Cork / Michael Connors & Mary Callaghan
« on: Monday 24 March 14 08:53 GMT (UK) »
I have been searching for over 30 years for the origins of my great grandfather William O'Connor/Connors.
From his 1883 NZ marriage certificate (the only source document that I have been able to find which gives any details of his origins) he stated that his parents were Michael Connors, a mariner & is wife Mary formerly Callaghan, and that he was born in County Cork. From other records it is clear that he would have been born in about 1852.
I'm afraid that is all the information I have - its not much for 30 years of trying!
Nevertheless, I wonder if anyone has come across a William O'Connor/Connors, born circa 1852 somewhere in County Cork with parents Michael Connors & Mary Callaghan?
Any help very much appreciated.

Wiltshire Lookup Requests / South Marston marriage lookup
« on: Sunday 06 October 13 00:03 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone has access to the South Marston marriage registers.
Specifically I am looking for a transcription of the full marriage entry for Thomas Wimblett and Catherine Benjamin who were married at South Marston on 24 September 1679. I am hoping that the parish of origin for each may be given.
Many thanks

Thanks very much indeed for those entries.
Was there a circa 1654 baptism for a Rebecca Buck?

Cambridgeshire / Oakington Parish Register Lookup
« on: Sunday 28 August 11 10:13 BST (UK) »
I wonder if anyone has access to the Oakington registers. In particular I am looking for references to the Buck family of Westwick in Oakington. Is there a baptism for a Rebecca Buck circa 1654, and her siblings John, Samuel and Hatton probably born after 1654.
I am also interested in any burials, especially for Rebecca's father Thomas in 1702 & her grandfather John Buck in 1680.
Many thanks
Robert
