ancestry - Derbyshire marriage lookup request
« on: Monday 10 April 23 04:49 BST (UK) »
Trying to find info (especially whether widow/widower etc, and parents names), regarding the marriage of William Holmes and Sarah Pearson registered in Derby in Q4 1860. Appears to be at St Peters. Possible entry at ancestry under 'Derbyshire, England, Church of England Marriages and Banns, 1754-1932'
Thanks.

Thank you - I wish I knew where they are hiding in the 1861 census.

Possibly in Church Gresley:

William HOLMES  31  Appleby  (coal miner)
Ann                         22  Manchester
RG9/1962/52 pg25

https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:M7HX-QBF

Ages are about right and his birthplace, though why she is "Ann" and of Manchester I'm not sure - compared to the 1871 where she says born Gloucestershire (if I have the right family).  :-\

Modified to strike through - actually I don't think this is the right family, the child with them in 1871 has mother's maiden name JONES.

I'm wondering if the 1860 marriage is the wrong couple...
Does anyone have access to marriage info re the William Holmes and Sarah Pearson whose marriage was registered in Belper Q4 1847 ?
Thanks

She married George Holmes at Wirksworth :). Her father was Joseph Pearson and his was Thomas Holmes

ADDED William Holmes married Hannah Frost
