I wondered if there are any Denison family connections out there, as I have Denisons in three strands of my Yorkshire ancestors.
My latest conundrum is Sarah Wright, who married William Denison in Kirkby Overblow 19/02/1833.
I don't seem to be able to find her parents, birth record, siblings if there were any... she is a mystery...

William her husband, I believe to be the son of Joseph Denison (1781-1865) and Ann Bradley (1781-1862), however I also cannot find their marriage record...
They had a big family- first child was Elisabeth born in 1801 in Kirkby Overblow.

Many thanks for any help,

Glamorganshire / Elizabeth Hind born c1811 Cardiff, Glamorganshire
« on: Sunday 23 February 20 12:52 GMT (UK)  »
Hi I'm looking for a birth record for Elizabeth Hind, who married John Banks of Cockermouth, Cumberland
Marriage 11/03/1837, Lorton, Cockermouth, Cumberland

The two censuses I can find for John and Elizabeth state that she was born in Cardiff, Glamorganshire.
John founded a successful ironmongery shop in Cockermouth, in 1836, which still survives to this day.

John Banks was not only a successful businessman but also a local personality. When the railway was coming to Cockermouth it was initially suggested that there be two stations. He argued that a central one would be better and cheaper and recommended cutting through the main street, creating Station Street and Station Hill.
He also influenced national affairs suggesting to W.E. Gladstone, at that time the MP for Oxford, that receipts should be stamped with a penny stamp (1d).
John Banks also proposed that there should be control on the ownership of guns: this eventually resulted in the introduction of the gun license.

Elizabeth and John had five children
Sarah Jane Banks born 1837 Cockermouth, christened in the Independent church
John E. Brown Banks born 1838 Cockermouth, christened in the Independent church
Elizabeth Banks born 1841 Cockermouth, christened in the Independent church
Thomas Lewis Banks born 1843 Cockermouth, christened in the Independent church
Annie Banks born 1846 Cockermouth, christened in the Independent church
Richard Edward Banks born 1850 Cockermouth, christened in the Independent church[b
][/b]

I have drawn a blank for Elizabeth. If anyone has any ideas or links to my tree, I'd be very grateful for any help.

I am trying to find a marriage record and any other information for James Farrall and Ellin Dufficy, who had a child Maria Farrall Christened on 8 May 1842.

I have searched Irish genealogy.ie with no success at all.

I have only been able to find the Christening record for Maria (Ireland Births and Baptisms, 1620-1881).

Many thanks to anyone who can help in any way.
