I'm looking for the death of Reuben Smith.
His wife Annie Louise died in 1924 (at the asylum in Burley in Wharfedale) - at this time Reuben lived in the Meanwood/Harehills area of Leeds.
He was born c. 1863. I can't see any relevant death entries - there is one registration entry in Leeds North in 1936 but the age in the index would be too young.  A family story says that he drowned  as he was in debt (possibly in Roundhay Park Lake).
Is the Yorkshire post (or other local Paper) searchable anywhere for the period after 1925 ? I'm in Leeds early next week so will look in the library.

Many thanks,
Jeremy

I have an entry from the 1851 census for Edward Evans.
He would be born approx 1798 but I can't identify the exact birthplace from the 1851 census entry (in Habberley, Shropshire) I have attached the birthplace entry image below. I would be grateful if anyone could suggest where this is.
The nearest I could match is Montgomeryshire LLangyniew. (though the ending looks like "ion" in the census image)
According to a marriage certificate for his 2nd marriage in 1865  (at the age of 67) his father was Evan Evans, Flannel Weaver
Incidentally I could not find Edward on the 1861 census and the 1871 entry not very helpfully says he was born in "Wales" so this is the only cenus I have showing a birthplace.

Many thanks,
Jeremy

I'm still looking for Lucy Burgoine's baptism (c. 1779) or details of her parents if anyone has any suggestions?

many thanks,
Jeremy

I am trying to find the baptism of Lucy Burgoine.

She married Daniel EATON on 2 Jan 1797 in Darley Dale.

At the time of her marriage in Darley to Daniel Eaton in 1797, she was from Bonsall, and from the age given at her death/MI, she should be born c. 1779 ish.   I have checked the Bonsall and Darley Dale PRs and a few others in the surronding area.

many thanks,

Jeremy

I have Anthony Eaton on my tree.

THe detials I have is that Anthony Eaton married Jane BOTT in Winster in 1690.

The date in Feb 1691 is unclear as to the year as it is pre 1752 so using the old calendar when the year changed on 25 March.

ANthony Eaton was baptised in Bonsall on 4 November 1660, the son of Thomas and Joan Eaton.
The Bonsall PRs for this period are hard to read and have some gaps in them so I haven't found a marriage for THomas and Joan as yet.
It is fortunate that Lichfield Record office hold marriage bonds and wills many of the Eatons in this family line which help to provide additional clues.

I did find on checking the entries that thtere are some errors in the INce Pedigree for the Eaton family, one section being transcribed by Ince under the wrong person but a few wills and cross checking with PRs showed the correct lineage.

your comment regarding the will:

Anthony EATON left land adjoining land belonging to George NEEDHAM and Anthony GREENSMITH;   
this tells us that the land given to Anthony Eaton by his father lies adjacent to other land which is owned by George needham.
