Birth Lookup Please - CHERRY

Could the father's name be WOTTON? In 1871 she gave her age as 57, which could tie up with a baptism of Rebecca Wotton at Dunstable on 26 June 1814, father John

You might have to purchase the birth cert of one of her children to have another go at her maiden name

Hello John,   you are a good help, i was going to scan the cert which isn`t a good one so i clicked on attach and nothing happened.   Yes i think the name could be Wotton so its a birth cert for one of the children i guess.  That must be her then at Dunstable 1814.    Thanks very much indeed.  Regards Gladys.

Hello Gladys, 

Interesting thought David... there is a FreeBMD marriage in Oct-Dec 1837 of a Rebecca Wooton in Luton RD vol 6 page 154 - shame that there are no other names listed for that same page.

Regards John

I still can't find a marriage of a Rebecca Wotton to a Cherry though. Perhaps John can come up with the goodies!

David (not John)

Good spot John. I knew I could rely on you!

There's also an Emanuel Cherry marriage in Luton in Dec 1837 vol 11 p 157. He was buried age 23 on 10 Nov 1838 at Dunstable

QED?

even better.... the FreeBMD site finds me Emanual Cherry in Luton RD vol 11 page 157 in Dec qtr 1837, the page number is suspect - if you click on it the other names are in Bristol.

Now when did Emanuel die - thought I saw a death index entry for him in Leighton Buzzard in 1844 - after the 1843 marriage ?

cheers David - I got the wrong Emanual.    John

Hello John & David,   have you sorted me a marriage out as amm getting mixed up here   i shall have a look on Free BMD now.  Thank you very much. Regards Gladys.

We're chasing each other's tails here! I was just going to comment on the incorrect reference in the middle of the Bristol batch!

For a belt and braces job Gladys ought to get this marriage cert, using the Rebecca Wooton reference, but I'm pretty comfortable about it

Where did it take place that it's not on the IGI?
