Lincolnshire / Coningsby Baptist MI's ....
« on: Sunday 10 June 18 08:45 BST (UK)  »
Please could someone tell me if Coningsby Baptist MI's have been recorded in the past?

I thought id seen it mentioned in LFHS publication lists but cannot find it.
I am currently transcribing registers and graveyard plans which are still with the chapel (im a member of both chapel & LFHS) before encouraging them to deposit with Archives.

Any help with previous recording of churchyard gratefully received, especially as we have a funeral on Friday 15th and trying to clarify some blank plots as well as make a comprehensible index and plan!
Many thanks.

Cambridgeshire / PEACOCK / BROWN - Elsworth & Eltisley
« on: Monday 29 January 18 12:40 GMT (UK)  »
I have 4 pages copied from a family bible / family register with a long list of PEACOCK names from 1805 through to early 1900s from the villages of Eltisley & Elsworth . They also contain surnames of BROWN, HATTON, HALL, COSENT & PAYNE.

I was helping an old friend some years ago but who has since died, so i dont know if the bible is still in her family. As I have no personal use of the list I thought it best to make it available for anyone with connections.  If anyone would like to pass on the copies to Cambs FHS thats fine!

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: Trinity Church Dewsbury & HUGGINS

Hi,

I think I have found the Chapel :)


I found the marriage in "West Yorkshire, Non-Conformist Records, 1646-1985",

Parish or Chapel:  Dewsbury
 
Dec 25 1875
Charles HUGGINS    23    Bachelor    Teamer?   
Residence:  Dewsbury
Father:  Charles HUGGINS

Mary Elizabeth BROOKS    22    Spinster     
Residence:  Webster St. Dewsbury
Father:  Joseph BROOKS

Officiating minister:  A. A. RAMSEY


In 1881 an Adam Averell RAMSEY is living in Dewsbury , his occupation is Independent Minister Trinity Church.

Here it mentions,
PLACES OF WORSHIP, "Congregational (Trinity), Wellington road, Rev. Adam Averell Ramsey, minister; Sun. 10.30 & 6, Thur. 7.30."

http://forebears.co.uk/england/yorkshire/dewsbury

There is some info about it here,

http://www.longcauseway.org.uk/about-us/page1/

as it was "demolished in 1985 to make way for the ring road." it's lucky that there seems to be a picture here,

Just for interest, it seem that Adam Averell RAMSEY wrote some books including,

"Co-operative Congress - Dewsbury - 1888: Sermon preached in Trinity Congregational Chapel, Dewsbury, on Whit-Sunday morning, May 20th"

Hope this helps :)

Daisy

Thanks for your help! Much appreciated!

I think it originally said Date Uncertain, then Dec 25th has been written over it.

What I suspect happened is that part way through 1876 they remembered that the marriage had taken place, and put it in the register but without the exact date. Then someone remembered the date, and it was added later. Ancestry, in the absence of any other evidence to hand, transcribed it as 25 Dec 1876, which is certainly what it appears to be.

However, this cannot be correct, since the registration, which would have happened at the time of the ceremony, was in the December quarter of 1875. Incidentally, the GRO index has BROOKE rather than BROOKS, and I think that's what the register says too.

Thankyou for your replies and all the info. Much appreciated.  !

Yorkshire (West Riding) / Trinity Church Dewsbury & HUGGINS
« on: Saturday 14 October 17 20:12 BST (UK)  »
Many thanks to people who replied to another thread on HUGGINS family. 

I now have a marriage certificate at Trinity Church on Dec 25, 1875 for Charles HUGGINS & Mary Elizabeth BROOKE.
However its says married according to the rites of the Independents, not CofE. so I googled Trinity it came up with Holy Trinity, presumably an anglican church. So who was Trinity, or are they the same? And why Independents?

Will be grateful for info on the church and where it is/was !
Thankyou.

Elizabeth & Charles were both present at home in Coningsby, Lincolnshire at those times,

Brother Charles is in Dewsbury in 1881 name under Huggin age 28
Married to Mary with 2 little boys Arthur and Herbert both born Dewsbury

Add is Harwood St but a few pages forward on census is Back Webster St.  Then Vulcan Rd with Elephant and Castle public house then onto Webster St.  Have you got a house number by any chance?
.......................................
Thanks for census info...
I dont have a house number for 1881.  Strangely there is a Charles also in Lincolnshire census, which i thought was him, stated as born Coningsby, age 26, unmarried.  Yet the Dewsbury Charles certainly looks like the Dewsbury one is the right Charles, being born Boston.  I have now ordered the marriage certificate to check fathers name. 

The address in 1901 175 Huddersfield Road shows on the map as two parts, but am not sure where 175 is?

Also i cannot find the family on 1891 census...can anyone help?  name seems to be either HUGGINS or HUGGIN.
Thanks for everyones help!

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / HUGGINS burial 1878 Dewsbury
« on: Tuesday 03 October 17 20:31 BST (UK)  »
Please can anyone help find the burial of Elizabeth Eliza HUGGINS, died Dewsbury 5 January 1878 age 23 at Webster Street, with her brother Charles present. Their father was also Charles.

Also any 1871 or 1881 census for the street if any other HUGGINS family there.
Elizabeth & Charles were both present at home in Coningsby, Lincolnshire at those times, but we have no clue why she was in Dewsbury, though she had had two illegitemate daughters in 1872 and '74, so possibly sent away.
I gather that Webster St was in a slum area.
any background info on Dewsbury and area appreciated. 
Thanks!
Richard
