Midlothian / Re: Sarah Falconer / John Taylor M.A. rector Musselburgh Grammar School
« on: Sunday 07 October 18 17:30 BST (UK)  »
This post is a few months old but hopefully someone will notice my post.

John and Sarah's son (William) Graham Taylor is buried at Carisbrooke Cemetery on the Isle of Wight. His regiment was at Parkhurst Barracks when he died following a riding accident. The Friends of Newport and Carisbrooke Cemeteries (www.foncc.org.uk) have two related projects. One being to tidy the cemetery and record the headstones. The second to create a database giving details of the people buried there including newspaper reports about inquests and funerals along with some basic biographical information. I am currently doing the research for Graham Taylor. There is so much information about him and his family I am going to have to do some serious editing! I already have details of his parents' marriage. Please could someone tell me where the details posted by tidyboooks comes from? You have confirmed my suspicions that John and Sarah were some how related. Thank you

I have Kelly ancestors who moved between the Isle of Man and Liverpool. They are a nightmare to connect. Where did you find the workhouse record?

If you go to Familysearch and enter the marriage details one of the records that comes up show the page from the parish register.

Have you tried looking in one of the newspaper archives? This may give details of an epidemic or  extreme weather conditions. It might also be worth checking others years for Stanhoe to see how 1801 compared with these.

British record. I have just checked and the column heading is rating. Looks like an establishment book. Long list of men's names and their details. Date they joined, ship they were appointed to, length of service they enlisted for. Am I allowed to copy it here or will that infringe the copyright? Thank you.
