Hi little h,
I am away from home at the moment, so no access to my Kassell files, but will respond ASAP.  I have data on just about all Kassells up to 191.

Hi Bonnington,

Be aware that Penistone library is closed all day on Wednesdays and on Saturdays is only open in the morning.  The church is always open on Thursday and Saturday mornings and of course Sunday mornings but at other times you may find it locked, so if you are planning on coming another day send me a PM and we can try to arrange a time when I can ensure it is open for you.

Sam.

Hi Bonnington,

The actual transcript of St John's, Penistone MIs is in Penistone library but Barnsley archives certainly have them on a CD from my digitiing of them, so I suggest you try again.  If need be, ask to speak to a long-standing staff member.  However, Barnsley Archives shut to the public only yesterday in preparation for a move to the Town Hall next year, and I am not certain how well the staff are able to deal with enquiries.  If they are not able to help you, send me a PM of the name(s) you are researching and I will do a look-up next time I visit Penistone library.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Re: Thomas Harper - marriage

Patyp,

You can order a copy of the register entry for Thomas HARPER and Martha WILKINSON from the General Register Office website.  Click on 'Certificate Ordering Service.'

Alternatively, ask your nearest Family History Centre to obtain a copy of the Ardsley, marriage register for the relevant period.  On the FamilySearch website click on 'FamilySearch Centers' on top menu to find details of your local centre/center.
 
Be sure to specify Christ Church, Ardsley to distinguish it from East Ardsley and West Ardsley a few miles north of it.

The register copy will give exact date of marriage, fathers' names and occupations, and witnesses' names as well as details of bride and groom.

Sam.

FreeBMD has a marriage of a Thomas HARPER in Barnsley RD in Jul-Sep 1862 and of another man on the same page of the same marriage register but only one bride's name is given - Ann BROADHEAD.  It is possible that the other bride's name has not been transcribed for some reason, and that is probably why it is not given on Ancestry either.  This missing bride may well be Martha.  One possibility would be to look at the Ardsley marriage register for that period.

The Woodchurch site gives a marriage of John WELLER and Ann SKINNER at Great Chart on 20 Nov 1792 which is a possibility.  Thanks for mentioning it.

Thanks for prompt reply Bearkat.

I should know better than to repeat information without checking it.  Although not related I am trying to help descendants in three continents who descend from John and Anne WELLER.  One refers to "Richard son of John and Anne WELLER of Ashford who married 15 Nov 1829."  I realise that the date refers to the son Richard (born 1804) and not to John. who was born ca 1770.  Richard married Sarah HARRIS.

I did once check the kentarchaeology site but its WELLER information for Ashford unhelpfully didn't include forenames.  I will see if that has been rectified.

Thanks again, and apologies for posting a message without checking my facts.

If someone has access to Ashford PRs or BTs please could they kindly check surname of bride Anne who John WELLER married on 15 Nov 1829.

Thanks, Sam

Dobby helpfully suggests contacting WYAS.  Note that their Sheepscar premises are now closed and WYAS are due to re-open in Morley, probably in November.
