Elizabeth MAJOR - Broomfield Somerset.
« on: Saturday 01 September 07 12:09 BST (UK) »
Has anyone access to the baptism register of Broomfield please? Link via Genuki appears to be broken and can’t find her on IGI!  Elizabeth Major - According to census returns after her marriage born there circa 1828. Marriage 1856 Dorchester. Certificate gives “full age” and father as James Major labourer.
Am looking to confirm father’s name and obtain details of mother also siblings if any. An Ann Major was witness to the marriage.
Many thanks, any help gratefully received.

Hi Joburg

Very many thanks, that’ll be the one, pity the mother’s maiden name not shown.

Will now have to find the marriage of a James Major to Ann (?)  :( and also see if the family appears in the 1841 census. Have got Elizabeth as a nursemaid at Dorchester in 1851 in the household of a surgeon.
