Barnes - Great Yarmouth - birth/marriage and death look-ups
« on: Sunday 27 July 08 20:03 BST (UK) »
Can anyone please help me by looking up any birth/marriage and death details on the following people from the Great Yarmouth area:

John Barnes and his wife Mary (nee Morling?) both born circa 1796 - very approx in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk.

Their children:

Jerh Barnes (Jeremiah?) - born abt 1821 in Great Yarmouth
Louisa Barnes - born abt 1821 in Great Yarmouth
Elizabeth Barnes - born about 1826 in Great Yarmouth
Thomas Slater Barnes - born abt 1826 in Great Yarmouth
Jas Barnes (Jasper?) - born abt 1827 in Great Yarmouth
Hart Barnes - born abt 1829 in Great Yarmouth
Geo Barnes (George?) - born abt 1833 in Great Yarmouth

I would also be interested to find any ancesters of John and Mary Barnes if anyone can shed any light on these!

Thanks in advance

Thanks The Yokel. 

I will be interested to see some birth details particularly the early births of some of their children as if Mary was indeed Mary Morling the early children pre-date their marriage.  If anyone is able to confirm the correct marriage details i would be most grateful.

Regards

According to the IGI - mostly submitted entries - the marriage of John Barnes took place 5/7/1810 St. Nicholas, Gt. Yarmouth to Mary Ann Mills.

Children were (some earlier to those you know of:

John Mills Barnes b.25/3/1811, bp.27/3/1811 (d.1811-1814?)
Charles Nollorth Cooper Barnes bp.18/1/1812
Mary Ann Barnes bp.19/4/1813
John Barnes bp.29/8/1814
Mary Mileham Barnes bp.20/8/1816
Thomas Mills Barnes bp.8/7/1818 (or 1817 - must have died before 1825)
Louisa Rachel Barnes bp.6/11/1818 (?)
Sarah Maria Barnes bp.7/7/1819
Jeremiah Barnes bp.11/12/1820 d.1871
James Barnes bp.24/1/1822 (must have died pre 1827)
Elizabeth Barnes bp.24/2/1823
Thomas Stringer (??) Barnes bp.20/4/1825
James Barnes bp.4/4/1827
Harriet Barnes bp.14/2/1829
George Barnes bp.17/9/1832.

All baptisms show mother as Mary Ann Mills.   With both of them bc.1796 on 1841 census this gives possible birthdate between 1792-96.   They'd have been around 17/18 when they married I guess - she definitely had to have been young to have all these children one after the other.

Thank-you so much for your hard work Annette.  This all looks very promising and i am very grateful!

My next step will be to try and get back a bit further with John Barnes and Mary Ann Mills. 

If anyone can help me with these few outstanding facts i would be most grateful:

John Barnes born circa 1792-1796 Great Yarmouth ; died?
Mary Ann Barnes (nee Mills) born circa 1792-1796 Great Yarmouth; died ?
The parents and ancesters of the above?

Thanks again.

Oh dear well if there is more than one John Barnes and Mary it looks like im going to find it very difficult! 

From the 1841 census i note that they are in deed both 45 and so born about 1796.  They have 7 children Louisa, Jerh?, Elizabeth, Thomas Jas, Hart and Geo.  So i guess these are some of the right children.  I have Thomas on the 1851 census although as a servant in Lichfield - he is a butcher's assistant, which is the same trade as his dad.  Perhaps someone could check the 1861, 1871, 1881 etc census' in respect of the Barnes family to follow the family - if any of the children are born after 1837 would a birth certificate include a maiden name?

Just an idea - although any other ideas would be welcome!

thanks in advance.
