Family History Beginners Board / Heaton family
« on: Thursday 14 March 24 14:21 GMT (UK)  »
I've decided to post this on here as well as the Ireland board,  because the family had been living in England for a considerable time.
Hello I'm trying to locate the parents and siblings of Ralph Heaton b 1816 in London.  He married Sarah Hawkins in 1855 and had 3 children.  His father is recorded as Patrick, a farmer.  On the parish birth register of his son, Ralph b1866, the Godfather is named as Michael Heaton.  I'd like to find out more about Ralph 's father, his mother and siblings. Thank you

Family History Beginners Board / John Rigby birthplace
« on: Friday 11 November 22 18:56 GMT (UK)  »
I'm trying to find the birthplace and parents of John Rigby (c1805-1865).  He married Hannah Law in 1824 in Barnsley, Yorkshire and Census records show his birthplace:
1841 - aged 35 born Yorkshire (with wife Hannah 35 and children Margaret 13,  Sarah 9, James 7 and John 3)
1851 John 47 born 1804 Barnsley, Yorkshire 
1861  John 59 born 1802  Scowes Lancashire
It is the 1861 place of birth that differs from the other 2 censuses and I'm not sure why.
Any help to find a record of his birthplace and his parents would be much appreciated.  Thanks

Family History Beginners Board / Frances Middleton
« on: Wednesday 26 January 22 12:26 GMT (UK)  »
Hello  I have a gap of a few years for Frances Middleton b 30th January 1897 Wolverhampton  parents:  Charles Henry Middleton and Eliza Jane Kenning.  Siblings:  William Henry, Clara and George.  They lived in Tredegar Wales and I've found all living in the Workhouse in 1908 but the children were moved to the 'Cottage Homes' in 1911.  I have Bedwellty Union records for Frances and siblings but after 1912 there is no sign of Frances  I believe she may have been in Hackney, where she had her son Charles in 1925 but that's not definite.  She died in Southend on sea in 1987.  Can anyone help to fill in the missing years?  Thank you
