Apprenticeship lookup
« on: Wednesday 09 February 11 15:39 GMT (UK) »
Please would someone be so kind as to look up Parish Apprenticeship records for Blacksmiths in the Castle Bytham, Stamford area. I am looking for a Francis Allen.

Thanks you

 :) what years are we talking about?  would you need to look at Origins?

FindMyPast have Apprentice records for 1710-1774 only and they are not sorted by county, or even year, only into series, Series 1 covers 1710 to 1762 and Series 2 covers 1763 to 1774.  That means it's necessaary to plough through all pages of A.s covering Allen, so before I do, let me know the dates you are looking at.

Thnaks for your replies.

Francis Henson Allen was born in 1786 and died in 1818.   So somewhere during this period he was a Blacksmith in the Castle Bytham Area.

Hope someone can shed a light on this.

Have you tried Lincolnshire Archives to see if they hold any apprenticeship records?  You can contact them via their website.
