Devon Lookup Requests / Blackmore Dart Marriage Lookup
« on: Sunday 19 February 23 03:07 GMT (UK)  »
Hello

If possible could someone please see if there is a transcribed copy of a marriage certificate between a Richard Blackmore and Harriet Dart who married in Q4 of 1848 in the Barnstaple district. The marriage would have likely taken place around the Shirwell\Kentisbury areas.

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Place of Birth

I initialy thought the William Sillet from Whitton was the same man. However the 1851 and 1861 entries conflict with the below information.

This is what I have regarding the William Sillett's from "Witford/Warmond" family
"Spouse" - Don't believe they married
Elizabeth Glover c.1822 Market Downham, Norfolk

Children
1848 - Mary Ann Sillett - Market Downham, Norfolk
1850 - Keziah Sillett - Huntingdonshire - Died 1851
1852 - George Sillett - "Spring Garden", Lincolnshire
1854 - Keziah Sillett - East Grinstead, Sussex
1857 - William Sillet - Borden, Kent

Keziah married into the Tassell family with whom I have DNA matches. Cross referencing them with other common matches makes me believe they are descended from, or related to, William Sillett (c.1759) and Jemima Sheldrake (1760) of Stonham Aspal. Their descendants spread out in the local area including Whitton. The above William Sillett, c.1825 from Whitton, is their grandson.

The above image was taken from the 1871 for William Sillett, c.1824

The only other census I have found him in is the 1861 census, where is he is listed as William Sletty c.1822. He's place of birth for that census is listed as Witford, Suffolk which is another place I cannot seem to locate.

Can someone please confirm the place of birth in the top row of this image.

Ancestry have it transcribed as Warmond, Suffolk. However it looks more like Starmond but I cannot link it to a current day place in Suffolk.

Hertfordshire / Sarah Hewington of Hatfield
« on: Saturday 12 June 21 16:09 BST (UK)  »
Afternoon

I am trying to trace the origins of my ancestor Sarah Hewington, born c.1780. I've listed her movements below.

- 1802. Marries Benjamin Howard at Hatfield, Hertfordshire. Both listed OTP
- 1802-1811. Children born at Hatfield
- 1811-1817. Unknown
- 1817-1820. Two more children born at North Mimms
- 1841 & 1851 Census' - Residing at North Mimms. Date of birth given as 1786 in 1841 and 1790 in 1851. Place of birth is given as Pauls Walden, Bedfordshire (Hertfordshire?), same as Benjamin.
- 1855. Died and buried at North Mimms. Age given as 75

Looking for Hewington's, I have found a few listed at Hatfield but none around the time Sarah would have been born.

Can anyone help me to confirm when and where Sarah may have been born?

Dorset / Marriage of Francis Hiat & Joan Dudge
« on: Sunday 08 November 20 15:59 GMT (UK)  »
I'm trying to confirm additional details regarding the marriage of Francis Hiat (Hyatt) & Joan Dudge (Dodge?) which happened in 1763. According to transcripts on Ancestry, FindMyPast and FreeREG this marriage occured at West Buckland, Somerset on 8 May, after a bann on 3 April at the same place.

According to the transcript on Ancestry, this came from FHL film 599466. There is also an additonal transcript from this film recorded on Ancestry that says the marriage occured at Allington, Dorset. It is not clear if this entry is another bann, marriage, or a typo. Whilst Ancestry has images of the West Buckland registers, the marriage images stop at 1748 so I cannot confirm if either individual was residing at Allington leading upto the marriage.

Can anyone help to confirm if the Allington reference is correct/actually exists?

Somerset / Re: Peter Cross 1851 Census
« on: Tuesday 03 November 20 19:34 GMT (UK)  »
FreeREG is missing the last two children as the baptism transcripts only go up to 1810, Rebecca (1813) who later married Edward Waygood, and the above Mary (1815) who married James Taylor.

Thank you! Yes it is Peter with the wrong surname, age, and misspelling for place of birth. The head of the family is his daughter who I didn't know existed so there is another branch to be explored.
