If anyone is still following this, I recently discovered that Priscilla is actually Isabella's daughter - not sister!

Nottinghamshire / Re: Daykins and Fletcher - Radford 1845
« on: Wednesday 25 June 14 12:00 BST (UK) »Hi,Thanks Wendy, that would be brilliant
I can have a look at the marriage in the archives for you next time I'm there sometime over the next few weeks if you don't mind waiting and won't cost you a penny.
Wendy
I'll order the cert at some point - when I have enough spare cash! I wasn't entirely sure that the marriage was definite previously but hopefully it has been confirmed now!

Derbyshire / Re: Fletchers of Heanor and Smalley

Many thanks hanes - that Elizabeth Taylor marriage has had me going round in circles trying to see if it could match up and I was going nowhere!
Oddly the 1837 marriage doesn't show up on Ancestry - they suggest it was to either a Maria Shaw or a Sarah Simms!
I shall investigate the former Ms Kerrey further!
Edit - I see my mistake was to limit the search to Leicestershire!!!

Derbyshire / Fletchers of Heanor and Smalley
« on: Sunday 27 November 11 12:47 GMT (UK) »
After years of having a brick wall in the person of James Fletcher, born c1881 I think I have found his family from Workhouse records indicating that they came from Heanor in Derbyshire.
I have since been able to trace the family back through the censuses but have come to a halt with James' grandfather John Fletcher who appears to have been born in Heanor c1788. He marries (hopefully) a Eliza X sometime around 1838 (child Elizabeth seems to have been born in 1839).
However, they seem to have been specialists at not featuring in BDM records...
can anyone help? I think John and eliza's marriage may have been in smalley as she came from that parish...
Regards
Mike

Lovely - thanks Keziah
I have a feeling that she may have been a Hayward as well - there seems to be a lot of name confusion round those parts...
I have Keziah's in my tree spanning several generations - I think it's a lovely name! Albeit subject to some awful transcriptions!

Many thanks Pat - certainly confirms my suspicion that Howard and Hayward names got confused!!! 
I am pretty sure now that some of these are the folks that later moved into the Dennington / Brundish area...

Yes - it's an excellent site
I had hoped they would have transcripts on there but they don't seem to
I wish more villages had good dedicated sites - though more are starting to spring up
edit... aaahhh... just realised my typo
now corrected
