Yorkshire (West Riding) / George Armitage and Kezia Richards
« on: Sunday 02 December 18 10:47 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,
I've hit a bit of a dead-end with George and Kezia Armitage. Working backwards:
1861:
George Armatage Head Married Male 54 1807 Mason Yorkshire, England
... [Kezia] Armatage Wife Married Female 54 1807 - -
George Armatage Son Unmarried Male 22 1839 Moulder Rotherham, Yorkshire,
Jemima Armatage Daughter Unmarried Female 20 1841 - Barnsley, Yorkshire,
Samuel Armatage Son Unmarried Male 18 1843 Mason Rotherham, Yorkshire,
Benjamin Armatage Son Unmarried Male 16 1845 Moulder Rotherham, Yorkshire
'Kezia' is clearly a tricky name to transcribe. It's also tricky (for me at least) to read where George and Kezia where born. I've attached an image of this section of document - maybe you can read it?!
1851:
George Arimatige Head Married Male 45 1806 Mason Hall Green, Yorkshire
Kezia Arimatige Wife Married Female 44 1807 - Nottingham
John Arimatige Son Unmarried Male 16 1835 - Rotherham, Yorkshire
Ann Arimatige Daughter - Female 15 1836 - Rotherham, Yorkshire,
William Arimatige Son - Male 13 1838 - Rotherham, Yorkshire,
George Arimatige Son - Male 12 1839 - Rotherham, Yorkshire,
Jemima Arimatige Daughter - Female 10 1841 - Rotherham, Yorkshire,
Samuel Arimatige Son - Male 8 1843 - Rotherham, Yorkshire,
Benjamin Arimatige Son - Male 5 1846 Scholar Rotherham, Yorkshire
Arthur Arimatige Son - Male 2 1849 - Rotherham, Yorkshire
In 1841:
George Armitage Male 30 1811 Yorkshire, England
Cassia Armitage Female 30 1811 -
John Armitage Male 6 1835 -
Ann Armitage Female 5 1836 Yorkshire, England
William Armitage Male 4 1837 Yorkshire, England
George Armitage Male 3 1838 Yorkshire, England
Jemima Armitage Female 1 1840 Yorkshire, England
I have found a marriage record from Nottinghamshire in 1830:
First name(s) George
Last name Armitage
Name note -
Marriage year 1830
Marriage date 26 Jul 1830
Marriage place Radford
Spouse's first name(s) Kezia
Spouse's last name Richards
County Nottinghamshire
Which is the only marriage I ca find between a George Armitage and a 'Kezia'. I've played around with other spellings of 'Kezia' but haven't found anything else.
I cannot find a plausible Kezia Richards in the parish records anywhere, and I am struggling to narrow down the number of George Armitage possibilities (understanding his birth place would help!).
Anything you can suggest would be much appreciated
