Essex / Parish Registers Copford 1558-1967 Film 1472112
« on: Wednesday 17 July 19 15:45 BST (UK)  »
Hi All,

Is there anywhere online that the actual images of the above registers can be viewed?  They are not on FamilySearch or Ancestry UK.

I have a marriage discrepancy I am trying to sort out for a Charles Randall, born abt 1843
Fenstanton, Huntingdon.   I have a copy cert. of his first marriage to Julia Channing (b.1853 d.1886) in 1871 Madras, India but only the transcription for his second marriage to Annie Hutton in 1890, Copford Essex, where Charles shows as a widower.  The first doc. shows his father as Thomas Randall and the second shows his father as Samuel Randall.  I'm absolutely sure that I have the correct info for this family.  I have birth info for eight children from his first marriage to Julia Channing as well as two further children, Frederick and Gertrude, from his second marriage to Anna Hutton (mother's maiden name confirmed via GRO index).   I have the family on the 1881 census Charles, wife Julia and children. On the 1901 census I have Charles Randall with wife Anna, his youngest daughter Alice Maud Mary b.1884 from his first marriage to Julia and children Frederick and Gertrude from his second marriage to Anna.  So far everything corresponds - names/dates/places of birth/occupation (military) etc. - except for the fathers names that differ.  Obviously I cannot assume that Samuel is a transcription error.   Charles' birth registration in St Ives shows his mother's maiden name as Webb but as yet I have not managed to find a marriage for a Thomas Randall or Samuel Randall, to anyone named Webb.
Any ideas on this mix up or where I might find an image of the second marriage, will be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

« on: Friday 05 July 19 19:25 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,

I have a birth reg. for Sidney Arthur Buxton - 1922 Guildford, Surrey, Vol. 2A - Pg 144 - Line 137, mother's maiden name Randall.   I am trying to establish if he is the child of the following as this is the only likely option I can find.
Marriages Dec 1915
Buxton    Charles    Randall    Chelsea    1a   1237    
Randall    Florence    Buxton    Chelsea    1a   1237   

Any advice on where I can go from here as I've drawn a blank on all my searches and it appears that Guildford baptism for this period are not yet online.

Many thanks.

Scotland / Malcolm Steuart
« on: Monday 23 April 18 15:54 BST (UK)  »
Hi to all,

I am researching the Stewart family and in particular I am attempting to find the parents of Malcolm Stewart/Steuart d.1795 (aged 50yrs) Cannongate, Edin. Scot.  Malcom (occ. tailor) married Jean Broun/Brown in 1773 and they had twelve children.   I have all necessary information of his descendants but despite searching myself silly I cannot confirm his parents.   I find a Malcolm born 1745 Logierait, to John Steuart and Ann McLagan and they are a strong possibility.  I have checked this baptism record on ScotlandsPeople but other than parents names and date, there is no further information that might lead to something more, likewise on his and Jean's marriage certificate.  Can anyone possibly advise where I can go from here?  Many thanks.

Please may I request a look-up of this marriage, on the off chance that their parents names might be listed, or I might get some clue from the names of the witnesses.  I have an inkling that James might be the son of William Quick and Rebecca Bond but I need to confirm this.  Any information would be helpful.   Many thanks.
