary if it states submitted by an LDS member, - it could be very vague & totally inaccurate. Have you tried  the Northumberland records office at Woodhorn? I do not know their web address but just google it. they have lot's of records there. Perhaps someone who lives locally would be kind enough to do a look up for you.

Hi again,these records appear to be extracted because they are given the reference numbers which I have already indicated.I may be mistaken but I fail to see how Michael reference number P and M 002421 from 1777 can be the same Michael with Hannah in 1797 unless he married twice in those years.Howeevr the second marriage of Michael appears to show births of children from 1798 until 1807 whereupon the reference number changes to 004371.Thanks for the info though,I will try the look ups and see what happens. I must be going wrong somewhere.
Regards.

IGI coverage for Allendale is a waste of time unless your researching surnames starting A-H

Hi

Just starting to use Rootschat and came across your posting as I am researching a marriage of a Jane Askew born 1790 in Allendale. I believe my Jane was born/christened  9th.Jan 1790 father Michael , mother Mary, place of abode High Studholme House. Also in the Parish register for St Cuthbert
Mary Askew wife of Matthew died 8th. Sept. 1795 abode High Studholm
My problem is in identifying if Michael and Matthew are one and the same...When Jane married  Jacob Hutchinson in 1818 and they named one of their  children Matthew. My 2X great grandfather.
While trying to solve my conundrum I came across the birth of George Askew  son of George and Jane  2nd March 1794 abode Studholm. Don't know if this helps.
