Kent Lookup Requests / Sellindge Kent burial
« on: Saturday 04 February 17 09:28 GMT (UK)  »
Is there any kind soul who can look at a burial in the Sellindge Parish Registers?

There is a record on familysearch for the burial on 16 February 1699 of Matthew, husband of Elizabeth Newman.  I would dearly love to know what the original entry actually says.

Northumberland Lookup Requests / All Saints Newcastle upon Tyne lookup - HENZIL/HENZELL
« on: Sunday 17 January 16 04:38 GMT (UK)  »
Is there anyone with access to the parish registers for All Saints who could check a burial for me?

According to the National Burial Index Joseph Henzil was buried at All Saints on 19 Nov 1728.

This date fits with his will (Joseph Henzell of the Bill House signed his will on 12 April 1727 & it was proved on 18 November 1730).  However, other evidence suggest he was still alive in 1729.  In that year he (or a completely different Joseph Henzell of Bill House) was a partner in the deed establishing the Newcastle Company of Broad and Crown Glass Owners.

Could some kind soul check the Burial Register and confirm whether the burial happened in 1728 or 1729?

Thank you

Shropshire / THOMPSON of Market Drayton

Is there anyone researching this family?  I am, I think, descended from Richard Thomspon who was born at Market Drayton in about 1617.

Shropshire Lookup Requests / THOMPSON of Market Drayton

Does anyone have access to the Registers of Market Drayton?  I am looking for the baptism of Richard, son of Lawrence Thompson, born at Market Drayton in about 1617.

Kent Lookup Requests / WRATTEN of Otham
« on: Saturday 30 March 13 04:06 GMT (UK)  »
Is there anyone with access to the Parish Records for Otham?  Samuel Wratten married Mary Hatch there on 29 August 1779.  I suspect he was a widower but cannot get at the entry to check it.  On 10 Dec 1787 Mary Ann, daughter of Samuel and Elizabeth Wratten was baptised at the same place.  While the mother's name may be wrong she could be a daughter of Samuel's possible first wife, Elizabeth Monk, who is last mentioned in 1773.

I would be grateful for any help with this family.

Does anyone have easy access to the registers of Sandhurst? I am trying to find details of the family of Samuel & Ann Newman who had children born there between 1816 and 1836.

I would be grateful for any help.

« on: Sunday 04 March 12 03:01 GMT (UK)  »
Is there anyone who can check an entry for me in the Burials for Ticehurst.   I have been informed that Mercy Balcomb, aged 45, was buried there in 1832.  Could some kind soul check the register for confirmation of this.

Gloucestershire Lookup Requests / MARRIAGE ALLEGATIONS
« on: Friday 28 October 11 04:41 BST (UK)  »
I have just had a blinding realization that two weddings I have been looking at were by license.  They were

John Fluck and Ann Keake, Hartpury 13 Dec 1773; and

John Fluck and Mary Roberts, Westbury on Severn, 15 Aug 1799.

I hate to ask, but is there some kind person who would have a look at the Marriage Allegations for these and see if there is any more information?

Gloucestershire Lookup Requests / MARRIAGE AT WESTBURY ON SEVERN
« on: Friday 21 October 11 11:28 BST (UK)  »
Is there some kind soul who could check a marriage at Westbury on Severn from 15 Aug 1799.  The transcript I have been given reads "John Fluck of Haworths [?] in County of Worcester & Mary Roberts of Westbury by License.  I would dearly love to know what "Haworths" actually is.  I suspect is may be Staunton.
