Hi,
If your relative was born any time before official registration began in1837 then there wont be a birth certificate. You will have to look in the parish register or on the IGI for his christening record.

Hello again
I've just had a quick look on the IGI and there is a christening of a Richard Wilkinson on 22 September 1823 in Sculcoates, the parents are given as Charles and Ann Wilkinson, might not be the right person, I'll leave that for you to decide.

Hi, I see you have an interest in Richard Charles Wilkinson, born Thorne 1823. My interest is with his brother Joseph Wilkinson. I don't remember if we have communicated before. I do have details of Richard in the 1841,1851 and 1861 Census, if you do not have these. As regards to their father William and possible mother Sarah. I am no further on than you as there are several William Wilkinson in the 1841 Census for Yorkshire, which may be him. If you have anything more than I have, I would be interested in finding out. Please drop me an email at Email address removed by moderator to prevent spam - please contact by personal message kind regards, Maurice Hamson, Nelson, New Zealand.

Is Royston near thorne, as there are 3 Sept. christenings on the IGI for 1824, 26 & 29 for a Wm. & Sarah as well,...entirley spec of course as don't have access to the censuses...and there were no other christenings under that batch number in Thorne...I take it that Richard wasn't in a household with a father William?...
These do have a surname name the mother, but you'd have to look about to prove
anything...J.J.

Hi JJ,
Thanks for your reply.
Tha parish records show Richard Charles was born on a barge in Thorne Quay. According to his marriage certificate his father William was a shipwright, so it was possible for him to have travelled around for work. The 1841 census shows Richard staying with a young family called Smith in Jennings Street, Hull, which is the street he was married from in 1846.
There are a few marriages for a William and Sarah in the Hull area (which is where I was led to believe they were from) one even to a Sarah Smith, but they married in 1825.
Looking on the IGI and entering the parents names, it shows 58 births around the Yorkshire area. Royston, I think is about 40 miles from Thorne but then there are lots of others within travelling distance of Thorne or Hull, especially when they were using barges.
With your information it helped me to look at the batches and find these others, so if you have any more ideas they would be very welcome.
Thanks again for your help. This is one brick wall I would love to knock down.

As the IGI isn't complete....it is hard to use it as a perfect solution...naturally the birth above did not have a surname for Sarah...and no others within the batch file to say. oh, there were several births before, or several births after to help pinpoint a tentative marriage date... I also assume there are several shipwrights who could be Wm on the censuses, then? ( or none  )
I only did a quick scan of Wms & Sarahs who already had births in 1823...
Travelling parents are really tough to find without some link...I wish I had ancestry but I haven't yet ...One of these days when I know it will be worthwhile time-wise....
