Hi there

I'm working on my wife's ancestry in the Burnley area. Ann YEADON married a Colne butcher called William BERRY yet her two children remained as YEADONs. The censuses below indicate that he was their father. Anybody got any ideas?

The IGI  suggests that she may have married William in 1830

   
Ann YEADON

Birth  1812   Burnley, Lancashire, England

Marriages  William Berry    1830   Burnley, Lancashire, England

The censuses of 1851 and 1861 indicate that they did marry

Ann BERRY, boarder, widow, 49, Nurse, Ingleton, Yorks


In the 1861 census Ann's birthplace is given as Ingleton and a further search of the IGI indicate her parents maybe  Thomas and Kesia YEADEN. Does anybody have any info on this family?

Thanks in anticipation

IGI indicates

   
ANN YEADEN

I'm sorry to be the one to say it but putting a post on here that asks for information on the following names (followed by a list of forty ) does nothing for the site. It has already created an unwieldy posting that has now got 13,642 visits and 84 replies. Despite being connected with eight of the names on that list I shall not be bothering to trawl through all the pages that will undoubtedly be created.
Surely it would make more sense to copy your posting and include a different  name each time you post...say one every day? The technology is there to do it.

...but I suppose it could just be a world record attempt. McWHIRTER family anyone?

Hi

I am researching the RICHARDS family primarily of Cornwall and later Lancashire. However I have been trying to ascertain just where Charles RICHARDS (b circa 1777) married his wife Susan/Susanna/Susannah MOORE of Loddiswell Devon b circa 1777).
The OPC for Loddiswell cannot find any reference to a marriage between 1794-1805 and the couple do not seem to have married in or around Paul, the parish church of Newlyn in Cornwall where they lived. The couple appear on the 1841 census and on the 1851 (below)
Paul ED1f
Folio 312 Page 26
100,Street An Nowan,
Charles Richards,Head,M,69,,Shoemaker,Paul Cornwall,,
Susan Richards,Wife,M,,73,Spinner W,Loddiswell Devon,,
Mary Ann Willis,Grndau,M,,23,Fisherman's Wife,Paul Cornwall,,
The couple both died in the 1850s (Susannah 1852 and Charles 1859) they are buried at Paul.

Any info or ideas about where they might have married would be welcome.

For anyone interested in the MOORE family (presumably of Loddiswell) there are other entries in a RICHARDS family bible regarding this family.

Nicholas MOORE b 1830 Oct 2 died March 12 1836
Elizabeth MOORE died April 5 1836
Susan MOORE died November 1856 (?) [if this is the Susan MOORE of above then this date does not fit with the date of her death recorded as 2 May 1852]

Thanks in advance
