Parish Registers for Berwick-Upon -Tweed 1572-1924
« on: Tuesday 11 July 06 02:04 BST (UK) »
I have requested this 4 reel microfilm from the LDS. I have hit a brick wall of years standing and I am determined to get past it.  I am willing to look up for folks... but, I will need specific information and please...if the information is not that important to a tree or can be verified elsewhere..be kind.

Hi Sharon,

l would like to take up your kind offer for Berwick on Tweed, and l hope you can help with my brickwall.

What l have is from the 1841 Census and what l have manage to find out:-

John Young 40 Tanner not born this county
Margaret 40 wife not born this county. 1851 census says Scotland.
Robert 20 son, Jane 15 daughter, James 14 all born Berwick on Tweed. Eleanor, 11, George 9, Margaret 5, John 2 all born Yorkshire.
l think Margaret's maiden name could be Renwick as Robert was christened Robert Renwick Young. The closest l could come to was a John Young married Margaret Renwick 13 Aug 1820 West Linton, Peebles, Scotland. Just maybe  the Parish Registers will either confirm or give me more to go on. If you could find anything before 1841 l would be very grateful.

kindest regards
Jean

I am waiting for the films to arrive.   I did not want you to think I had forgotten...and I can do plenty of look ups.  I was hoping that they would arrive before I had to go to work!!  School opens up here in another week and I am teaching 11th and 12th grade English...  I also requested two other films...Etal Presbyterian baptisms 1751-1828 if you want me to look there...the other is for Mordington, Berwickshire, Scotland.

I ordered the films last week and the people at the reference desk said it can take between 2 and 4 weeks for them to come in. I will take a look for you.

Hello Sharon,
When you are ready, we would like to take up your kind offer of searching through Berwick Parish Records. We know Elizabeth Hogg married James Holme at Holy Trinity, Berwick on 18/12/1808. What we would like to know is any information on Elizabeth Hogg - i.e. her birth - probably about 1786, her parents, siblings etc. anything you can dig up. It would be most appreciated. Thank you.
