Family History Beginners Board / FamilySearch.org Help
« on: Wednesday 04 May 11 21:32 BST (UK)  »
I've found an 1826 marriage on FamilySearch.org that I'm interested in (John STOCKDEN to Louisa WALL Oct 1826). Is there any way that I can find the name of the church/chapel where the marriage took place from the information given on the FamilySearch.org site or do I need to order the film to view at an LDS centre? The site only states that the marriage took place in Bristol but I would like to order a copy of the parish register entry from the Bristol Record Office and they will need to know the name of the church.

Many thanks for any information anyone can provide.

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Can anyone help with these occupations? COMPLETED
« on: Friday 16 April 10 17:27 BST (UK)  »
Hi all,

Can anyone tell me what the first two occupations on this extract are? I'm pretty sure they're something to do with the pottery industry and I've guessed the first one as Earthenware Fireman (not that I know what that is!) but I'd like it if someone could confirm that. The second one I think is Sanitary something. There is also something written above that entry that I can't decipher.

If you want to look at the full document it is the 1901 census for William Eames at Wilmot Road, Church Gresley, Derbyshire.

May thanks for any help, H.

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / COMPLETED: 1881 Census Lookup - Garland
« on: Friday 09 May 08 16:21 BST (UK)  »
William Garland born abt 1841 Bristol Glouc. - Boiler Maker
Esther Garland born abt 1847 Warwickshire - His Wife

I can find them both (my g.g. grand-parents) with various, different children on the;
1871 Census: RG10/587 35 16  - Poplar, Middlesex
1891 Census: RG12/507 57 42  - St Nicholas, Deptford

but I can't find them at all on the 1881 census. I'm assuming that the children on the 1871 census have grown and flown the nest by the 1891 census, but I'd like to find them on the 1881 census along with their younger siblings just to tie the two together.

I'm a bit new to all this so am probably missing a trick that more experienced hands would find a breeze, so if anyone can help me with my first post I'd be very grateful.

Many thanks, H.
