I have a Hannah Luke married by Licence to Ralph Lisle at Whittingham on 20 Dec 1831.

I've also got an image of the marriage allegation dated 17 Dec 1831 (both from Familysearch) which gives her father as Edward Luke

What I don't have is her baptism which I believe should be at Rothbury or Thropton in about 1811 (she is twenty it says on marriage allegation).  The usual searches have proved fruitless.  Also in later censuses she gives place of birth as alternately Rothbury or Gallowfield which I think refers to Gallowfield Brae which is just by Rothbury.

Does anyone have a copy of the Presbyterian baptism registers for Rothbury and/or Thropton and could look and see if Hannah is listed there ?

many thanks, Pete

Pete,

Thropton RC

Gallowfield. Born on 28 April 1812, baptized 29 April 1812, Anna Luke daughter of Edwardi and Anna Luke, formerly Donaldson. Godparents Andreas Robson and Margarita Robson.

Its in Latin, I think it will be the right one.

In 1841 census in Thropton, there is an Edward Luke, Molecatcher, aged 60, also Walter Luke, aged 20 in same household.

In 1851 census in Thropton, Walter Luke is aged 30, Molecatcher, born Thropton, and has an Eleanor Lisle aged 13 living in same household, presumably a Niece.

Also from Thropton RC, lots of other Luke baptisms, including :

Gallowfield - Thropton. Born 1 march 1821, baptized 4 March 1821. Gualbertus, son of Edward and Anna Luke, formerly Donaldson. Godparents Joannes and Margarita Robson.

Again its in Latin. This will be Walter, he's Walter in the index at the back.

Thanks WolfieSmith that's the right people !  I had another response last night from someone at the NDFHS with same idea.  Looks like a dynasty of Catholic mole catchers... Walter was one too.

Do you know where I can get a copy of the register ?  (Woodhorn/Durham ?)  Can exercise my school boy Latin skills at last  ::)
