Nottingham St Mary's marriages - please help - Palmer/Plackett/Jessop
« on: Friday 13 December 19 16:35 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

I wondered if anyone might be able to help me please? I am looking for the marriages and or banns of ELizabeth Palmer and her mother Mary Palmer as I would like to know if they were widows and who the witnesses might be.
I can find the civil registration for ELizabeth's but can't find anything for Mary. I have looked on Ancestry, FindMyPast and FreeREG. Ideally I want to be able to view images of the parish register but can't find it online anywhere!

Elizabeth Palmer married Henry Plackett in 1840
Mary Palmer married William Jessop in 1833 (hence no civil registration).

Mary had Elizabeth before she got married or perhaps Elizabeth's father died hence Mary marrying again so I am not sure who Elizabeth's father is. If Mary married as a spinster then Elizabeth is likely illegitimate and the likelyhood of finding her father is slim. If she married William Jessop as a widow then it will be easier to determine Elizabeth father.
I can not find a baptism of Elizabeth Palmer daughter of Mary Palmer as this may also have given me a clue.

Elizabeth married Henry Plackett after having George Palmer (my ancestor) and Mary Ann Palmer. I can not find baptisms for either. I suspect Henry Plackett is the father of these 2.

I am trying to find if there were any hearings by the poor Law to determine the fathers of George and his mother ELizabeth as written evidence but I don't think there is anything like that in Nottingham.

It is like none of them exist in the Parish registers but I have found all of them in the census records.

If you can help I would be really grateful.

Best wishes,
Emma

Does Elizabeth name a father on her marriage certificate?

According to the Notts FHS the PRs are at Notts Archives

https://nottsfhs.org/society-projects/parish-registers/

I must say the online catalogue is difficult.

Hi there

On the NFHS CD both entries are from St Marys

Elizabeth Palmer married Henry Plackett on 22/06/1840
Mary Palmer married William Jessop on 11/07/1833

You can view the Parish entries on a fiche at the Nottingham Records Office for St Marys as I've viewed them myself when looking for my own family records.
