Title: Further Research Help Needed
Post by: Naizam on Wednesday 15 January 20 21:14 GMT (UK)

Hello all !

I'm trying to track down the maiden name of an ancestor. I found this marriage record on Family Search:

Code: [Select]

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QGT6-5PKB
Note that the brides mother's name is Elizabeth Tirrell. When I search on Ancestry, every other tree lists the name as Elizabeth Robbins.

I can't find an image of this marriage on Family Search or Ancestry - not sure why? I'd like to confirm that the mother's maiden name is Tirrell or Robbins but not sure how to do this or where to search next?

Any ideas?

There's nothing about the brides mother on there.

Thanks Pauline - so Elizabeth Tyrell is a witness, but may also be the mother of the bride?

You can view the marriage record of William Harrison and Elizabeth Robbins (12th September 1783) on FamilySearch
