Renfrewshire / Re: Joseph Buchannan

Hi Rosie,

Thank you for your reply. As I mentioned I am doing the research for a friend and I was hoping that there might be records available(or someone might have access to them) with out any extra costs being incurred. I  dont know Joseph's mothers name. I know his father as Sarah has a copy of his marriage certificate, however, as he married in Yorkshire this only gives the father's name.

Hi I am trying to help a freind with her family hiistory and i am struggling to get back on her Buchannan line. Her grandfather Joseph buchannan was born 17 January 1909 or 17 January 1910(there is some confussion as to which year is correct) at 10 Backcauseway Glasgow (father James). I wonder if anyone access to baptism records or census returns. Any help will be most appreciated.

Derbyshire Lookup Requests / Marriage of Alice Winfield and John Nicholson 1924 Chesterfield

Hi I wonder if anyone has access to marriages for Chesterfield for the above couple.  I am doing a very basic tree for my freinds birthday and have been fortunate on most of her ancestors as they were good surnames and I was able to access a lot of on line data, however on this branch I cant get any further on John Nicholsons line with out access to the data from the marriage certificate as the only piece of information I know for certain is that he married Alice Winfield. I dont have a birth or death record for him.

Any help will be most appreciated.

Hi Peramar,

Thank you for your reply. In answer to your question it helps in the sense that it further confirms that Ann, the wife of Joshua died, in 1798. It doesnt unfortunatley answer the question regarding whether Joshua remarried or who to!

Thank you all for your responses. You are all correct. My direct ancestor Joshua Drake married Ann Dixon 24 November 1791. They had three known children - Benjamin born 1793 died 1798, Hannah born 1794 died 1860(my direct ancestor) and Christopher born 1797and died 1798. Ann died in 1798, so I am assuming that  the disease that killed two of her children also killed her. However, Joshua was left a widower with a young daughter. Therefore, it would be resonable for him to look for a new wife to care for his daughter.

The marriage in 1801 fits.  I know that because something fits does not make it correct but..... I have looked for a Joshua Drake born in the correct time frame and failed to find one. My Joshua was born in 1766(father Joshua) and died I think in 1825. I have discounted the Hartshead births, these, I think, are a different family. 

If any one is able to find another Joshua Drake whose marriage it could be I would be interested to hear. I should add that Joshua Senior(the father of Joshua) only had two sons, the youngest of which Benjamin born 1769 did have a son named Joshua but he wasnt born until 1825.

Many thanks,

Sandra

Thank you for your comments. The assumption on the status of the bride and groom makes sense, but its not what I wanted hear!

Thank you for your response. I was hoping that Joshua and possibly Mary would be shown as a widower/Widow and that the witnesses may be family members. You can't win them all!

Hi,

I wonder if someone would be kind enough to have a look at a marriage for me? The marriage in question is between Joshua Drake and Mary White Doncaster 2 February 1801. I would like to know the status of the bride and groom and who the witnesses were. Many thanks in anticipation.
