Christopher Whitehead (b 1818) parents
« on: Sunday 04 January 15 17:17 GMT (UK) »
I would like to know more details about the parents of Christopher Whitehead. 
Christopher Ancestry Profile: http://ancstry.me/1rTFfai

Christopher Whitehead
    My 3rd great grandfather
    Birth 13 Jun 1818 in Burley in Wharfedale, Yorkshire, England
    Death 31 Dec 1894 in Ilkley, Great Britain

Mary (Christopher's wife)
    Birth 10 Mar 1827 in Burley in Wharfedale, Yorkshire, England
    Death 19 Apr 1917 in Ilkley, Great Britain

I know his parents names were William Whitehead and Mary.  But that is all I know.  Can anyone help me find his parents birthdates, his mother's maiden name, etc.?

I would also like to know what Christopher's wife Mary's maiden name was.  Can anyone help with this too?

Thank you so much,
Robert

Yes you are right! as they have the same Volume and page number!   Also, I know there grandkids from two different children married as well.

Where can I find this XXIII 452 document?

Do you think they were first cousins or siblings?

Do you mean you want to order the marriage certificate?

They could be related - they're more likely to be cousins as marrying your sibling is illegal! Or they could just share a name.

The volume and page number are part of the information you need to order the certificate. You also need Registration District, Year and Quarter. Best place to buy is at www.gro.gov.uk..
Suggest you get the cert for your double Whitehead marriage to check that this is not just a transcription error. The cert will also give names for their fathers..
