Australia / Henry Holroyd b1830

« on: Wednesday 29 April 20 00:16 BST (UK) »

Hello
I am not familiar with Australian records etc. But am looking into my relative Henry Holroyd born 1830 in Huddersfield, Yorkshire in England.
He was convicted of stealing Thomas Stocks watch in 1850 and sentenced to 7yrs and sent to Van Diemans Land.Arriving in 1853.
I have a record off Ancestry showing he was pardoned in 1855.
It appears he didn't come back as I can't find any records of him.The last date on the pardon record is 31 March 1858.
Can anybody with more knowledge of this subject find a record of him in Australia.
Thanks Lee
Stay Safe Everyone.

Hello
Could anyone look up the names and occupations of bride and grooms fathers please.
William Henry Priestley married Lucy Ann Greenwood 4 July 1872 at Todmorden according to familysearch.

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Marriage Leeds 1848.

« on: Thursday 26 September 19 18:07 BST (UK) »

Hello
Could anyone who has Ancestry check out a marriage please. Free bmd gives 1848 Leeds.
I can't find it on familysearch but looks as though it's on Ancestry.
Groom is George Turner b1823 and bride is Sarah Major. Says St Peters on hint.
If it's the right couple Sarah's dad would be Robinson Major.

It's the grooms fathers name I'm after as George was born Hemel Hempstead and would make easier to locate on 1841.
Thank Lee

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Address look up please.

« on: Thursday 19 September 19 12:28 BST (UK) »

Could anyone who has access to images confirm who lived at 71 Bolton rd Pendleton.
Got an unknown soldier who died 1916 and that's his address.
I am hoping I am correct that it is one of my Hopley relations,
Head of house could be James Matthew b 1859 or His son Charles.
thanks Lee
