Trying to find Bouskill

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

My GGG Father George Stephenson Coulston DOB 1863c married Elizabeth Bouskill DOB 1869c, her mother was Elizabeth Bouskill DOB 1835c and father Nicholas DOB 1835c - I have come to a stop.....cannot seem to find any further information.

In the family I believe we had a John, Amelia DOB 1860's and Annie, James, Albert and Jessie DOB 1890's.

Any help is better than none.

Thanks

Janet Peart nee Coulston

Nicholas' marriage ( only two on page):

Bouskill Nicholas Holbeck 9b 431
Groves Arthur Holbeck 9b 431

All the Elizabeths married in same quarter:
Marriages Dec 1863 (>99%)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Beecroft Elizabeth Holbeck 9b 434
Birdsell Elizabeth Holbeck 9b 441
Gill Elizabeth Holbeck 9b 440
Sargison Elizabeth Holbeck 9b 425

I have checked all the images and they all seem to be correctly transcribed. I think getting Nicholas's cert will be the only way to be sure, although I would guess at Elizabeth Beecroft.
