Devon Lookup Requests / Bere Ferrers - LASKEY & COWBRIDGE c.1667
« on: Tuesday 14 May 19 03:12 BST (UK)  »
Hello kind people,

I have an ancestor from Cornwall by the name of Malachi LASKEY. Malachi was born at Moretonhampstead in Devon in 1642. His wife's name is Wilmot. Some family trees have her surname as COWBRIDGE.

I cannot find a record of the marriage in Cornwall but an online ancestry tree suggests that the marriage took place in Bere Ferrers in 1667.

I would appreciate a lookup to confirm this information.

Thanks.

Armed Forces Resources / Lookup request WO 69 - National Archives UK
« on: Friday 31 August 18 00:46 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for information about a David King who served in the Royal Artillery c. 1800.

There is no service record for him so I would be grateful if there was anyone going to the National Archives who would be able to do a look up for me.

I have the following information.

WO 69/618/4539 Royal Artillery Pensions Register 1815 - 1818
David KING. Place of birth not given Discharged 1811. Discharge reason: Pension.

WO 69/618/7414 Royal Artillery Pensions Register 1815 - 1818
David KING. Place of birth not given Enlisted 1801. Discharged 1818.
Discharge reason: Pension. Note: Dead.

I don't know if either of these entries relate to the person that I am looking for.

The David King that I am looking for was possibly born at Neilston, Renfrew in 1772 and was a weaver prior to joining up.

In 1798 he was serving in Cornwall.

Any help would be appreciated.

Renfrewshire / Family of Thomas King and Ursula (Oslea) Stewart (Stuart) - Paisley m 1760/61
« on: Friday 31 August 18 00:18 BST (UK)  »
I am after any information regarding the descendants of the above couple who had several children in Paisley and Neilston between 1760 and 1780 as there is a possibility that their son David born 1772 is my ancestor. I am looking for any information that would help me confirm this.

I know this is rather vague but I don't have a lot of information to go on. All I know is that David King was a weaver by trade and served in the Royal Artillery. In 1798 he married in Cornwall and a son Thomas was born the following year in Plymouth. There is no service record for him at the National Archives and I can't find a record of him or his wife past the birth of his son.

Any information or ideas would be appreciated.

London and Middlesex / Emma HARGRAVE born 1817 Westminster
« on: Thursday 30 March 17 21:22 BST (UK)  »
Looking for information on the above person. She was born at Westminster in 1817 and baptised at St Margaret's Westminster in 1819.

I cannot find her in the 1841 census.  In 1851 she is unmarried and living with her brother Ben (Benjamin Joseph) and mother Sarah at Little George Street in the parish of St Luke Chelsea.

Her mother Sarah dies in 1858. There are possible marriage and death records for Benjamin but I cannot find any further record of Emma.
