I am trying to find the death record for my 3x great grandfather James Pickles.
He was born on 5 March 1819 in Haworth, West Yorkshire and was the third child of William and Sarah Pickles (formerly Naylor).
He married Mary Anne Heaton on 13 September 1841 and had six children between 1845 and 1858. The youngest one is my 2x great grandfather was born on 2 November 1858. I have his birth certificate.
He appears on the 1851 census along with his wife and children but after that I can find no trace so I am assuming he died before the 1861 census.
I have looked several times on ancestry but I can't find anything that fits.
Can anyone help?
Thanks.

Hi,
1861 census has a James (b 1819 Haworth) and Mary Pickles with children Mary, John, Ann, Martha, Elizabeth and James living at Mytholmes Mill, Haworth.
RG 9 3228 66 18
Is this the family?

Yes, it is :-[
Maybe I got my date wrong, sorry.
-
I mean 1871, sorry :-[
On this census the children are listed with their mother Mary.

Hi,
Mary shown as a widow so James died 1861 - 1871 or he's left her and she a "widow" to save face.
1881 census she is also shown as a widow.

Have you eliminated the two James Pickles deaths in the 1st quarter of 1863, in Keighley R.D (both on freeBMD) ??
-
Maybe he was registered twice?
I'll chase it up next week.

Hi, I think that this may be a connection with my Pickles family. My great grandmother on my grandfather Harwood side is a Pickles from the Hebdon Bridge and your names sound familiar. Do you recall any Harwoods?
-
Not my family, sorry.

This is now solved.
Please can someone close or remove this thread?
Thanks.

If someone else comes along in a few years time looking for a James Pickles, then this thread could be of use to them. It would be of even more use if you added his death so that they could perhaps eliminate him from their research, OR try and contact you if they are related to you.

I have a Pickles / Heaton marriage in 1843 of a couple from Haworth -- wonder if they are related?
Hannah Pickles (daughter of John Pighills/Pickles & Sarah Barraclough) married John Heaton (son of Abraham Heaton & Mary) on 22nd November 1843 at St Peter's Bradford
Hannah also had a brother named Heaton Pickles -- so was there another Heaton / Pickles connection somewhere?

My 3x great grandfather James Pickles was born on 5 March 1819 in Haworth, West Riding of Yorkshire, the son of William Pickes and his wife Sarah Naylor.
James died in Bradford, West Riding of Yorkshire on 10 February 1868 as the result of an accident.
His wife was Mary Ann Pickles (maiden name Heaton) and they married on 13 September 1841 at the parish church in Keighley.
James' siblings were;
Susannah (1815)
Jennett (1822)
Betty (1829)
William (1829). Don't know if he's Betty's twin or if the date I have for a joint christening.
William (1832). I am assuming until I know otherwise that the first William died.
John Thomas (1834)
Mary (1840)

None of those names are currently in my tree
But with the coincidences of names, place and dates, I feel they must be related somehow
More investigations needed!
