Yes I searched non conformists but not quakers. Do you know where I would search quakers ?

She married Henry Bullock in Aston Warwickshire. The witnesses were George Williams and Fred, unfortunately I can't make out the surname. Jane was illiterate.

Nottinghamshire / Brick wall re my GG grandmother Jane May
« on: Friday 01 May 20 16:31 BST (UK) »
I have a brick wall re my gg grandmother Jane May. I just cannot find a baptism entry for her. On her marriage certificate 1855 her age is 22 (so born abt 1833) Father Thomas May a cordwainer. I have found two families with the surname May on the 1841census both St Marys parish Nottingham and both with a Jane May aged 9 (so born abt 1832). The first (HO107 869/6) Jane has three siblings, father Thomas May cordwainer, mother Amelia. I have found baptism/birth entries for these three siblings with father as Thomas May cordwainer, mother Melicent. I assume Amelia is short for Melicent.
The second family (HO 107 869/8) has father Thomas May a labourer wife Jane . On this census there is a Jane May and her three siblings. I have found baptism/birth entries for Jane and her three siblings with father Thomas May labourer and mother Jane.
I would be grateful for any suggestions to help further my research.

Sorry I am in England. I know there was emigration of prospectors for gold and it’s just a feeling that it could be that.

Can anyone throw any light on this picture please ?
It was in a photo album belonging to my aunt. None of the pictures in the album are dated. My aunt died in 2010.
I am probably way off the mark but my thoughts are that the picture was taken overseas and could there be gold in the pouch she is holding.
Thank you
