Hi all,
I have been looking into my Wrigley family of Manchester & have found the following:
My 4x gt grandmother Elizabeth Wrigley (1776-1832) married Samuel Dean (1774-1834) in 1809. Her parents (my 5x gt grandparents were James Wrigley & Elizabeth Miking who married on 30th Oct 1770 at Manchester Cathedral.
Elizabeth Miking (my 5x gt grandmother) (1744-1815) was baptised on 6th Jan 1745 at the above mentioned Cross Street Presbyterian Chapel to a James Miking (my 6x gt grandfather).
What I need however is the following if possible:
1. could sks soul look up the marriage of James Wrigley & Elizabeth Miking please? Lancs Parish Clerk marriages for Manchester Cathedral start in 1778 & I don't have any subscriptions at present.
2. I have found 3 baptisms taking place at Cross Street Presbyterian Chapel as follows:
Margaret Miking bapt 20th Jan 1739 to a Miking. (No fathers christian name given on familysearch)
Ann Miking bapt 13th May 1744 to a James Miking.
Elizabeth Miking (My 5x gt grandmother) bapt 6th Jan 1745 to a James Miking.
2a. Are there any other children baptised by this James? The above three are the only ones that show up on familysearch & Cross Street Presbyterian Chapel does not appear on Lancs Parish Clerk, nothing on FreeReg either.
2b. I cannot find a marriage for a James Miking at all, which possibly would have taken place sometime between 1730 & 1738 unless there were any earlier children. Did marriages take place at Cross Street Presbyterian Chapel? The Manchester City Councils website only shows details for baptism & burial records for this chapel. Can anyone find a marriage for James please?
Many thanks in advance.
Kind regards
David
