Hello,

Please could someone with access to the microfiche/images of St. Lawrence, Warkworth parish records lookup the following three events for me.  I'm interested in any additional information on the records.

Baptism Elizabeth Brown 27 Dec 1818. This is transcribed as Elizabeth Brocon on FreeReg. Is this a mistranscription? I have parents names George and Ellen, abode Warkworth, George was a shepherd. FreeReg doesn't give date of birth, although I have 15 Nov 1818 from somewhere (wasn't always good at keeping sources).

Baptism William Brown (my 3xGreat Grandfather) 12 Jan 1812. This one is on FamilySearch but not FreeReg (seems to be a gap early 1811 to early 1813, no Johns, Williams, Elizabeths or Marys). FamilySearch just gives father's name George. Again, I have date of birth 17 Sep 1811 from somewhere.

Marriage of George Brown and Eleanor/Ellen Smart 19 May 1811. From FamilySearch, no additional info.

I'm trying to improve George and family's profiles on WikiTree:

Hello all,

We think we may have found my wife's 5 x Great Grandmother Sarah Funnell on the 1841 and 1851 census having remarried after the death of her first husband John Sherwood/Sharewood.

The household in 1851 in Robertsbridge contains:

John Waklin,Head,49,Ag Lab,Salehurst,Sussex
Sarah Waklin,Wife,64,Marden,Kent
John Carey,Grandson,13,Apprentice Tailor,Robertsbridge,Sussex

John Carey Sherwood (b. 1837) is the older brother of my wife's 3 x Great Grandfather (Samuel George Carey, b. 1841)). John's baptism record suggests he was born before his parents were married (if indeed they ever were).

John and Sarah Wakilin are also together on the 1841 census in Salehurst.

We can't find anything online (Ancestry and various Sussex sites), please could someone have a look for the following things for us:
* A marriage of Sarah Sherwood/Sharewood (nee Funnell) to a John Wak(i/e)lin somewhere between 1825 and 1841 in Sussex (likely Salehurst, Robertsbridge, Hastings).
* A death/burial of John Sherwood/Sharewood between 1824 and 1841 (same places).
* A marriage of John Carey and Frances Sherwood/Sharewood roughly between 1837 and 1841 (same places).

This is Sarah Funnell on our WorldConnect Tree:

Hello all,

I believe the marriage on the IGI of William Walker to Jane Foster on 10th September 1829 in Skipton in Craven is that of my 3x Great Grandparents.

Please could someone with access to the records let me have a full transcript.  I'm interested to see whether their parishes, status, ages and even parents are given.

Thanks,

James

Hello,

Benjamin Salisbury born c1855 in St Helier, Jersey was my wife's Great Great Great Grandfather.  From the 1861 census until he left home he lived with his Uncle Henry Salisbury at St Peter Port, Guernsey, so we do not know his mother's or father's name.  If anyone can look him up in the St Helier parish records, that would be great.

Also, the marriage of Benjamin Salisbury to Elizabeth Brock sometime between 1873 and 1876 in St Peter Port would be great.  He was living there in 1871 and so was she in 1881, although she was born in France.  Their first child was born in Oct 1876 in St Peter Port.

Thanks in advance,

James

Hello all,

Why do I get the message "It seems that you are not allowed to download or view attachments on this board." when viewing posts?

This includes my own posts where the attachment is an image which was originally displayed directly in the post itself.

Can anyone else see the images in that thread?
