Marriage - Sarah Morley & John Ramsey, Hull, c1827. COMPLETED
« on: Saturday 06 June 09 19:58 UTC (UK) »

Struggling to find marriage details and birth details of Sarah Morley.
John Ramsey, born Walkington, 1810 married Sarah Morley, born Hull, c 1806.

Last child from marriage Mary Ann Ramsey, born Crowle Lincs, 1845 confirms parents names from birth certificate.
First child from marriage John Ramsey, born Hull, 1828 suggests marriage c 1827 in Hull.  Later children mainly born in Thorne [from census]

1841 census possibly under "Ramseey" in Thorne.
1851 & 1861 census shows John & Sarah living in Crowle Lincs.

[John Ramsay born 1810 birth identified on IGI].

Any help much appreciated.  Mike

Hi Mike,

I have a theory!  Roll Eyes

From the IGI -

John Ramsay married Sarah Chapman 13.2.1827 Sutton in Holderness.

Sarah Morley married a Robert Chapman 28.11.1824 Drypool.

If you can find a burial for Robert Chapman 1824-27, could this be your Sarah remarrying? What exactly does it say on the birth cert you have for mother's maiden name (i.e. formerly Morley or late Morley)?

May be way wide of the mark but might be worth checking out.

If you don't know the area very well, both Drypool and Sutton in Holderness are now part of 'Greater' Hull.

Very interesting theory.  The birth certificate just says "formerly Morley".  I will follow up on this.  I had seen the Ramsey / Chapman marriage on IGI and discounted it.

Many thanks, Mike

I don't know how local you are, but I could look at both marriages next time I go to the RO to see if there is any extra info, plus look for a burial for Robt Chapman in Drypool 1824-7 if you'd like.

I now live in Scotland but was born and grew up in Scunthorpe.  Your lookup would be most appreciated.
I can send you a scanned copy of the birth certificate if it helps.

A little more information may assist.  John and Sarah's children were:

John, born Hull, ERY. 5th Jun 1828. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI].

Thomas, born Thorne, WRY. 5th Sept 1830. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI].

Elizabeth, born Thorne, WRY. 8th Jul 1832. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI].

Harriet Douglass, born Holy Trinity Hull. 14th Oct 1834. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI]. 1851 census shows Harriet born 1833 in Woodhouse ERY.

William Henry, born    Thorne, WRY. 13th Sept 1835. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI].

Ann, born Thorne, WRY. 5th Nov 1837. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI].

James, born Thorne, WRY. 12th May 1839. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI].

Sarah Ann, born Thorne, WRY.3 1st Jan 1841. Mother Sarah, no surname [IGI].

Mary Ann, born Crowle, Lincs. 8th Sept 1845

Oh you lucky thing - Scotland's a bit of an improvement on Scunthorpe!!

Thanks for the list of their children - the strange one is Harriet Douglass, born in Hull but census says Woodhouse, E Yks. So if it's E Yks it can't be the one in Sheffield. Is there a Woodhouse in E Yks? Presumably the Douglass is a middle name? Can you tie it up to an earlier family surname at all?

Anyway, I'll see what I can find at the RO.

The Harriet Douglass Ramsey is a strange one I agree.  I've only got back as far as John Ramsey's parents, so I haven't got any clues where the Douglass came from yet. 

John Ramsey / Ramsay's parents were Thomas Ramsey [c1775-?] and Jane Stogdale [c1781-1823].

It was a tough decision, Sunny Scunny or Speyside.... no contest.  Very wet today though.  A good day for genealogy.

Well, it looks as though the theory is holding water.  Grin

I found both marriages at the RO this morning:

1. Drypool, by licence. Nov 28 1824 Robert Chapman otp joiner & Sarah Morley of the parish of Holy Trinity, Hull, spinster.
He signed, she made her mark.
Witnesses: Thomas Morley, Adam Kenningham (latter a regular witness).

2. Sutton Feb 13 1827 John Ramsay, cordwainer, bachelor otp & Sarah Chapman, widow, otp.
he signed, she made her mark.
Witnesses: George Ashton, Susannah Wilson.

I didn't find a burial in Drypool for Robert Chapman between Nov 1824 and Feb 1827 - but they may have moved into a different parish.

So, with a bit of luck, not only is this the right marriage, but Thomas Morley might also be Sarah's dad (or brother  Undecided).

Incidentally, I don't think Harriet Douglass Ramsay is yours - the PR entry gives her parents as William & Sarah. I thought it was strange in the midst of all those baptisms in Thorne.

Once again thanks for your efforts.  I will sign this topic off as completed. 

One final word though on Harriet.  Maybe Harriet Douglass is the wrong person but there is a daughter Harriet in the household on the 1851 census!!

Mike,

In that case, perhaps it was a mistake on the part of the parish clerk, and he wrote down the wrong name for the father? We'll probably never know, but, if the census has the right age for Harriet and the right birthplace, then I'd be tempted to keep her!  Grin
