Birth Look Up/ Cradley/Sarah Gittins circa 1849
« on: Monday 27 September 10 08:33 BST (UK) »
Hi

I am trying to get a date of Birth for Sarah Gittins born Cradley circa 1849. I think the district was Bromyard. 

Her father was Timothy Gittins and mother Charlotte Smith.  Would someone be kind enough to look up this record for me as I wish to send for her Birth Certificate.


I do know there was another Sarah Gittins born around the same time but she had a twin sister Hannah.

I would really appreciate help with Sarah's birth and any other information that you come across.

Thank you in anticipation.

Hi Maeabbie,

This looks the most likely birth registration in my opinion:

Sarah Gittins
Sep 1848 Bromyard 26 172

Thank you for your help. I will send for this now. :)

You helped me when I first starting researching and I have made some wonderful contacts along the way. My husband and I now go regularly to Ripponden to meet up with fellow researchers of the name Hopkinson.  This Sarah Gittins married an Edward William Hopkinson in Cradley Parish Church.

Thank you once again. :)

Aaaaw - that's very nice to hear  :) (And thanks for remembering me)

I do hope I gave you the correct reference. There's another one in the same registration district in Dec 1849 but I ruled her out because she seems to be on the censuses with different parents.
