Maiden Name Help
« on: Sunday 15 January 12 11:05 GMT (UK) »
Morning all!

Can somebody possibly help me try to discover a few maiden names as I've hit a brick wall and don't know where to look now!! All the details I have are below:

My 3* Great Grandmother - Mary (Long shot I know) - Born 1832 in Somerset - married a Daniel Martin in 1861 in Frome - Died 1864 in Cardiff

Anything would be greatly appreciated!!

Thanks

Amie

James Stott c1775-1850. James was born in Yorkshire but where? He was a stonemason and married Elizabeth Archer (nee Nicholson) in 1794 at Ripon. They lived thereafter in Masham. If anyone has any suggestions or leads as to his birthplace I would be interested to know. I have searched for it for years without success. Thank you.

Interestingly the marriage is also on the familysearch site

https://www.familysearch.org/

but they give a different date of 26 May. I suspect the date on the familysearch website is a date when the banns were read but to be sure of the correct date you would need to buy the marriage certificate or have a look at a copy of the parish registers somewhere

( .... and yet the old familysearch site gives the mariage as 10 June, so as I said above suspect the 26 May date is for banns
http://www.familysearch.org/eng/default.asp)

As you probably know there are two versions of the familysearch site, the old one with all the transcriptions and the newer pilot one which has far more records

I agree with David, the early date on family search is more likely to be banns. There are transcriptions for Cloford (confirming 10 June marriage) at http://www.fromeresearch.org.uk/
