Newcastle St George 1870 marriages anyone?
« on: Sunday 15 March 09 07:24 GMT (UK) »
Hi all,

Does anyone have access to 1870 Newcastle St George marriages?

I'd be interested in the details for the Elizabeth Bayley / John Astbury marriage in the last quarter of 1870 (I have the GRO references but they're not a direct line, so we are trying to avoid purchasing a cert)   

The young bride Elizabeth Bayley is hard to pinpoint on the 1861 census (later censuses have her born ca. 1854 Newcastle, Stoke or West Bromwich) - her father's name would hopefully make it easier.

Grateful for any help  :)

Hi Peter - Thanks a lot for looking!  :D

Fortunately John is accounted for in 1851 - John Asberry age 4 in West Bromwich (dreadful census image too!). Concerning Elizabeth, I really have no idea. Her age is pretty consistently pointing towards a ca. 1855 birth and, allowing for different spellings, I found several contenders in 1861.

Think we'll have to fork out for the cert  :P

I should be visiting Stoke on Trent Archives next week so could look it up if you can hang on a while.
