Nightingale Marriages
« on: Tuesday 01 October 19 07:16 BST (UK) »
Folks,
I am trying to sort out the marriages of John Nightingale and hoping someone has access to Huntingdonshire Marriage index.
I have a 1791 Ramsey marriage to Isabella Bossingham,they later baptise children in Yaxley.
There are baptisms 1795-1820 in Yaxley to John and Mary and John and Sarah.PR's show no marriages prior to 1825.
Thanks,
Eric

There's a burial in Yaxley in 1842 for Isabella Nightingale aged 70.

Can't see a John Nightingale marriage between 1792 and 1829.

On Freereg = John & Sarah
Joseph NIGHTINGALE   Baptism   23 May 1795   Huntingdonshire   Yaxley : St Peter

John & Isabella
Thoms NIGHTINGALE   Baptism   08 Jul 1798   Huntingdonshire   Yaxley : St Peter :

Susanh NIGHTINGALE   Baptism   06 Jun 1802   Huntingdonshire   Yaxley : St Peter

I wonder if the first one is an error?

John NIGHTINGALE   Burial   01 May 1829   Huntingdonshire   Yaxley : St Peter :   Age 58

As noted earlier post.
Isabella NIGHTINGALE   Burial   16 Jan 1842   Huntingdonshire   Yaxley : St Peter

John and Isabella Nightingale also baptised three children at Holme:
Sarah - 1791
Elizabeth - 1793
Mary - 1794

Hunts baptism index shows no children born to John and Isabella after Susannah in 1802, nor to John with anybody else after that time.
Marriage index shows only John and Isabella.
I'd be inclined to think that the two Yaxley baptisms giving John with wife Mary, and John with wife Sarah - since they fall in between records showing John's wife as Isabella - are perhaps down to careless record keeping.

Thank you all for your input.
The two Johns i have in my tree were added from marriage records of their children so nothing concrete.
I will add this family and see what it brings,maybe only one John needed.
Yaxley PR's in that period have errors and have noted incorrect spouses listed.
