James Graves and Mary Fitch marriage
« on: Tuesday 25 July 17 19:29 BST (UK) »
Hello,

James was born in 1804, in Radwinter. Mary was born in 1816, also in Radwinter. They would have married before 1846, most likely in Radwinter.

I would appreciate any information, parentage or anything,

Thanks,

Adam

You have a discrepancy. The title says James Graves yet the text in the first post says Charles.

If James is correct then

Name James Graves
Residence Place: Radwinter, Essex, England
Christening Date: 11 May 1803
Christening Place: Radwinter, Essex, England
Father's Name: James Graves
Mother's Name: Mary
James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.

Sorry, Charles was their son. I always get the two confused. Thanks for the information.

Thanks. That must be the one. Fitch was given on my ancestor's birth record in 1846, but who knows how these things get onto records.

It is possible you picked the wrong Charles Graves

New GRO index
Charles Graves registered 1845 Saffron Walden has mothers maiden name as HALLS that matches parents James and Mary.
There is another Charles Graves registered 1846 Saffron Walden mothers maiden name FITCH

Which one is yours, if its FITCH then James and Mary quoted are not his parents.

I'm honestly not sure. It could be either of them now I see it. I'll look at the mother's names for his siblings.
Lipman family of Aldgate - ends with Lewis Lipman (d. 1871, Bethnal Green), son of John Lipman 'late of Glasgow' (1856)
McGregor family of Fodderty - ends with Alexander McGregor (b. 1765, Fodderty), son of Murdoch McGregor and Kate Stewart
