Yorkshire (West Riding) / Thomas Muscroft b 1891/92

« on: Wednesday 11 May 22 10:29 BST (UK) »

Hi I have a bit of a mystery. I have a Eva Holt b Thorne 1899 who married a Thomas Muscroft b 1892 in Doncaster in1919. They are together on the 1921 census living in Thorne and it says Thomas was born in Thorne. No such birth for Thorne. In the 1939 census Eva is on her own with her children in Thorne but classed as married. The only birth for a Thomas Muscroft I've found is in Ecclesall Bierlow in 1891 but he's with another wife on the 1939 census. I've looked at Military records but cannot see anything. I'm confused, is it bigamy, divorce, no deaths have come up either.
Any info much appreciated.

« on: Thursday 28 April 22 19:23 BST (UK) »

Hi trying to find any service records for a William Ernest Stevenson b 23/11/1920. He served in WW2 in the Royal Marines. Not sure of his Service number. We have a piece of paper and it has a division and register no PO/X 116686. His wife was Maisie Stevenson who was his next of kin. Any info would be good. I have looked on the usual sites but cannot find anything.

Thankyou

Northamptonshire / Joseph Broughton born Barnack c 1787

« on: Saturday 23 April 22 11:54 BST (UK) »

Hi I have a marriage between Joseph Broughton b 1787 to a Sarah Wallis in 1818 Ryhill Rutland. I know he married a Sarah, I just hope it's the right one.
In the 1841 census, Joseph is with John b 1823 Barnack.
Also there is a Harriet aged 12 b 1827. I cannot find a Harriet with parents Joseph and Sarah only a Mary as mother. There is a Mary Broughton death in 1837 Barnack but I can't find a marriage to Joseph. I also can't find a death for a Sarah Broughton. To make it more confusing Joseph's parents were Joseph and Mary. I am all mixed up so I hope someone can straighten this mess out.
Thank you.

Staffordshire / Thomas Clamp b c 1781 Sedgley

« on: Wednesday 20 April 22 19:50 BST (UK) »

Hi looking for a birth / baptism for a Thomas Clamp b c 1781 Sedgley. He married a Mary Rudge in 1804 in Sedgley. Thomas died in Dudley in 1859. Looking on some trees on Ancestry they are suggesting his father could be William but some are conflicting of his birth year. I would like to know his parents too if possible.
Thankyou for any info.

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Marriage of Richard Temperton to a Mary Jane ?

« on: Sunday 17 April 22 14:25 BST (UK) »

Hi, I'm looking for a marriage between a Richard Temperton born 1851 Belton Lincolnshire to a lady called Mary Jane ?. The marriage would have been around 1875 ? Possibly in Hook Yorkshire. They had two children Tom Edward b1876 and William Herbert b1878. Mary Jane died in 1880 aged 29 yrs in Hook. Richard was single on the 1871 census then a widower on the 1881. Richards parents were William and Hariot Temperton. Richard then remarried to a Sarah Whitehead. I've looked everywhere including the children's births. Any info welcome.

Hi trying to find a birth and marriage for a Benjamin Ward supposedly born Eastrington C 1811- 1816. On the 1841 census he is in Cawood Selby Yorks with wife Mary ? and 3 children. His birth is 1816 Yorkshire and Ag labourer.. on the 1851 it's 1812 Eastrington, labourer, 1861 he's a farmer but born 1814. He's still with Mary until 1871 census then he dies in Cawood 1874.
