Cheshire Parish Records Marriages only pre 1837

[JDGen]

Hi,
Wondered if you might be able to find a marriage for Matthew Sykes about 1817 maybe at Bowden. He married Mary?
I think he died July-August 1860 Stockport and I think she may have died 1876 October-December Stockport.

Hi albino and welcome to Rootschat,

This looks like a good match:

Matthew SYKES, Bachelor, Gentleman, of Huddersfield m Mary GRATRIX, Spinster 23 Oct 1817 at Bowden by licence

Hi Jean

Thanks for your help.

I do have a photocopy of charles's marriage lines they married in church by licence. One of the witnesses a John Dunning married into Charles's wife's family the Wilkinsons of Tarporley. The History & Heritage church in Chester houses parish registers on film & they were very helpful.
 
Unfortunately, as chance would have it, Charles died in 1839 of "affection" of the head, (whatever that means)before the census started, I have his death cert & John Dunning registered the death.

I will try the record office again to ascertain if the licence can throw some light on it.

Appreciate your help and time, many thanks.

Hi again liverbird09

I wonder if that 1797 baptism is worth following up for more information - you could be lucky with the licence but they don't always hold much information.  Plemonstall is in the right area, and if there were any other Hibbert's baptised at the same time you might be able to follow some of the naming conventions.

Hope this helps,

Jean

PS.  I've just had a quick scout on the census and there are a couple of HIBBERT's born at Hoole - part of Hoole was in the parish of Plemstall / Plemonstall.  There is a couple in Cheshire in 1851, Thomas and Elizabeth HO107 2172/506 Page 25, he is 75 and she is 77.  And a Moses born Hoole in c1801, HO107 2172/441 Page 16 with a son called Charles......

Hi Jean
Thanks again for the search. I will check out the 1797 baptism of Charles next time I go to the record office, I obviously missed it in my first search, probably because I was short of time and tried to amass too much info in one visit, like we do.

I will have a look at Thomas and Elizabeth, they have about the right ages and those names feature in charles's family.

I think you are wonderfully generous and kind giving up so much of your time to help, it is much appreciated.
I will let you know how I get on.
many thanks

Please could you look up the marriage of William Crawford to Elizabeth, probably in Over, around 1822?

Any other Crawfords in Over would be helpful, too.

Thank you!

Hi sfir and welcome to Rootschat,

I have checked but the marriage you are looking for doesn't appear on the indexes that I have.

Sorry I couldn't be of more help,

Hiya,

Could you look up some for me please?

Samuel Bebbington - Anne (surname not known)
Pre 1814 - I think Acton area.

Samuel Bebbington (son of above) also married to Ann - think this may be too late for your records as 1st child born 1841.

Joseph Bates - Margaret
Aprox 1830
Crewe or Nantwich area.

(any Bebbington or Bates from these areas would be of interest as they all seem to be inter-related)

Thank You.

Thank you for looking.

I don't know where to go from here. William Crawford was rather random about his age on census returns and I don't know what Elizabeth's surname was. William was born in Duddon and Elizabeth was born in Over; in 1841 they were living in Over and their eldest child was probably born 1823-24. They had a son George, christened in Over on 6 Dec 1826. Their surname was written as Crawfort on one census and Crawfurt on another record.

It's all very interesting, though

Hi Gaille,

The only marriage in the correct timeframe is this:

Samuel BEBBINGTON m Ann BILLINGTON 18 Jan 1813 at Astbury St Mary

CheshireBMD has a couple of Samuel BEBBINGTON marriages post 1837:
Samuel BEBBINGTON m Fanny TURNER Sandbach St Mary 1840
Samuel BEBBINGTON m Mary Anne SWINTON Whitegate St Mary 1841

A full transcription of the second marriage is shown here: http://www.csc.liv.ac.uk/~cprdb/
 - Samuel's father is James.

The birth certificate of the child born in 1841 would give the mother's maiden name.

No matches for Joseph BATE or BATES
