Fife / Birth and Death of Barbara Miller
« on: Thursday 16 July 09 19:35 BST (UK)  »
Hi me again

I was also hoping somebody out their with access to parish records may be able to find first, the birth of my Barbara Miller, I know she married George Herd and he as born in 1702 in Leslie, Fife. And that she had her first child in 1728 also in Leslie. I know this does not mean she was also born in that village and may well have been born in a village near by.

I appreciate this is fairly vague and I am clutching at straws but if anyone can help it would be well appreciated.

Then there is also the matter of her death, as her last child was born in 1736 in Leslie, and then no more of her by then Barbara Herd. I do have a record of George Herd marrying a Janet Dalrumple in 1737 in Leslie and then having 4 children with her.

We have checked deaths in Leslie between 1736 and 1737 but none for her. Was wondering if there was any record around of her burial in this time period anywhere else

Fife / Marriage of George Herd and Barbara Miller
« on: Thursday 16 July 09 19:29 BST (UK)  »
Hi people

I need help finding the marriage of George Herd (b1702 Leslie,Fife) and Barbara Miller their first child was born 1728 so I would imagine the marriage would be around 1727.

It may also have been in a neighbouring village as I do not know where Barbara Miller was born.

kind regards

Fife / William Herd 1760
« on: Tuesday 14 July 09 12:56 BST (UK)  »
Hi Ian here

Was hoping someone if some had access to the following parish records

I am after the parents of William Herd born 28 July 1760 in Kinglassie, Auchterderran Fifeshire

I have an inkling his father was also a William but from another source I have heard the name George mentioned.

If someone does have access to these parish records it would be so greatly appreciated and break down the next wall

Kindest regards

Kent Lookup Requests / Local help required
« on: Tuesday 25 July 06 13:27 BST (UK)  »
Hi there I am trying to find the parental details of David Trice born Sep Q Sheppy v5 p273 from free BMD.

Wondered if anyone out there would be kind enough to go to the local RO covering this area to check for the birth in the parish records.

Wanted to confirm if this is the same as my David Trice I have a marriage cert showing his father as William Trice and he is a Customs Officer.

If I can confirm this is one and the same David's birth I will be well happy.

Thanking anyone in advance for their kind help.

Kindest regards  Ian

Fife / My 5th great grandparents
« on: Monday 03 July 06 19:43 BST (UK)  »
Wondered if anyone out there can help me.

My 4th great grandfather William Herd was born 28 July 1760 in Kinglassie, Auchterderran, Fifeshire.

From IGI  I had is father as also William Herd. And no details for a mother.

A friend of mine checked Scotlandspeople for me for possible marriages in Fifeshire for William Snr and came up with the following information. Which looks very promising.

William Herd and Janet Hutcheon married 19.2.1757 Markinch, Fifeshire

Like I say this looks well promising as to the identity of my 5th greats.

I would love to find both of their births and whether they had any other children as I have managed to find none of this on IGI. So if anyone can lend a hand it would be very much appreciated.

Kindest regards

Ian

Devon / Ann(i)e Simmons Lock(e) c1853
« on: Tuesday 28 March 06 22:38 BST (UK)  »
Hello

Wondered if anyone can nail the birth and parents of my 3rd great grandmother.

When she married in 1870 Totnes District to Samuel Daw of Wellington, Somerset she would have be 16 or 17 as on a later census she is quoted as c1853. On the marriage she is listed as Annie Simmons Lock. They had their first child William George in 1870 as well and he was born in Cornworthy, Devon.

I have found the following possible birth

Anne Lock Dec Q Totnes District 5b 167 but am not 100% sure.

Just wondered if their was anyone living near the RO for Devon in Exeter, who would be kind enough to check Samuel and Annie's wedding details to find Anne or Annie's fathers name.

And then to cross reference it with Anne Lock's birth to see if they are one and the same.

Shotgun wedding's who needs them lol when trying to find those old rellies.

At least they stayed together and had a further 8 children, the next being my great grandad Samuel Richard Dawe.

Thanx in advance to any kind soul who can help me crack this.

Kind regards

Ian Dawe

Devon / Looking for the Marriage of my 3rd G Grandad
« on: Tuesday 28 March 06 22:16 BST (UK)  »
My second great grandfather John Lethbridge was born in 1831 in Mariansleigh in Devon and had 6 younger siblings that I have managed to find.

I know his parents were called William Lethbridge born (1797 India) and Mary (1804 Taunton), this I got from 1851 Census.

Trying to find Mary's maiden name more than anything. Perhaps there is someone out there who might even be also related to this family you never know.

Anyways, thanx in advance to anyone that can help

Kind regards Ian (AKA Snoop, Lucky Leo and Devon Stud) lol

Somerset Lookup Requests / Harriet Daw b 1815
« on: Sunday 25 September 05 17:35 BST (UK)  »
Hi I have the marriage of my 1st coz 5 times removed Harriet Daw. Born 1815 in Wellington as

to James Slocombe 26/10/1835

But on the 1861 census I cant find them. I can find Benjamin Stone (Taunton) 1817
Harriet (Wellington) 1813
and 6 kids I have followed 2 of the sons and the names they use for their children include Harriets parents George (My 4* G Grandfather) and his wife Mary Ann plus some of the names used also include Harriets 13 siblings names.


So what I need to find is the marriage of Benjamin Stone to Harriet to check her surname.

First child born 1842.


Kind regards Snoops
