William SCOTT, b1750 in Great Orton
« on: Sunday 22 July 07 12:26 BST (UK) »
I'm looking for any information other forum members may have on a distant ancestor, William SCOTT, born 1750 in Great Orton, Cumberland.

William was born on 2nd December 1750 and went on to marry Elizabeth (surname unknown), who was born c1755. They went on to have five children together; Mary, John, William, Joseph & Anne.

All were born in St Giles, Great Orton, Cumberland as far as I can see.

Can anybody offer any further information in relation to these persons?

Ideally, I am looking for Elizabeth's maiden name and also the parents' names of both William and Elizabeth.

Thanks in advance ;)


Note: I've found this parish register on Ancestry.co.uk but I'm not currently a subscriber and reluctant to subscribe if the information isn't contained in the register.

I think this marriage may relate to William Scott Jnr and not William Scott Snr born 1750.

Thanks for the info though ;)
