Scotland / Engagement
« on: Tuesday 12 March 24 20:12 GMT (UK)  »
Hello
          I found an engagement announcement in The Scotsman in January 1957 of Elspeth Wolstencroft to Colin Tinker in Edinburgh.
He married someone else in 1960, I am wondering if he had been divorced or maybe they broke up? Can I please ask if there is a listing for them?
Thank you

« on: Saturday 25 November 23 19:59 GMT (UK)  »
Hello
           Can anyone spot this couple in 1871 please?
James & Betty Collinge both 35 at Rhodes Bank Oldham in 1841
Still there 1851 both 45
In 1861 at Lord Street Oldham both 55, he was a brick layer on all.
I can't find any deaths for them, in 1870 there is a Betty but she was the wife of Adam a pawn broker  and a James on Lancs BMD in 1870 is actually Jane  I can't find them in 1871 but they might have lived on.
Thank you

The Common Room / 1841 Census
« on: Monday 30 October 23 19:44 GMT (UK)  »
Hello, can anyone spot this couple in 1841 as I draw a blank?
William Greaves b 1809 and Betty b 1815 in Oldham, he was a butcher.
In Feb 1839 they were at Maygate Lane when they baptised Sarah. in Oct 1843 at Woodstock Street Liverpool when they baptised John.
Sarah died but don't know where or when, they were in Liverpool in 1851, back in Oldham 1861. I couldn't find the in 1871 either but knew their address and someone on the street so tracked it back and they were listed as Green but it is Greaves. Thank you

Canada / Ralph Shepherd
« on: Sunday 15 October 23 22:48 BST (UK)  »
Hello. Ralph Shepherd was foreman of Liverpool Locomotive department in 1854 when he gave evidence at an accident enquiry.
 I can't find him emigrating but on 11 October 1858 he married Jane Childs at Hamilton Ontario. Is there any way of finding if his first wife Sarah went and died in Canada? There is a death in Liverpool in 1857 but the age is wrong, she might not have been dead? None of his children followed him.  Thank you

The Common Room / Baptised 3 times?
« on: Monday 02 October 23 15:57 BST (UK)  »
Hello
   Ralph and Sarah Shepherd had a daughter Ann on September 3 1833 at Clarence St Hulme Manchester, she was baptised privately the next day, by St George's Hulme
Then on March 2 1834 baptised again at Manchester Collegiate, then again at the same place on March 9 the only difference is the abode, Manchester and Hulme.
I wonder if she was actually baptised times or a clerical error? Very odd. Their youngest child Ralph was baptised at St Philips Salford in 1843 and then they just vanish
