That's absolutely brilliant, Mike. Not only Florence's burial plot reference but a child we didn't even know about and a new name for her mother which she never appears to have used on any official document in her lifetime, preferring her middle name.

A wealth of information!!

Just found out that it would appear Florrie Fall (DOB 26/11/1917) grew up a Roman Catholic as that was her aunt's religion. So is there a way of checking the Catholic records to see if there is anything there? It's a father's name I'm particularly looking for (more particularly to check if it was actually Florence's soldier husband Harry Fall that was the father).

Thank you so much for the help so far. It's been great.

Hello again MIke
Did you find the baptism record for Ethel Agnes Ball? You affirmed the parent data I already had regarding their marriage/death/burial etc. It would be most helpful to know the baptism date - if it happened at St Margaret's.

If not perhaps you could point me in the right direction for this type of information - I have a few baptisms at St Margaret's to get through?

Kind regards

So sorry Mike, just read my original message and realised I didn't even ask for baptism data. :'(

Elizabeth Gask and Samuel Taylor married at St Margarets on 28 Dec 1826.
Can anyone give me the full details. I can`t find it on FindMyPast.
I have put another post about this, but am unable to modify the post.

 Just keep getting an error message ?

Hello,
I'd greatly appreciate it if Mike or someone else could look up the details of a marriage for me:
between John Millican and Ann Dunkley at St. Margaret's, 2nd Oct 1826

I'm particularly interested in where Ann Dunkley originated from...things like the names of witnesses might be helpful.

Thanks!

This is fantastic info, thanks! It means that I can look into buying the relevant parish registers to trace my Dunkley line (the Millican line goes back to Cumbria). Yes, if you could look into whether there were any witnesses, that would be marvellous.
