Can't find a birth record; Jane Harland
« on: Friday 14 September 07 20:55 BST (UK) »
Have tried in vain to find a birth record for Jane Harland apparently born 1845/6 in Knaresborough.
She first appears in Bradford on 1851 census, aged 5, living with her parents Michael Harland, occupation Wheelright,b. 1804 and Jane b. 1807.
Have exhausted b.m.d's on Ancestry, there is nothing on the IGI and am now at a loss as to where to look next.

Have you just looked on the transcribed ones or have you checked through the original images too?

Yes I saw that one too but when I viewed the image it looked like "Anne" to me.
Did you look at the image too?  I may be wrong.

Hi Joanne

You are absolutely correct it does say Anne on the original image (and it appears alphabetically before the next Harland name which is Christopher)

Back to the drawing board ;D

Sorry :-\

New eyes are always good and thanks for even being "on the drawing board" in the first place.

I found a Thomas and a John Harland in the IGI with parents Michael and Jane ! do you have them ??

I'm such a "dufuss " with batch numbers etc .... but I wondered if you could find her that way !!

Have done both, and have a genes contact who is also searching...to no avail. Daft thing is  the contact may or may not be related depending on the right birth details of Jane Harland. We have even met for coffee as we live in close proximity, compared possible family resemblances, but the uncertainty without the evidence of a certificate sort of "hangs over things" if you know what I mean.

Yes I have them, they seem to be the only 2 of Michael and Janes children appearing on the IGI, do you think this may indicate that the other children were baptised elsewhere, and not neccessarily covered by the LDs?
