Hertfordshire / Ignon Lines marriage 1775

« on: Sunday 20 November 22 13:47 GMT (UK) »

Hi all, does anyone have the copy of the marriage of Ignon Lines (various mispellings of his name) to Sarah Lines 20 April 1775 Harpenden. Looking for any information on Sarah, was she a widow? I know there were other Lines families in both Redbourn and St Albans (I have ruled out those in Rickmansworth as regards distance) but can't find her. She died Harpenden Aug 1814 age 65 which gives a birth year of about 1749. Any help appreciated, regards Pete.

Canada Lookup Request / Leonard Tingey 1884 Harpenden, Herts

« on: Saturday 16 July 22 10:30 BST (UK) »

Looking for any information on Leonard Tingey born 1884 Harpenden, Herts.
Emigrated to Canada arrived Quebec 23 May 1920 presumably seeking work. In 1921 and 1939 his wife and children are still in Watford, Herts but Leonard does not appear again on any English census or registers. He does not appear to have crossed to USA so I assume he must have stopped in Canada.
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks, Pete.

Hertfordshire Lookup Requests / Redbourn Parish records

« on: Saturday 14 May 22 11:51 BST (UK) »

I am afraid this is a very awkward one, I am looking for any Rachel, (Rachael) born in Redbourn between 1805 and 1807. From 1841 to 1871 she is living with John Smith 1790/1874 in Hemel Hempstead. No marriage found.
John was originally married to Jane Godwin (I have her parents) who will have died between 1829 and 1836 no death found.
I have all the Smith children from both partners but myself and many others have hit a total brick wall with the other details. Thanks for any help, regards, Pete

Other Countries / William G. Culverhouse Trinidad and Tobago

« on: Sunday 19 December 21 13:26 GMT (UK) »

Hi All, everything very sketchy on this one looking for William G. Culverhouse a planter in Trinidad but originally from UK. he married Irene D. Keece out there and had 4 children who all emigrated to U.S.A. but he and his wife are supposedly buried in Trinidad.
The children were:- Harold Guy Culverhouse 1919 San Fernando, Trinidad
Dorothy 1922 no place
William no dates or place
Hagar no dates or place
The only William G. Culverhouse born in England that I can't account for is William G. 1866 Northampton.
Any leads at all greatly appreciated, Thanks, Pete
