Yorkshire (West Riding) / Thomas Moss 1799 Kirkburton
« on: Wednesday 23 November 16 04:39 GMT (UK)  »
Searching for marriage of Thomas Moss born 12/11/1799 Almondbury son of William Moss and a Maria bap. 7/12/1799 @ Lane Independant Church Holmfirth Yorkshire. I am hoping to find that he is one and the same with a convict sent to Tasmania as Charles Moss, his wife Sarah also sent same time seperate ship along with a child Levi 2 yrs. Charles or Thomas (as stated by Sarah to be his name) sentenced 4/7/1831 York (Leeds) transported on the England 7 Yrs.  I cannot progress unless I can find his mothers maiden name or Sarah's maiden name as after Charles Thomas) died Sarah married as a Pilkington, I assume to cover her convict past. Hoping to discover that Maria's or Sarah's name may have been Pilkington.  When Charles (Thomas) died in Tasmania 11/5/1845 his death cert stated that he was 45 yrs and his name was Thomas Pilkington Moss. Sarah remarried in Tasmania 1848 as Pilkington and her son Levi my 2 x G grandfather from then on was called Thomas Levi Pilkington. It is quite possible that the Thomas I have selected b. Almondbury is not the correct person but he is my best bet I believe, if his mother Maria was a Pilkington or Sarah herself was then I would be on the way to solving.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Marriage Charles and Sarah Moss
« on: Tuesday 14 October 14 04:32 BST (UK)  »
Charles and Sarah Moss both transported to Tasmania 1832 separately but supposedly husband and wife, she with a 2+ yr old son, In Tasmania they have a child registered as William James Moss born 18/2/1837 and baptised 24/8/1837.
I am hoping to find the maiden name of Sarah as I am of the opinion that when she has re-married using the name Sarah Pilkington and raising her two boys as Pilkington inc. William James that she was a pilkington (maiden)
Both were tried and sentenced York (west riding) Sarah born about 1803 as 29yrs Aug 1832 and Charles born abt 1801. I have found two possible  births for Charles 1/11/1801 Liverpool St Nicholas Lancs. and birth 13/4/1802 Dewsbury Y/Shire  bap. May 1802 Ossett Y/Shire, but I have not been able to find a marriage between a Charles Moss and Sarah Pilkington. ??? ???

Sussex Lookup Requests / Ticehurst baptism -Eastwood
« on: Sunday 13 September 09 12:13 BST (UK)  »
seeking baptism records for children of Henry Eastwood & Frances Leaney they married 1826
I have children as Sarah b.1827, Celia 1828,Harriet 1830 & Hezekiah 1835 all supposedly Ticehurst and Elizabeth 1833 at Etchingham.
I wish to find whether Celia was actually called Coele or whether she had a twin called Coele who did not survive until the 1841 census where Celia is listed as 12 years old, but no Coele.
