Hi
Robert Laver m Hannah Fairhead 10 March 1789 at St Michael Archangel in Braintree. Hannah is from the neighbouring Parish in Bocking.
.....
I have a couple of potential requests for assistance please:
........

Finally I can't locate a birth for Hannah Fairhead in Bocking. Has anyone spotted a birth in a neighbouring parish. Also on Ancestry there are a number of family trees referring to Hannah Fairchild. I'm presuming this is a mistake.

Any assistance please would be greatly received.
Regards
Warwick

Hi again. Seeking further help please.
Further to this earlier post I am interested to understand whether it is Hannah Fairhead or Fairchild. I have not sighted the original but the transcription records Fairhead. Has anyone access please to the original and able to comment whether the transcription is correct.
Also still trying to locate Hannah's birth?
Any assistance much appreciated.

Hi. Looking for assistance please in tracking some of the children of John Bell (b1796) and Hannah Cousin (b1798).
In the 1841C the family are at Stainton, Dacre (near Penrith) with six sons William, Thomas, John, George, Matthew and Joseph.  Older daughter Mary has yet to be tracked in the 1841C but reappears in 1851C.

- There is a daughter Hannah b 8 March 1828 Nenthead CUL, Christened 25 Dec 1828 Primitive Methodist Church. She is not with the family in the 1841C when they are found at Stainton, Dacre so presume she might have died?
-  John (b 6 Jan 1826, Christened 19 Sept 1826 Redwing Congregational Church) can not be found after 1841C. Looking for him?
- George is a Grocers Apprentice in Penrith in 1851C but then disappears.
(Joseph dies in 1842, Matthew dies in 1855; the three eldest William, Mary and Thomas all marry)

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated please.
Regards
Warwick.

Hi
Thank you for your help. That looks promising.
I did find two William Woods who are painters in Lancaster in 1841C.
Both are aged 30 and live in Walton on the Hill, Everton, Liverpool, one with mother and siblings, other with father and brother.

Somehow need to determine which one it might be.

Cheers
Warwick

Thank you Milliepede
Will take a look.

Hi. Looking for help please in regard to Edward Harrison b circa 1830.
Edward married Ellen Harrison b 2Dec 1832 (eldest child of William Harrison and Anne Williams) in West Derby in 1854. On the marriage certificate Edward's father is noted as William Woods, Painter.  That suggests his mothers maiden or married surname is Harrison.

Yet to locate Edward in 1841C and 1851C. There are a few options. Most likely I thought from both census's he was related to Thomas b1796 Joiner & Mary b 1796 Harrison living Kensington Street 1851. The name of Edward's first child strengthened that case however I disproved this as the two children of this couple are both christened in St Peters is 1831 and 1833 to Thomas and Mary.

1861 England Census records Edward at 20 Mop? St Everton (St George Ecclesiastical District) with wife Ellen, and children Thomas, Hannah, E(dith?) Jane and Richard. Occupation "labourer docks".

Have had little success in also identifying William Wood. There are only two William Woods who are painters in Lancaster in 1841C if he was still alive. Both are aged 30 and live in Walton on the Hill, Everton, Liverpool, one with mother and siblings, other with father and brother.

I'm keen to find please Edward's baptism and hopefully through that identify his mother. Identifying more details of his father would be great to.
Any assistance please much appreciated.
Cheers Warwick
