John Oldknow and Charlotte
« on: Saturday 06 November 10 18:45 GMT (UK) »
I have John Oldknow in 1841 with Charlotte Oldknow presumably his wife,and a bunch of children living in Nottingham.John born Scotland, his wife & all the children except the youngest born out of county.However on subsequent census the children are born Beeston and Charlotte (who dies 1858)on the 1851 is born Carlton Nottinghamshire.
John's father was James Oldknow who came from Smalley in Derbyshire was in the militia in Scotland and married there,returning to England with his family.
I have found a marriage for John Oldknow to Charlotte Lees in Duffield June 1821 and baptism of James to John & Charlotte Oldknow in  Sept 1821 at Wesleyan Methodist in Belper.
I am not at all sure that I have the right Charlotte,
would the marriage register give me any more information.

Hi

Unfortunately - marriages for that period do not show the type of identifying features you need here

If you can find a birth registration for one of their children born after 1837 - a copy of the birth cert will confirm Charlotte's maiden name

Unfortunately the youngest I have found was born 1833,so no help there.
I was hoping there might be witnesses or at least which parish they were from.
