Kitching or Kitchen Houst or Oust *completed with thanks

[allesond]

According to th Yorkshire Marriage Index for 1840: Thomas Kitchen married Maria Oust at St. James (Sutton) Hull HO/1/200.

I can find no birth records or marriage record in Ancestry.co.uk for these 3rd ggrandparents Thomas Kitching (1813 Burstwich, Yorkshire) and Maria Houst (Roos Yorkshire East Riding). And as such I can not trace back their parents.

Best regards,

Hi

If you get a copy of the marriage certificate it should show the bride & groom's fathers names.


The IGI has the following baptism

"Thomas Kitching, 2nd January 1814, Skeckling with Burstwick, mother Jane Kitching"

The fact that no father is named implies that Thomas was illegitimate.

Thank you Bee & Suzard!

I opened my Google Earth and saw that ST. James Sutton on Hull was same or near Sculcoates. I had not thought this was the same marriage information.  As well, I usually find the spouses on the same page and neither Maria Oust or Thomas Kitchen are on each other's page.

I will enter this new information on my ancestry tree.

Much appreciated,

Hi Alleston,

The marriage was registered in the registration district of Sculcoates
This is not the town where the marriage took place, but the registration district which the town where the marriage took place falls within. Sometimes registration districts spread over parts of 2 or 3 counties.

If you go to freeBMD and get up the marriage reg - then click on Sculcoates -you will get a list of the towns/villages which come within this registration district.

Sutton on Hull is in the Sculcoates reg district
