Derbyshire Lookup Requests / Re: 1807 Marriage by Licence at Bradley
« on: Saturday 20 May 23 16:12 BST (UK)  »
Thank you for the replies.  Sarah Sims would seem to be the right person, buried within a couple of weeks of childbirth, the child survived. 
The other Sarah is indeed her mother but I didn't have the burial date, thank you for that. 
As regards the Bonds, the Ann Baddar who married Thomas Winfield must be Sarah's younger sister. 
With the BTs showing nothing of interest and the original PRs online wrecked around the relevant time, I think I'll have to abandon obtaining the actual proof, even though many public trees have the marriage, usual story of clearly copied with no references. 
Thank you for your input.

Derbyshire Lookup Requests / 1807 Marriage by Licence at Bradley
« on: Friday 19 May 23 19:28 BST (UK)  »
Evening all. 
I am hoping that someone can tell me where I can find the marriage allegedly at Bradley 19/5/1807 of Sarah BADDER and John SIM/SIMM/SIMS and the Derbyshire Licences for that time.  Anc* has the parish online but the registers are in a dreadfully damaged state in places. 
There are dozens of public trees showing the above date of this marriage, saying it was by licence but not one of them has any proof, apart from hints from Anc*.
I do like actual proof before I put anything on my tree, although I know that John did marry a Sarah who died in 1815 after childbirth. 
I've looked at the PRs of the surrounding area but found nothing.
Any help would be welcome.  Thanks.

Welcome back to the mad world of tracing ancestors. I was wondering if you lived within shouting distance of Nottingham Archives and could see the record for yourself, always a very satisfying experience.  Otherwise there are some kind people who log in on the Notts page who do visit and could maybe look it up for you and report back.

Hello
The information on the Notts FHS CDs is from PR fiches,  put onto spreadsheets, sent to the co-ordinator to be checked and eventually onto the next edition CD. 
I only know this because a number of years ago I did a lot of transcribing for the Society with the help of my own fiche reader. 
The problem arose when the record was illegible for any reason, they then had to be guessed at, or in the case of ink blots and tears in the original, omitted altogether.  So while the CDs are extremely useful they cannot be 100% relied on as regards spelling or missing entries.  I hope this helps.

I also have BARKE coupled with HARRIS in Kirkby in Ashfield, should you find any of your family that overlap with them.

Nottinghamshire Lookup Requests / Re: Baptisms in the 1600s at Bilsthorpe

Ooh, I'll just have to hope the BTs are reasonably legible.  It proves that the copied trees online are just that, one person guessed and the rest copied it.

How interesting!   Thank you very much for the information.  IF I manage to get to Nottingham Archives at all this year I can look at the whole document.  I wouldn't have found this without your input. 

Stay safe.

Surrey Lookup Requests / Re: Seeking 1954 Obituary and burial place
« on: Thursday 27 February 20 14:28 GMT (UK)  »
Thank you for your reply.  I don't know where that address fits in.  From 1929 to entering the nursing home his address on electoral rolls was 35 East Drive, Carshalton Beeches apart from a brief period during 1935 when he was in Brighton.   
I will certainly investigate Brockham, Dorking.  In the meantime if anyone can find a newspaper obit that would be fantastic.

Surrey Lookup Requests / Seeking 1954 Obituary and burial place
« on: Thursday 27 February 20 11:38 GMT (UK)  »
Good Morning Surrey.
 
I am looking for any newspaper obituaries for the Rev. Edmund Arthur Algernon READ born 1863, died 16th May 1954 at 17 Overton Road, Sutton, Surrey.  He was very well known all over the area at various churches but was mainly based around Sutton and I feel sure there should be a written obit somewhere for a vicar. I have searched the usual websites and been unable to find anything. 
I particularly would like to know where he is buried, having already checked with the churches that he was known to have been connected with, or alternatively if he was cremated.   
Thank you for looking.

NC.

Derbyshire Resources & Offers / William Hill assault and death 1800, Tibshelf
« on: Wednesday 22 January 20 17:09 GMT (UK)  »
I found this entry in the Tibshelf PRs and have copied it word for word as the Vicar recorded it.  The burial was Dec 15th 1800.
William Hill Jnr, farmer.  He was returning from Alfreton Market on the 5th just about 7 o clock in the evening, was robbed and cruelly treated by two men very near to that town and died a few days later in consequence of the severe wounds he then received.  He lost about 13 shillings cash besides his watch.

Later in the PRs, the Vicar added this ...   Lacy Powell and .....Drummond  were the men who cruelly treated William Hill, farmer, as mentioned in the list of deaths for December 1800.  They were hanged at Derby in the August for being the murderers for said crime.  They confessed after conviction.  They were Irishmen.
