Hi Wonky Donky, It is the George Stanley in my tree, he's my 1st cousin 4x removed. George's father James was the brother of my 3x great grandfather John Stanley. I've got the baptism details for George's family & other bits of info if you need them. I'm so glad George had a family.

Thank you judb, it's nice to know that George may have married & had a family.  I've read the newspaper reports about George & I think if it happened now it  wouldn't even have gone to the magistrates. Thanks again

I've recently discovered that my 2x great grandmother's cousin George Stanley was transported to Tasmania in 1847 after being convicted of rape at York . George was born in Bentley, Yorkshire c 1828.  George's sister Sarah & her husband Lawrence Rockliff emigrated to Australia in 1853 & settled in New South Wales.  I would love to know what happened to them.

Thank you for your help. I'm not sure what religion Peter was, but the rest of the family were protestants. Peter & Catharine were married at Durham Register Office.

I've found my 2x gt grandfather Peter Curran's army records & his place of birth is the parish of St Bridget's, Dublin.  He enlisted 19 Aug 1858 aged 19.  Does anyone know if the baptisms are online please.
He settled in England after he was demobbed 26 Aug 1879.  On the 1881 census he is living with his widowed mother, Mary in Brandon, Durham.  Peter married Catherine Hastey & on the marriage certificate his father's name is James.
Peter disappears after the 1891 census & Catherine is with John Nicholson in 1901.
Thanks.

Hi Maidmarion,

Thanks for looking, I'm going to the archives next week & hopefully they'll have copies of the BT's.

It is Marr near Doncaster. I've got the Doncaster family history society Marr baptisms, but the earliest recorded is 1729 & the one I need is c1725.

cheers Janet
