Hi
I am looking for the wedding on Jonathan Rowlands & Elizabeth Craggs @1791. I think that Elizabeth was born in Chester Le Street as their son Jonathan was born there in 1801. I do not know where the father was born.
Many thanks
David
Sorry if I am in the wrong place. This is my first ever post on such a web-site or any other for that matter.
Are you looking for Elizabeth Craggs with connections to Auckland Saint Helen? I have read the whole thread and am confused.
There are almost 40 members of the Craggs family in my records including 6 Elizabeth Craggs in and around the Parish of Auckland Saint Helen going back to William Craggs (bap. 1660) of Auckland Saint Helen parish from a Witton le Wear family. His wife was Ann but we do not have her maiden name. This count of 40 includes all males and females baptised as Craggs but not including wives acquiring the name.
ELIZABETH CRAGGS 2 Dec 1768.
The one that may fit is Elizabeth Craggs bap at Auckland Saint Helen on 2 Dec 1768. This Elizabeth's parents were William Craggs (bap 1740) of Witton le Wear and Elizabeth Adamson. As this Elizabeth was a younger sister of my ancestor William Craggs so I have no further details of her.
The next Elizabeth Craggs in my records does not appear until 1842 but her siblings were born in a narrow strip of the North Riding of Yorkshire, south of the River Tees, mainly in Shiney Row, Manfield but some in Hurworth, Neasham and lastly in Brotton.
Is any of this of use to you? I would be happy to send you a partial gedcom if it is.
My apologies if this is all irrelevant.
