Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: Robert Gregg/Craig 3rd Great Grandfather

« on: Wednesday 03 February 21 23:01 GMT (UK) »

Hi

I have just come across your post today, Amelia Gregg/Craig sister of Robert is my 3rd Great Grandmother, I have recently been researching the family.

I believe Robert was christened at Wath upon Dearne, where Mary Ann Hargreaves family came from, even though on the census it says he was born at Cheshire.

I think our 4th Great Grandfather George Craig is the one buried at Handsworth Church 7/4/1840 age 40, died at Four Lane Ends (there is no record of this death on GRO) so I have just applied to Sheffield Registrar but unfortunately they haven't been able to find any death record. (Gutted)

I have found a George Craig birth 26/11/1898 Attercliffe Father Robert mother Mary.
plus other children listed below
Joseph Craig 1801
Matthew Creag 1803
Robert Creag 1805-1815 (buried Handsworth Church)
Mary Creag 1805
Charles Creag 1808
Benjamin Creag 1809
Thomas Creig 1811
Francis Creig 1813

Just to let you know I got the above information from transcriptions. A lot of the above names correspond in my case with the next generation.

I see you mentioned a scottish connection, just wondered how you came to this please.

let me know what you think about my finds

Best wishes
Chris

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Hannah Elliott/Copley/Saxton Thorpe Hesley

« on: Wednesday 03 February 21 18:08 GMT (UK) »

Hi I am looking for help with the above and her parents,

Hannah Elliott bn 1816 Ecclesfield (per Census 1841 to 1891) death 1897 Barnsley
married Michael Copley in Barnsley in 1834
Their Children were
Charles Copley christened Ecclesfield 4/1/1835 before GRO
Moses Copley Christened Ecclesfield 30/4/1837 before GRO
Samuel Copley GRO 22 451 1839 Rotherham MMN Gothard
David Copley cannot find a record for him
Alfred Copley GRO 22 476 1845 Rotherham MMN Elliott
Edward Copley GRO 22 456 1847 Rotherham MMN Elliott
Michael Copley GRO 22 553 1850 Rotherham MMN Elliott
John Copley GRO 9c 373 1853 Rotherham MMN Gothard (Born after fathers death)

Hannah then married George Saxton 1855 in Sheffield They had 2 Children George MMN Elliott
and Clara I cannot find on GRO
I decided to get this certificate Hannah's fathers name is Samuel Gothard I believe he married a Sophia Elliott 5/7/1818 at Rotherham

I'm guessing that Hannah was illegitimate as she seems to have been born before parents marriage.
but I can't find any birth for Hannah mother Sophia
And I can't find any birth record for Sophia Elliott, on the census 1841 to 1861 she was born at Chapeltown Yorkshire

Any help would be much appreciated

Hi Rosie, thank you I feel it is probably the correct person, as his son Joseph died in 1830 at four lane ends, I just can't understand why I cannot find any record on GRO, would love to get a certificate

Hi

I'm looking for help with George Gregg / Craig

He married Mary Hargreaves at Handsworth church 5 January 1818

Mary was christened at Wath upon dearne either 1797 or 1799
In 1841 and 1851 Mary Gregg was living at Handsworth with her family but no George.

But no George Gregg, I decided to look for George Craig and at Handsworth again there is George Craig buried 7 April 1840 age 41, I have looked on GRO but am struggling to find this death, any help would be appreciated.

I also found a birth of a George Craig at Sheffield Cathedral birth 26 Nov 1798 baptised 17 Feb 1799 parents Robert Craig and Mary.

Children were
Amelia BP Wath 1819
Robert BP Pointon 1826
Joseph. 1828-1830 (Handsworth)

I did look around the churchyard, I got the death records from Register of burials in the parish of Dronfield, 1870-1904, the heading on Ancestry is Church of England Burials 1813-1991.

I will ring and try to find more information

Hi

I know they are both buried in Dronfield but i'm wanting to know where abouts please.

I have Samuel's burial on 1/4/1891 at Dronfield age 66, and Mary Eliza's burial on 26/12/1903 at Dronfield age 82. Awhile ago I did go and look around the Churchyard but I couldn't find a headstone.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you
