Devon Completed Lookup Requests / 1841 census please BAKER & MARTIN
« on: Tuesday 18 September 07 17:07 BST (UK)  »
Hi
Can any one help me to find more information about my 3 x Gt Grandparents via the 1841 census?  I have their marriage cert which shows they married in Colyton Parish Church on 4th October 1843. The info I have is as follows,,
John Baker.  born Farway Devon circa 1811.  Father Henry Baker, Farmer.
Mary Ann Martin.  born Broadclist circa 1811.  Father, Anthony Martin, Labourer.
Where were they in 1841, who are the mothers and siblings etc.
Also, in 1861, My 2 x Gt Grandmother, ( Mary Ann Baker ) at the age of 13, was not listed as a student but as a Lacemaker. Even more surprising, her younger sister, Harriett at the age of just 9 was also described as a Lacemaker. It does explain why, at the age of 38, 25 years later, my Gt Gt Grandmother signed her marriage cert with a X.  Was the Colyton area known for  hand made lace in the mid 19th century ?
Many thanks,
Ian,
Cumbria.

Lancashire Lookup Requests / 1841 Census look up please. PETER STREET
« on: Tuesday 05 June 07 21:50 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to gather more information about my 3 x Gt Grandfather, PETER STREET born about 1789,    If still alive, he would have been 52 in 1841.   All I have is his name on my Gt Gt Grandfather's ( SAMUEL Street) marriage cert.
SAMUEL  was born in WARRINGTON in 1814 and married Ellen Yates (b 1817) in St Elphins Parish Church, Warrington, in 1836.    PETER was present at the Wedding so he might have lived in the Warrington area in 1841, but I have no evidence to support that theory.  I know it's a long shot but any help or advice would be very much appreciated

Hi,
Does any one have the facility to look for a baptism for my 3x Grandmother AMELIA BRIDGE who was born in Sth Petherton, Bridgwater in 1813.  I have a copy of the 1840 marriage cert but the clerk has written "full age" and put a line through the space for Fathers name. After her husbands death in 1852 AMELIA HEADFORD (Bridge) became the Innkeeper of the Exchange Inn at Puriton. So far I have been unable to discover AMELIA'S parents. Any help or guidance would be much appreciated.

Regards,
Ian Headford,

Somerset / HEADFORD'S of Bridgwater. is there an Irish connection??
« on: Tuesday 05 June 07 12:58 BST (UK)  »
Hi,
Before I started my research, I thought my Headford ancestors were from the Manchester/Salford area.
, and before that possibly the town of Headford in Southern Ireland. However I now know they were from Bridgwater,
Somerset, but I have hit the preverbal brick wall with my 3 X Gt Grandfather William Headford, a Master Mariner, born Bridgwater in 1793.
, as there does not appear to be a baptism record.
Does any one know if the Somerset  Headfords have any ancestral connections to the Irish town of the same name.
Kind Regards to all.

Devon Completed Lookup Requests / Help with birth Registration district
« on: Thursday 22 February 07 13:06 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
I would like to purchase a copy birth cert for my Gt Gt Grandmother so that I can trace her parents.  She was Mary Ann Baker, born circa 1849 in COLYTON DEVON.  Can any one tell me the probable registration district that would have issued the certificate?
Mary Ann Baker appears to have been an extremely popular name in Devon during that period, some of the possibles are,,  Axminster, Taughton, South Molton, Wellington Som, Chard, St Thomas, Tiverton, Honiton etc.
 
Thanks,
Ian Headford,

Lancashire / Rochdale,burial/grave search Help.
« on: Monday 24 July 06 13:32 BST (UK)  »
Hi, can any one help me find the burial record and grave location in Rochdale, of my Grandmother?
Mary Ann Casson (nee Headford) died, aged 22, on 11th March 1914, at 8 Kelsall Street, Rochdale.
The Rochdale Cemetery Service have searched their records but found no record.
Where else could she have been buried in Rochdale? and how can I trace their records on line?  She was not interned in the Headford Family grave in Salford.
Any help or advice would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Ian Headford.
