Looking for Mary Ann Burt and her father James Burt, or any other family member.
I have her fathers name from Mary Ann's marriage cert dated 1875 which said that she was 27yrs old.
From this she must have been born abt 1848 and in Weymouth.
Thanks for any help

OK I haven't been able to find Mary Ann or her father James Burt yet, as some of the images aren't able to be viewed. I have gone through about half of what there is for Weymouth, and I have found what would appear to be another family members.
Here's the info so far:
1851 Census (1857 Weymouth)
Township of Weymouth, Ecclestiastical District of Weymouth , Borough of Weymouth & Melcombe Regis
Page 5, Entry 21
Address: Ellis Court, Hope Street No 1:
William Burt, Head, Married, 49, Occupation – Tidemaster (?) H.M. Customs, Born Dorset, Ringstead (?)
Mary Burt, Wife, Married, 45, Born Hants, Heron (?)
Elizabeth Burt, Daughter, unmarried, 12, born Dorset, Weymouth
Ann Burt, Daughter, scholar, 9, born Dorset, Weymouth.
Page 5, Entry 22
Address: Ellis Court, Hope Street No 2:
George Burt, Head, married, 76, Occupation – Fisherman; Born Dorset, Poole
Lydia Burt, wife, married, 70; Born Dorset, Ringstead
George Leggett, grandson, unmarried, 15, occupation – fisherman (?), Born Dorset, Poole.
(?) I'm pretty certain that's what these are judging by the writing, but can't be 100% positive about this.
I'll keep looking and hopefully see about getting the rest of the images - there seems to be a problem with the actual CD because some images I can view, others the file won't open. Hopefully I'll have some more luck later on. I'll post again when I find some more.
Hope this is helpful for you to start with anyway.
Cheers Anita
could anyone please check for me if the george leggett named above (i found it searching through previous requests) in a later census is shown to marry a Catherine Thompson?? or indeed if he has brother's and sisters ( charlotte, charles, ruth, john, william, elizabeth, sarah, james, harriet)
heavy sussex links - so i know it's a long shot to dorset!
thankyou
