I know some years have passed since this thread was started, but thought I would include this information as the Crabb family were living as servants with one of my lot (Wilkes-Fieldhouse) at the time of the 1861 Census.

1861 CENSUS

Sub-registration district: St David


SERVANT/COOK/DOMESTIC?
Caroline Crabb 46 (may be wife/widow of Benjamin CRABB, wool-comber from 1841 census)

m. Hugo Francis Hawkins (aka Francis).
dau Kate Hawkins m. Charles Fletcher

Hi
I'm new here! I'm trying to find information on my Grandfather - Roy Crabb. I think he was born circa 1932ish and he was initially married to Joan Crabb. I'm looking for more information on her too. Any help would be much appreciated 😁

Welcome to RootsChat.  :

I can see the marriage of Roy and Joan in June quarter 1957 in the Weymouth Registration District - but I think that you should know that RootsChat has a policy of not naming those people still alive.

You can use FreeBMD to look for birth, marriage and death registrations.

Thanks Bumble B!
Unfortunately, both are deceased and I never met my Grandmother... is this the place to see if anyone may have links?

The primary function of RootsChat is not to establish links between close family members, but it has happened on more than one occasion.  Most members are researching their own family histories, as you can see from the previous messages in this thread.

If you are trying to go further back in time, then we can hopefully be of assistance to you.
