Wiltshire / PARSLEY (PARSLOE), Sarah, Westport area, c 1827
« on: Wednesday 26 August 20 03:42 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to get information on Sarah Parsley who had two of her children, Mary and Shadrack, baptised on the 28th Jan 1827 in the Parish of Westport. Her occupation was Lacemaker. The entry reads that the children are base born, as in illegitimate. Sarah married William Clark 30 Aug 1826. I descend through Mary's line and was always curious about her middle name being Parsloe, but have since found out that the name was Parsley.

I would like to know who their father was and am presuming that I will have to search the Petty Sessions for a possible record. Are these records available online?

Regards
Yvonne

Wiltshire / Emma Jane Read born c1844 Salisbury, Wiltshire.
« on: Sunday 18 March 18 07:51 GMT (UK)  »
Hi all, I could do with some advice from anyone familiar with researching Wiltshire records.
I am trying to trace back my Gr-great grandmother’s family and have hit the proverbial brick wall. Her name, from her marriage certificate is Emma Jane Read she married George Haskell 23 June 1874 at United Methodist Church, Salisbury, District of Alderbury in the County of Wiltshire. She was 20yrs at the time of her marriage and a spinster, rank or profession is not recorded, her residence was Fisherton Anger, father was William Read (deceased) his occupation recorded as Gardner.

In Dec 1874 Emma Jane and her husband George immigrated to New Zealand. on board the Edwin Fox and arrived in Wellington, Apr 1875. Their son was born Feb 1875 (surgeon’s records) on the voyage out. On all their children’s births, there were 11 of them, her birthplace was either recorded as Salisbury, Wiltshire or just Wiltshire. She died 1906 at the age of 52 which leads me to think that she was a lot older than the age recorded on her marriage certificate and her birth may have been  a lot closer to 1844 not the 1854 that I thought.

I have searched under all the different spellings for Read and used her second name to see what I could come up with but haven’t had much luck. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Cheers
Yvonne

Westmorland / Morgan family - Ambleside
« on: Sunday 23 January 11 02:02 GMT (UK)  »
I am looking for information/contact with anyone researching the Morgan family of Ambleside with ties to Bishops Castle, Shropshire. I'm particularly interested in Mary Morgan b.c1791 married Joseph Louis Maria Hetet/Hittet 5 Nov 1813 Bishops Castle, she died 1875 Shropshire. Her nephew John Henry Morgan of Loughrigg Brow, Ambleside, Westmoreland was an executor of her will, so she must have had a brother whose family maybe resided in Ambleside.


Any information on this family would be appreciated.

Shropshire / Morgan family of Bishops Castle

In the 1841 Census for Bishops Castle Mary Hettit was living with Catherine Morgan (age 83, Grocer), is this her mother?

Any information on this family would be appreciated.

Hi  :)

I am hoping someone has access to the Bishops Castle Parish Registers. I am looking for the baptism/christening details of any children to Joseph Louis Maria Hetet (sometimes spelt Hetit) & Mary Morgan. According to FamilySearch they were married 5 Nov 1813 Bishops Castle.

Thanks in advance

New Zealand Completed Requests / Pukekohe births - Growden/Read (& variants)/Haskell/Reynolds -help please *COMPL
« on: Sunday 06 June 10 09:55 BST (UK)  »
Hi

I posted this on the NZ listserv about 3 weeks ago with no luck so I thought I would try RootsChat.

I am hoping someone can help me with a birth which was suppose to have occurred in the Pukekohe area in 1915 for:

Doris Edna / Doris Rita
Growden/Read/Reade/Reade/Reid/Reynolds/Caddy/Kempthorne/Haskell

Unfortunately, all the surnames were the ones they were using/had used in previous times.  ???

I have checked the NZ Births microfiche using all these surnames but didn't find anything. I know she was born 1915 as she was listed in some court documents in 1916 as being 8months at the time.

Thanks in advance.
Yvonne
