Rogers marriage lookup please
« on: Saturday 11 April 15 02:43 BST (UK) »
Hi,
I'm having trouble finding a marriage for the following
Silvester Rogers (b. 1786) to Arabella ? on or around 1806 in Carlton Scroop, Grantham, Linc.
Arabella died 1836 so doesn't appear on any census records. She is recorded with no surname on birth index's of her children. Would like to know what her surname is. I have ordered a death certificate on one of her children, Louis Silvester Rogers which may help but cant seem to find a marriage in any of the indexes for her.
Sorry I don't have much more info.
Any help is appreciated. :)

FreeREG have the transcription of Carlton Scroop registers - there is no marriage for Silvester Rogers listed.

All Saints, Hougham - 22 October 1809 - Silvester Rogers, Bachelor, of Grantham and Arabella Scoffin, Spinster, otp.  Witnesses:  Robert Scoffin and Christ'r A....field.

From FreeREG again - is this Silvester's baptism?

St Nicholas, Carlton Scroop - 29 August 1784 - Silvester, son of Silvester and Elizabeth Rogers.

There appear to be a number of children, baptised in Grantham for Silvester and Arabella.

Thanks so much Bumble B and Trish 1120  ;D This is huge help and indeed this is my Silvester and Arabella. Given that Silvester lived and died in Carlton Scroop I assumed the marriage took place there but I should have heeded my own rule - never assume anything when it comes to family history  ;D Another brick wall taken down.

Thanks for filling in a few details on my Rogers line. My records have Sylvester Rogers Snr marrying Elizabeth Farmer (b. 1759 Hougham, d. 1845 Grantham). Sylvester Rogers Jnr made the move into Grantham and became established as an ironmonger before becoming Mayor twice. He was also a fire insurance agent. His premises are still visible at the back of the Angel and Royal Hotel. At my last count he had 14 children with Arabella.
