Hi,
I'm researching the Redgate Family from Nottingham.
I have got to Alexander Redgate b. 1838, his son Alexander b. 1860, his son Arthur b. 1896, his son George b. 1936 (My Father).
For most of the 19th Century the family lived around the Basford and Radford areas, making a living as Lace makers.
My father died when I was young and I lost contact with his family. I have found the greatest difficulty is not tracing my roots in the 19th Century, but tracing roots in the 20th.
Anyone who can help? or who is also researching the same family name, I would love to hear

Do you have any of the census for your family 1871 to 1901? If not I can do some lookups for you.

it appears that you wrote this link a long time ago.
my mother was a redgate and my father did a lot of collecting Redgate names, we put them into a paf file.
it includes alexander redgate and his wife eliz crawford. childeren thomas and emma but we have no further links.
do you want the paf file?

Was hoping someone might have details of the marriage between John Redgate born 1872 in Bulwell,and Sarah Dobbs born 1875 in Hucknall,the marriage being about 1900.In the 1901 census they were living at Nether Hallam Sheffield,and in 1911 census Ilkeston Notts.
Marriage details assumed from the censuses,I cannot find the marriage record.
From family memories Sarah Dobbs married a Jack Redgate and they lived in Ilkeston,so things seem to tie up.
Any information on the marriage, or of John Redgate would be much appreciated.
