Shelbourne family and their ancestors
« on: Tuesday 06 August 13 15:55 BST (UK) »
Hope someone can help me before I take a wrong turn...I have been looking for various dates connected to the Shelbourne family who lived in and around the Grantham area. Several of the research sites only give the relevant quarter of the year concerned, and not exact dates, and only show Grantham itself as the place of birth/marriage/death. I have been to the archive office at Lincoln but did not find anything, mainly because I did not know the parish that I was looking for. Can anyone offer any advice other than apply for every certificate individually, which would be somewhat expensive?
 I have a William Shelbourne, b. A/M/J 1892 Grantham, his father John William Shelborn b. O/N/D 1862 Welby, who married Mary Jane Pulford A/M/J 1889 Grantham, she in turn being born O/N/D 1863 Grantham....and several others.
 I could not find any of these under Grantham records, hope someone can help , please.

 Thanks

Thanks for the newspaper items about the Shelbourne family, not sure yet where these people fit into the jigsaw but I suspect they are related somehow.
 Cheers

It looks to me as if one name has been changed to another ... but I'm not sure which.  :-\

I think the names are Harlaxton (which is near Grantham) and Harmston (near Lincoln). :)

EDIT: in 1871, I see them living in Leicestershire at a place called Harston :D
Only just in Leics - map http://www.streetmap.co.uk/map.srf?X=483715&Y=331960&A=Y&Z=120

In 1861, they were actually living in Sheffield.
Today I broke my personal record for most consecutive days alive.
