There was an Ann Earl baptised between 1782 and 1812 at St Mary Magdelene Bermondsey.
see here http://www.parishregister.com/searchpage.asp
It is a very small amount to get a copy of the transcription on-line.  If you ask for all Earls you will also get William.  Just enter the surname.

Of course it may not be yours

The entries on the IGI are put on by members of the church and are not taken from the registers.  They may not be true and are probably deduced from census records

Thank you very much.  That might solve a puzzle especially with the Holgates.  There are lots of them.

Thank you again

Sorry for the delay my computer has been down.

This family is very messy.  The trees will not look right. Also I cannot be sure that those fathers are really the fathers.  Will have to find some parish registers.

Can I be very cheeky and ask if you can find George Illingworth, John and Sarah Holgate and Gabriel Carter in the 1851 census.  I was told George was in Chatburn but that is all I have.  I really need the parents places of birth as there are a few on the IGI who could qualify.

Thank you for your help

Did a search and found this map for Surrey Buildings http://www.ph.ucla.edu/epi/Snow/1859map/surrey_buildings_1849_a4.html

Gainsford Street is still there if you look at Streetmap

Hope it helps

Does that look as if George Illingworth is down as George Proctor on the census and Ann Lawson is down as Ann Carter. ??

Wonder why they didn't use those names on the marriage cert.  Their daughter Selina married a Proctor and their grandson is called George Illingworth Proctor.  What a mix up.

Thank you

Lancashire Lookup Requests / 1841 census Holgate and Lawson in Lancashire

My mother-in-law would be mortified to find that her gggrandparents were both illegitimate

1855 Marriage cert says
George Illingworth living Chatburn father John Holgate both farmers
Ann Lawson living Sawley father Gabriel Carter Shopkeeper.

Can anyone find these peple in 1841.  I have the bride and groom in 1851 living in Downham

George was born c1822 Grindleton, mother probably Sarah
Ann Lawson born c1824 Sawley

MaryA found me a lot of Holgates in the area but there doesn't seem to be a John who was a farmer.  It could be made up but a John Holgate was a witness.

Thank  you for your help
