Sue Brown's Derbyshire Marriage Index 1538-1837

Hello Louise,

If Samuel in Wirksworth was an innkeeper then he should appear in the 'Alehouse Recognisances' where the alehouses were licenced by the justices from c1753. If the Sam who appears in Alfreton has the same occupation then the connection is likely but if he changed his occupation it makes the link more difficult! Pub names are rarely given in these records. They are kept at Derbys RO at Matlock, sorry I haven't got any reference nos.

I hope this helps.

I must be doing something wrong as I can't get it to work.  Search results come up with the name Newton even though I have'nt put that name in.

Anyone else having trouble?

Just tried the site and am also getting information about the Newton family which is not a name that I inserted.

Hello everyone, I'm afraid that the site went live (not by me) before the problems of accessing it had been sorted. I have the same results as you when I try entering a query, it's not quite how I envisaged it somehow!

If you have a specific query then let me know and I'll search the index for you.
Sorry about all this.

Sue

Hello,

This is just to let you know that the web site is now live and behaving itself, the name you search under should bring up your request.
