I would appreciate a look up please for the baptism of John Lambert Horsley on 2/9/1779 at St John's Church, Colwick. This has appeared on someone's tree online and I need to verify it please. Parents are John and Mary. Thank you! Ceejay 😊

Kent Lookup Requests / Thomas Holmden
« on: Wednesday 08 January 20 02:06 GMT (UK)  »
Have found a christening for a Thomas Holmden in 1792 at All Saints, Maidstone. His parents are noted as being Thomas and Elizabeth. This may tie in with Holmden births 1798, 1800 and 1803 to an Elizabeth Holmden in Seal - Charles, John and Susan Ellis but only Elizabeth is noted. Can anyone find a marriage for Thomas Holmden to Elizabeth and if any more baptisms between 1792 and 1798 please. The records online are sketchy!

Staffordshire Lookup Requests / ASTIN FAMILY, BURSLEM
« on: Sunday 24 August 14 23:18 BST (UK)  »
Trying to find information on Joshua Astin b. 19 Jul 1834 d. 18 Dec 1902
and his wife Susannah b. 25 Nov 1832.
They married at St Pauls Church, Dalehall, Burslem on 2 Sep 1858.
Their daughter Sarah Jane Astin was born on 6 Aug 1859 and was christened at the Bethel Chapel.
She married a Percival Hamstall who died on 13 May 1902 and she herself died on 11 Nov 1901.
I have looked at online records and have not been able to find anything.  I am looking for descendants of this family.  Any help would be appreciated.   ???

Stirlingshire / birth and death in stirling look up please
« on: Sunday 13 April 08 12:13 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for the birth of Bethea Horsley in abt 1847 in Stirling.  She appears in the 1851 census in Stirling age 4, but not 1861 when the family moved to Cumberland and no mention is made of her thereafter.  I am assuming that she has died between 1847 and 1861.

I would appreciate any help in finding the birth and death in order to obtain certificates.

Many thanks,

Ceejay  ???

Northumberland Lookup Requests / Morpeth Gaol Records
« on: Tuesday 01 January 08 22:47 GMT (UK)  »
I am researching the Horsley family of Penrith and have their details from the 1861 census onwards.  Richard was born in the early 1820s in Penrith and had returned there by 1861.  I was unable to find him in the 1841 and 1851 census but suddenly found him in Stirling in 1851 age 30 with a 20 year old wife!   His occupation was a sawyer.  I am mystified as to why he was in Scotland unless it was a runaway marriage!   The only Richard Horsley that made any sense on the 1841 census was in Morpeth Gaol and it states that he was born outside Northumberland.

I am interested in finding out if this is my gt grandfather and what he is doing there etc.  Can anyone point me in the right direction please for more information?!  I live miles from Northumberland and so it is not easy for me to view any records directly.  Any help would be appreciated!
