7 Market Square was the business of Naisby & Ainscow, Drapers.

William Naisby 1831 and Joseph Ainscow 1826.

The partnership was dissolved in 1871 - notice in the London Gazette 3 March 1871.
The business was carried on by William Naisby.

It must have been a good location / profitable.  Joseph Ainscow retired at age 45 and left an estate of 5000 pounds.

Thank you so much Christine

I found the entry on Page 111 of the Burials register of Yarmouth, St Nicholas, for the years 1880 - 84.

Whilst the burial is recorded at St Nicholas, the actual burial would have been at the cemetery in use at that time.

Any idea of the cemetery locations in use in 1881 in Great Yarmouth ?

I have tried looking at the Norfolk Record Office for info, but cant find that kind of reference.

Thanks again..............   Lindsay

Wilcoxon : Thanks so much for the considerable effort you have done for us here.

After nearly 30 years of research for this family line - this is as close as we will probably get of an educated guess as to the baptism record for my 2nd Great Grandfather.  The baptism record of 14 Jun 1821 for Richard Parry with parents Samuel and Margaret you have provided is now part of our ancestry.

And pointing out the Freemen of Chester entry is also a nice find - thank you - we didnt know of that particular resource.

The Cheshire marriage record for Samuel Parry of 2 Jul 1820 to Margaret Jones has him as a Cabinet Maker.  The parish church is in the vicinity of Trinity Street which ties in with 1841 census and the newly discovered Freemen entry.

And the links to the Ellesmere PARRYS we had already allowed - Richard Parry marrying Mary Davies 13 Sep 1792 (IGI). Children : Mary, Samuel, John & Margaret.

When Samuel is married to Margaret Jones in 1820, the witnesses are John Parry & Margaret Parry - brother & sister.  Brother John is married on the same day in the same church.  A double wedding.

Our tree is on Ancestry for public access as AINSCOW_PARRY Family Tree for anyone wanting to follow this thread.

Thanks again Wilcoxon !!

Re: Richard Parry.  Looking for his birth details and also for his parents details - from Wrexham.
His occupation is always described as Cabinet Maker / Journeyman.

The facts:

1881 : Richard Parry died 31 July and the death certificate gives his age as 60 years.  ie DOB 1821.

1881 : Census.  Has age as 59 years, ie DOB 1822.  Place of birth : North Wales

1871 : Census.  Has age as 49 years, ie DOB 1822.  Place of birth : Wrexham, Wales

1861 : Census.  Has age as 39 years, ie DOB 1822.  Place of birth : Wrexham, Denbighshire, Wales

1851 : Census.  Has age as 28 years. ie DOB 1823.  Place of birth : Chester, Cheshire

1851 : Marriage.  Father's name : Samuel Parry / Cabinet Maker

1858 : Marriage.  Father's name : Samuel Parry / Cabinet Maker

Guesswork:

1841 : Census.  A Chester entry for Trinity Street has 3 people:

Margaret Parry - Age 45 years (1796) - place of birth "Y" (Chester).  Possibly a Guilder
Richard Parry - Age 25 years (1816) - place of birth "Y" (Chester).  Cabinet Maker
Samuel Parry - Age 15 years (1826) - place of birth "Y" (Chester).  Guilder

1851 : Census.  A Chester entry for Trinity Street has 2 people:

Samuel Parry - Age 55 (1796) - place of birth : Salop, Ellesmere.  Married - Head and Joiner (Journeyman)
Margaret Parry - Age 56 (1795) - place of birth : Denbigh, Wrexham.  Married - Wife

There is a Cheshire Parish Register Project entry for a marriage : Samuel Parry & Margaret Jones.  2 July 1820.
Witnesses : John Parry and Margaret Parry.  (John Parry also gets married at the same church on the same day).
St John The Baptist Church - Chester

I have used the 1841 Census + the Cheshire marriage of 1820 to make a guess that the parents of Richard are Samuel Parry and Margaret Jones.

Also, IGI has an un-sourced entry:

Samuel Parry (abt 1797) and Margaret (abt 1799), Married abt 1818.  Both of Wrexham, Denbighshire, Wales.

Children:

Richard Parry, christening 17 Jun 1821, Wrexham, Denbighshire, Wales
Maria Parry, christening 9 Feb 1820, Wrexham, Denbigshire, Wales
Samuel Parry, christening 1 Sep 1821, Brymbo, Denbigshire, Wales

Anyone able to confirm a Wrexham birth for a Richard Parry - with father Samuel - abt 1821 ?  Is IGI correct having sighted a Wrexham Parish record ?

Thanks and regards,
