Yorkshire (West Riding) / Re: why would some one have a vote in 1747
« on: Saturday 07 May 16 20:42 BST (UK)  »
Hi
John married a Martha Rock 1735, I think she was born 1710 father Abraham,  for years I have chased the wrong Martha.
she died 1742, John then married Sarah Waterhouse, John died 1755 in a pit explosion,  Sarah died 1755 a poor woman of the parish,  so if John had money what about Sarah, and what happens to John, Mary, and Martha from his first marriage,.

hi
In the 1840s my great grandmother was baptised with her grand parents as her own, I only discovered this because the man named as her dad died 5 years before she was born.
the in 1920s, one of my uncles who every body knew he  was born out of wedlock, put his granddads name on his marriage lines

Yorkshire (West Riding) Completed Requests / chasing the wrong Robert sykes
« on: Sunday 24 January 16 12:33 GMT (UK)  »
Hi
I have spent a long time chasing the wrong ancestor,  my Robert Sykes wed Sarah Harrison 1807 Silkstone,  the one I thought it was was Robert Sykes who was still having children with a woman called Mary, in 1806 amd 1811, Mary Sykes died 1813 all im Barmsley.
so where does my Robert come from,  and was he a bit of a lad, and had two families.
Sarah Harison was born 1787 at Worsbrough, so where was Robert Sykes
