Hi

This is my first time using this site am very excited.

Can anyone help me with any details on Frances Lawson Hinds  B1856 Maryport. She married in March 1877 at cockermouth Joseph Mitchinson. My cousin went searching  for Joseph's grave in Christchurch allonby and found it had closed and half of the cemetry gone. Has anyone got access to any records of burials?

Also in 1851 and 62 census I am unable to find Frances' father (Mr Hinds) who wa married to a Frances B1818 Liverpool (a dressmaker).  He was always on ship and the census said that he was a captain or master seaman. Again, can anyone help with finding out which ship he couldv'e been on and his first name. I have also been told he was black which is funny as my family are white, but a cousin has just discovered she has black blood cells.

Many thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to read this.

Kerrie
