Completed Leicestershire Lookup Requests / 1851 census lookup for Joseph Garratt
« on: Wednesday 27 April 05 14:50 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Joseph Garratt was born 1805-1808 at Chipping Warden, NTH. A daughter, Elizabeth, was born at Littlethorpe in 1847, and I suspect the family were still there in 1851. An index entry or transcription would be much appreciated.

Cumberland Lookup Requests / 1851 lookup for Joseph Rickerby
« on: Wednesday 27 April 05 13:26 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

This is a real long shot :)

I would like to find my gg grandfather, Joseph Rickerby, on the 1851 census. He was born in 1838 at Old Wall. However, on later censuses his birthplace varies somewhat: Thurstonfield(1871),  Ould Wald(1881), Arlecdon(1891), and Burgh(1901). He was the illegitimate son of Isabella Rickerby and Joseph Lamonby. His birth was registered under the name Joseph Lamonby, but he was baptised at Brampton as Joseph Rickerby. Joseph Rickerby was the name he used throughout his life.

It is likely that Isabella married sometime between 1838 and 1851 and Joseph is recorded under a, as yet, unknown surname. A John Corry features somewhere.

I did say it was a long shot.

Paul
