Northumberland / Northumberland Quarter Sessions 1816 George Weedy
« on: Sunday 12 January 14 17:43 GMT (UK)  »
Can anyone tell me where the Northumberland Quarter Sessions  Summer Assizes were held in 1816. Alnwick?
George Weedy was convicted of larceny and sentenced to 2 years imprisonment.  Which jail would he have been sent to.  If he died in jail are there any records for his death?  I am trying to sort out if he is one of two George Weedy's born around the same time or just 1 person whom I am muddling up with a different Weedy family.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

Northumberland / Marriage for Thomas Russell around 1820
« on: Saturday 02 August 08 06:08 BST (UK)  »
I am searching for the marriage of Thomas Russell to an Eleanor?? around about 1818/1820 in the Berwick/Tweedmouth/NOrham area.
On the census returns their first child Isabella is born around 1820.  Have looked at Norham and Tweedmouth Bishop Transcripts with no luck - that I can see.   Eleanor says she is born at Horncliff, and they are both buried at Norham in family plot.
Possibly Presbyterian and maybe cross-border?  Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi Ruth

Could you please look up in your resources for the marriage of William Lenton and Sarah Roberts.  They married Jan/March 1885.  Her father was John Roberts.

I cannot find any trace of William Lenton with her on any subsequent census - is he a sailor?  All details would be most welcome.
Thanks

Northamptonshire / BAINS Family - Glinton- Baptisms/Marriage
« on: Tuesday 10 April 07 20:59 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for the BAINS family in Glinton. 

George Bains born c1794 married Elizabeth?? (born c1799) - can someone look up this marriage with witnesses.

Then they have a family but I do not know any names.
They have grandsons George (born c1835); William (born 1838) and Charles born 1840. (I have found these children living with their grandparents on the 1851 census - on the 1841 they are listed as is a Mary aged 20 who could possibly be the daughter of George & Elizabeth or their daughter in law.)

I would be pleased to know who their parents were.

William BAins marries Mary (I think it's Howard) July-Sept 1858 would like a lookup of this marriage with father's details and also the witnesses.

Any help with this would be gratefully appreciated.

Hampshire & IOW Completed Lookup Requests / 1851 Look-up Strawn
« on: Wednesday 13 December 06 20:31 GMT (UK)  »
Looking for any Joseph Strawn somewhere in Hampshire/IOW on this census.  Joseph the younger is born around 1828 and I think his mother is Mary (from 1841 census).  His father also Joseph (from Marriage cert) but can't find any of this family from online sources.

Hampshire & Isle of Wight / Strawn marriages puzzle
« on: Tuesday 12 December 06 16:40 GMT (UK)  »
I am researching the Strawn family on the Isle of Wight and the marriage certificates of both William Henry Strawn (wife Harriet Richardson) and his father Joseph Strawn (wife Jane Simmonds) omit the name of the wife's father.

William Henry married at St Mary's, West Cowes - 2 June 1878
Joseph married at Parish Church Carsibroke - 2 Sept 1855.

Would appreciate any help in checking these names - think I know from Census returns but would like definite information, also why would they omit their father's names?

Northumberland Lookup Requests / Marriage Lookup - Hildreth, Philip
« on: Sunday 09 April 06 12:11 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to trace the marriage of Philip Hildreth about 1840 - 1846.  Have searched the BMD Indexes so I think this must be an Irregular Border Marriage as he lived in Tweedmouth.  Hoping his wife is Isabella RUSSEL (but it may be RAMSAY).

Many thanks
Marion
