The Common Room / marriage certificate of CAWKWELL and ROBINSON
« on: Friday 02 February 07 19:36 GMT (UK)  »
SOMEONE PLEASE HELP: IVE HIT A BRICK WALL!
I have a marrage certificate which gives the following details:
date: 26 July 1841; Doncaster parish church, county of York:
Thomas CAWKWELL, widower, occupation painter, resides Fishergate, father Thomas CAWKWELL, mariner;
marries:
Jane ROBINSON, spinster, resides Fishergate, father William ROBINSON, joiner.
where their age should be written, both only have "of full age" written in this box- very helpful! For some reason, even though a census had only just been taken, I cant find ANY of them on the 1841 census!
even on the 1851 census, I can only find Jane- and it by no means definitely the right Jane- she is shown as Jane CAWKWELL married to a Bartholemew Steinfield, residing in Sheffield. The only reason I think this is the right Jane is because I know she had a daughter name Sarah, born 1842.
(I have Sarah's marriage birth certificate which shows her parents to be Thomas and Jane, born Gainsborough, Linc's)
PLEASE HELP!

My surname is Hands, I have traced my family line back five generations to a Samuel Hands, who was born around 1800 and was a baker. Samuel and all his descendants lived in Birmingham itself. l'm not sure exactly what your after, but if you need more details and use GenesReunited, all my Hands are listed there on my family tree.

Yes- I had the census returns for JANES- but thanks anyway!
 GREEN is going to be very difficult to say if he is the same one- I really need to find one living with a father named Thomas!

Dear Arranroots;
I've been researching my family history for about three years but I'm abviously still a novice! I don't know how I did'nt find them on the 1871 census when all the names are spelt correctly- thank you very much for your help.
I have already confirmed this will be the same family- with Eliza being a widow and Frank being only aged 1; Henry must have died in previous year- I found an entry on freebmd showing Henry GREEN died in Billesdon in Mar qtr 1871, aged 38.
Finding Henry on the 1861 census will be harder- I have an age, but he was'nt married, had no children, I know his father was Thomas, but only have Bletchley, or Hendon as possible areas of residence.

Dear Arranroots;
no- I have spent a lot of time searching through all the GREEN's on the 1851 and 1861 census for either Henry or Thomas, and cannot find any likely matches. The 'RG10' number you quoted- I take it there is a facility on Ancestry.com where I put in this ref number instead of a name?

Dear Arranroots;
I'm sorry-I knew I would forget to put some detail on! The marriage cert dated 29 Dec 1861 shows Henry aged 28 employed as a groom; and Eliza aged 26, employed as a straw plaiter; both residing in Bletchley.

I would guess that tracing my ancestors has been a lot easier for me than most- I have been fortunate that almost all had either a less common surnames, or lived in a small village/town. All that changed when I came up against the GREEN family who originated from Middlesex/Bucks! I would really appretiate some help: this is what I know:

1. My great grandmother Mary GREEN was born 1862; the first child of: Henry GREEN & Eliza JANES; her birth certificate showed they resided in Temple Fortune area of Hendon, Middlesex; and Henry was employed as a servant.
2. Not long after they moved to Billesdon, Leicestershire. However, Henry died just before the 1871 census, aged 38. The same census shows Eliza a widow, born Leighton Buzzard, Beds; living in Billesdon; with their children. Because I have'nt found Henry on a census, I do not know his place of birth.
3. Henry & Eliza's marraige certificate dated 29 Dec 1861 shows married in Bletchley, nr Milyon Keynes, Bucks; Henry's father shown as Thomas Green, employed coachman.
Henry is aged 28 and Eliza aged 26; both residing in Bletchley.

Whilst this information has enabled me to trace back the JANES family line, I am completely stuck on the GREEN line. I cannot find Henry or Thomas on the 1841/51/61 census that live together, so theres no way I can know if they are the right GREEN. Anyone any tips on where to look next!
