I would love a copy! Would you mesage me a image of it? Thank you!

Today I bought a book of Psalms set to music which has a hand written page by Lewis Woodcock, who it says "played the bassoon in Caldecott church for " a great number of  years". Researching the book which dates from around 1750, I came across this page and thought it could be of interest...

London and Middlesex / Help Finding a London Freedom of City Admission Paper
« on: Sunday 02 February 14 16:02 GMT (UK)  »
Apparently, according to his two son's admission papers in the London Freedom of City Admission papers collection on Ancestry, my grandfather George Cremer was made a freeman on 15 Dec 1779 (in book L).  He belonged to the company of Fishmongers.

However when I did a search for George I found nothing.  I tried to look manually--lots of the transcriptions aren't transcribed very well and the papers themselves are out of order. So no luck yet. 

I was wondering if any of you could help me find the record?  I'd like to know for sure who George's father is and his occupation.

I did find a record on British Origins London Apprenticeship abstracts that has a George Creamer apprenticing to James Cripps of the Fishmongers on 27 Nov 1772 which I guess would make sense if he was admitted 7 years later. 

Thanks for your help!  Laverdiere

Derbyshire Lookup Requests / Re: Nathaniel Pembroke of Bakewell
« on: Thursday 09 August 12 15:28 BST (UK)  »
He married Mary Prichards in Chelsea St Luke London in 1782.  I've attached the image.  Maybe he was working  in Bakewell but actually from London?  It says they had a license so I wonder if I find that if it would give me more info?

If this is the Nathaniel and Mary I'm looking for they moved soon after marriage to Deal in Kent.

Thanks for your help.  Laverdiere

Derbyshire / Nathaniel Pembroke of Bakewell
« on: Thursday 09 August 12 14:02 BST (UK)  »
I have a maybe ancestor named Nathaniel Pembroke who married in London in 1782 and said he was from Bakewell, Derby.  Can someone look him up for me?  I've looked but no luck so far in Bakewell.

Thanks, Laverdiere
