Wiltshire Lookup Requests / Charles BRISTOW(E) - Bratton - c1830
« on: Tuesday 25 August 09 12:27 BST (UK) »
Hi
Working backwards from my Great Grandfather's death in Glasgow in 1919, aged 64, the records of which are very comprehensive. He was born in Bratton, Wiltshire about 1855.
My queries concern his mother and father.
His father's name was also Charles (a Farmer) who was married to Caroline Payne about 1850. I have been unable to find a marriage record.
On the 1841 census I have found a family Bristow living in Sheep Street, Whitehorse, Wiltshire, with Charles, aged 12, having been born outside the county.
I am unable to access a full record of the 1851 census which would confirm his birthplace, so would appreciate any help. Any records in 1861/71 would also be of help.
Many thanks for your time
