Simple Parish Lookups - COMPLETED

[pwitz]

Going to Lincoln Archives on Saturday 3 October.

If anyone would like me to look anything up in the Parish Records, please give me as much information as possible and I'll do my best!

Oooh Polly,

Thanks so much for your offer -
I have a Frances Surfleet marrying Edward Campbell on 14 March 1825 at St James, Great Grimsby  (from Vital Records Index). Could you check it for me and see if there is any more information?

Could I be cheeky too, and ask if you could find Frances Surfleet's baptism?
She is also known as "Fanny", on her son Charles' baptism at Grimsby on 23 November 1825.
She gives her age as 49 (b abt 1802) and place of birth as North Kelsey, in the 1851 census, but the only one I can find, on the IGI is a "male" Francis Surfleet, baptised on the 22 September 1799.

It is really good of you - thanks again Polly,

Yorkslass

Hello Geoff-E,

Thanks for taking the trouble to look that up for me.  I have seen that one - and it's also on the IGI site, same date, but under "Thorganby".

I know Thorganby/Swinhope are only about 10 miles from North Kelsey.  I just wondered if someone had made an error in the North Kelsey baptisms and the Francis who was baptised was really a Frances!!

She is consistent on the two censuses '51 and '61 that she was born in North Kelsey....but on the '51 she says she's 49 (born 1802) and the '61, she's 63 (born 1798)

Thanks again,
Yorkslass

Hi pwitz

Thank you once again for your kind offer.

I have 6 children baptised in Grainthorpe
Robert 30.10.1791
Richard 16.3.1794
Ann 26.7.1795
Innocent 30.12.1796
Christiana 25.12.1798
Thomas 4.1.1801

on Hugh Wallis all children of John Lee and Mary

Would you be able to look for a marriage for John and Mary in Grainthorpe just before 1791 so that I can cross Grainthorpe off the list or otherwise?  I have not been able to find a marriage so far

Thank you

Kerry

Added - Geoff E has kindly pointed out to me a marriage between a John Lee and Mary Hodgson in Marshchapel in 1774 which could be a possibility although that makes Mary 49 when she had Thomas!

I believe Marshchapel is not far from Grainthorpe and there are several children to them in Marshchapel and continuing in Grainthorpe.  So if a later marriage could be found that would discount that possibility, again or otherwise.

Noted, Kerry.
