Shropshire Lookup Requests / Census lookup Harrington
« on: Sunday 06 October 13 14:21 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

I'm trying to find Benjamin Harrington (born 1822 Church Aston) in the 1851, 1861, 1871 census.

In 1841, he was in census living at Wellington, Shropshire
In 1881, he was living in daughter Mary's household as a widower living in Lilleshall, Shropshire

Regards,

CnB

Do you know if Francis Dennison and William Lawrence were the regular church witnesses, or Are they family/friends and appear once in parish marriage register?

Thanks Karenlee,

That's great, much appreciated.  Gives me a bit more information to investigate.

There is a possible marriage on IGI for a John Whitelock to Dorothy Nattras 6 May 1784 East Witton, Yorkshire, and children Elizabeth (1786), Mary (1788), William (1790).

Can't find a burial of a Dorothy Whitelock between 1790 and 1791 though.

If anyone has access to the relevant parish records,  i'm interested in the marriage of John Whitelock to Hannah Pickard 26 June 1791, Harewood.  I have found this on IGI site, but no further details are given, can anyone help with further details, I.e. were there any witnesses or were they married after banns or by licence?
 From IGI search they seem to have had children baptised in neighbouring Kirkby Overblow, Rachel (1792), Emma (1794), William (1798), Sarah (1801), Hannah (1805), John (1809).

Occupation Interests / Re: Preceptor???
« on: Sunday 08 September 13 10:39 BST (UK)  »
Do you think the modern OED definition is valid for 1813?
He was later described as being a farmer, not sure what a teacher would be teaching in rural 1813 north Yorkshire, as a full time occupation at least?

Occupation Interests / Preceptor???

Hi,

I have come across an ancestor who's occupation in his daughters baptism of 1813 was given as 'Preceptor', does anyone know what on earth that could mean?  He was living in Thornton (Stainton in Cleveland), North Yorkshire at the time, which I gather was a pretty much rural area.
