Marriage certificate for:
William Laidler, cordwainer of Bishop Wearmouth, son of Andrew Laidler, schoolmaster decd.
and
Isabella Brown of Stepney Skeel (?), daughter of Thomas Brown, tanner.
*
I'm still searching for the correct record for a marriage between a couple with the same names, probably around 1830.
*
Free to a good home.

Presumably the fathers are different? Do you have their names? Could he be a Laidlaw, married Scotland 1839?

Thanks for your interest Max.

I am trying to confirm the info below.
*
William Laidler born 24th March 1808 was the son of James and Elizabeth Laidler (Laidlaw)
*
Isabel (Isabella) Brown born 10th March 1801 was the daughter of Lancelot Brown and Elizabeth née Pender.
*
My great grandmother was their daughter Margaret Laidler born 20th April 1846. I have her birth cerificate with William and Isabel above as her parents.
*
Brothers and sisters of Margaret were born as early as 1830, but they could have had a different mother, I suppose.
*
Thanks

One step at a time! Would Margaret have had a sibling William, christened 13 Oct 1834 Hartburn Northumberland, (Familysearch, father William mother Isabella).
Later - I unfortunately don't have a current sub to FindMyPast so can't see further than the top level but there are some marriage records for Northumberland there where the dates for William and Isabella coincide in the 1820-1837 period. Fingers crossed someone can look for you. Might be an idea to post on the Northumberland thread, may get more eyes.

In the 1851 Census, Margaret 3 has a brother William who is 7. The baptism I have for him is -
"William 17 April 1843 s. of William Laidler & Isabella Brown, Grasslees, father a Shepherd." Harbottle Presbyterian Church
*
If there was another brother William born circa 1834, he could have died.

Thanks Max.
I did have a lot of this info before in with another thread.

It's still a mystery. I do have FindMyPast currently, but it hasn't uncovered any more clues.

Not that it is difficult or anything! I imagine it will have crossed your mind that perhaps they weren't actually married?
I'm taken with the idea that Lancelot born 1830 of Lancelot and Isabella Brown, seen in the 1851 as Lancelot Laidler the nephew of one Thomas Brown, was the first born of a Lancelot/Isabella marriage/liaison. Lancelot senior then dies 1831, Isabella meets and lives with William Laidler who graciously allows Lancelot to be known as Laidler, other children henceforth to be known as Laidler.
Conjecture but otherwise stumped!

It's a good story Max, but ...
I shall keep coming back to it in the hope that the truth prevails. The mysteries that I had five years ago have nearly all been solved and I hope it will be the case for the marriage of William and Isabella.

Thanks for your input.
