Advice on posting broad lookup request on Rootschat

[heywood]

Just found same query on this thread from a few months ago

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php?topic=692792.18

I posted the link at reply#5 on this thread.
I suppose YB is trying to find any other options.
It is looking as though they didn't marry - good Catholic or otherwise.

If the birth certificates are in order and imply that the couple were married, then perhaps a baptism check for the first child would confirm a church and would give a starter to double check church records.

It looks as though Loretta's mother Jane died in Leyburn district so again perhaps it's best to start there.

I see that Aysgarth is mentioned on the other thread. Is this the first marriage, if so I can't see a death that fits?

George William Hammond
Frances Hopper
Aysgarth 1890

Hi groom,


1913. Frances Hammond 49 yrs Leyburn

Yes the 1913 death loks like the one. And probably why OP put 1913 as earliest for marriage to Loretta Garvey.

So looks like both parties free to marry.

[lizdb]

Unless George married someone else after 1913 but before getting together with Loretta probably not that long before 1923.

[Craclyn]

There is a marriage in Hull in 1915 which could be a second one for George.

[heywood]

The difficulty is that it is there are quite a lot of George Hammonds. There are 3 possibilities in Hull area in 1911.
I had looked at one in Teesdale 1917 but again there are other possibilities in 1911.
