Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Giggleswick marriage lookup please
« on: Friday 06 May 11 01:53 BST (UK)  »
 :) Hi from sunny OZ

Is it possible for anyone who has acccess to Giggleswick church records to check the following for me please.

I am looking for a marriage that took place on 29 March 1766 at St Alkelda's Church in Giggleswick between Eden Preston & Richard Pickles.

I am hoping that there is a little more information than just the the bride and grooms names - fingers crossed!

This entry seems to have missed being included in the IGI as I cannot find it online. :(

Thank you in anticipation  ;)

Cambridgeshire Lookup Requests / Whittlesey PR's for King family
« on: Friday 05 November 10 00:43 GMT (UK)  »
I am seeking help in trying to solve a mystery with two members of my King ancestry. I have checked the free index on the Cambridge Family History Society site but need some clarification which may be available in the extra information in the actual PR's.

In the baptism records are the following entries:

1819 Ann daughter of Jeremiah King & S Holmes of Thorney - baptism at St Andrews

1821 Ann daughter of Jacob King  & Sarah Holmes of Thorney - bapt. St Andrew's

1824 Eleanor daughter of Jacob King & Sarah Holmes - bapt St Andrew's

1826 Sarah daughter of Jacob King & Sarah Holmes 0f Horsegate - bapt St Andrew's

On 28 Nov 1825 Jacob King of Thorney married Sarah Holmes of Whittlesey - I am hoping that the PR's might show that the entry for the 1819 baptism entry is a miss print and the father should read Jacob and that there might be some reference as to why Jacob and Sarah didn't marry until so long after their children were born.
Jacob died in 1826 and was aged in his 60's.

Any help would be greatly appreciated as I live in Australia, which makes a visit to the records office a bit of a challenge!

Cheers

Westmorland / Re: St Laurences, Morland
« on: Sunday 06 December 09 00:32 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Jackie & Anna  :)

The Morland Parish records are on line at

www.cumberlandarchives.co.uk/ 

if this link doesn't work just use your search engine to find Cumberland Archives. The registers are baps, marriages and burials from 1538 to 1742.

On the film I have I can go from 1742 to 1901 but it will be a great help if you can give me an idea of the time frame you are looking for as it is very time consuming to go through 150 years of sometimes not very easy to read entries. I will do my best this week but the LDS centre closes from Dec 11 to the end of Jan which is summer school holidays here is OZ so you might be waiting a little while. :(

Cheers
Janet  ;)

Completed Huntingdonshire Look ups / Re: 1841 census lookup please-St Ives
« on: Tuesday 13 January 09 03:56 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Dan  :)

Having done a lot more research since I replied to Steve back in 2007 I now know that John Tinkler who married Virtue Tame was the brother of my 3x gr grandfather William Tinkler which makes John my 3xgrand uncle.

So I guess that makes us relatives!

Doing the research on the Tinklers has not been easy as I live in OZ and Huntingdonshire records are not the easiest to find.

Nice to meet you Dan!

Cheers
Janet  :)

Australia / Re: Queensland website
« on: Tuesday 02 December 08 04:44 GMT (UK)  »
Hi Lauren
I don't think that I can be of much help - the only suggestion I can make is for you to try the Maryborough Historical Society but I am not sure if they have a web site.
Also perhaps the Qld Archives - you should find both by Google or another search engine.
Good Luck - sorry I can't be of more help!
Cheers
Janet

Lancashire Lookup Offers / Re: St. Michael on Wyre 1728-1827
« on: Tuesday 11 March 08 22:55 GMT (UK)  »
 :) Hi Phil

A personal message would be great as I doubt that it would be of interest to many other people.

How interesting that the name Anthony Billington appears as a sponsor in your line as from memory - I don't have the folder to hand -  Keith [husband] has an  Anthony in his tree.

Being so far from England and Catholic records being a tad scarce on the internet the research for this line hads not been easy.

Once a gain thank you so much for your help.
cheers
Janet  :D
