Hi all,
Can anybody check the marriage cert for Ann Knowles to Thomas Aldridge . They were married at St Nicholas Church on 21 Jan 1834 and I can see the record on LOPC but wondered if on the actual certificate if it named her father?
Many thanks

Civil registration didn't start until 1837,so all you'll get on anything before that are a couple of witnesses,no parents name,ages ,or professions.

Only extra info on parish record
Thomas was a blacksmith
They were married by banns
Ann was a spinster
No fathers recorded
-
Ohhh Ok I thought that might be the case as just trying to figure out her father as I have 2 possibles !!!
thanks for your help.

Children of Thomas Aldridge and Ann, Elizabeth, John, James, Thomas and Margaret
you have 2 possible Ann's what are the names of the parents and siblings of those two, is there a naming pattern in the families you have researched
-
Hi Radcliff & others,
After a break from research I am now back on it.
Thomas Aldridge's parents are John and Elizabeth.
I have 2 options for Ann Knowles either James & Mary or William & Ann. On her census info she always put down "Kirkdale" as place of birth rather than Liverpool or Lancs so I was hoping that would help but to date I am still confused.
I have her children as being John/James/Ann/Thomas/Henry/Amelia/William.
Thanks

See earlier thread http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=770557.0 for my thoughts on clues from the naming convention in this case

Thanks Shaun J for the clues. I just get confused when there are so many Knowles families around! I reckon her parents should be James & Mary Knowles & will update my tree.
Even worse as I now have to start on the Jones' side of the family ;)
