Hi
Can you clarify exactly what kind of info you are looking for apart from the marriage. He is on the 1841 and you have his death 8yrs later so he didn't disappear without trace as your header suggests. Looks like Agnes pre-deceased him
Deaths March qtr 1844
Agness Diamond Carlisle 25 37
Hi Carole, I was referring to the non-appearance - no birth/baptism for him and no marriage.
Matthew died in 1849 a long time before Agnes who died in 1890 in Carlisle, her two unmarried daughters and widowed son living with her at the time.
She also called herself Ann and on the 1861 census her name is written badly (Daimond) but mis-transcribed as Dimond (though if you look at the image the "a" is visible after the "D". Her unmarried daughters living with her, 1871 sees the widowed son at home as in 1881, and still the same two unmarried daughters. this time her name is clearly Ann Diamond a name she used on the death certificate of her baby granddaughter (the child of her married daughter who died after complications in childbirth).
William age 8 on 1841 Census, his baptism:
William Laidlaw Diamond
Baptism:06 Jul 1832
DUMFRIES, SCOTLAND
Father:Mathew Diamond
Mother: Agnes Kirkpatrick
Residence Dumfries, Scotland
His sister Agnes baptised in Carlisle:
Baptism: 22 Jan 1837
Residence :Carlisle, Cumberland
Parents: Mathew and Agnes Diamond
There's a Jean Diamond baptised in 1822:
Baptism:16 Jul 1822
DUMFRIES, SCOTLAND
Father:Mathew Diamond
Mother: Agnes Kirkpatrick
I do have the birth/baptisms of all (I assume) 9 of her children including Mary Ann (who married James McTurk) my Gt Gt Gt Grandparents - Mary Ann is the daughter who died age 38 after childbirth. William died in 1919, his sister Elizabeth died in 1912.
It's Matthew (1790 ish - going from the census in Scotland) and his parents I can't locate for birth/baptism or his marriage to Agnes Kirkpatrick
