Hi Going over my tree and I can't find the marriage for Elizabeth Tattersall and Thomas Hornby 1852 I've been doing my tree for years but never put the source of info so now I'm struggling When I look for a marriage for Elizabeth I find a few but not to Thomas Hornby
I've found that Findmypast have the original but I'm not a member so if anyone can get the original for me it will help I hope may be give her father?
The date is 3rd May 1852 at Gisburn Yorkshire
Elizabeth was born 1827 Thomas 1728
Years ago there was a site that gave church records I used a lot but I don't think it's on now Thank you

NO parental info on records as old as that
Only after the introduction of Civil Registration in July 1837 did the fathers' names appear on marriage certs. Make a note for future reference

The dates you quote simply don't add up :-S :-S

The site you refer to is probably..............

https://www.familysearch.org/en/search/
It has always been available!!!!!!!!!

Thank you I've spent all day looking at the records I could find for BMD in Gisburne I have seen the one on famiysearch but wishful thinking I was hoping for that bit extra as Erika has put on 2 Elizabeth Tattersall's going off the trees I've seen I think George could be the father as the one with Charles Elizabeth has married some one else that's what got me bothered
I'll look into the 2 Elizabeth Tattersall's

The site I was on about wasn't family search I think it was a Man's name ?

Have you made contact with the other GR members who have Thomas and Elizabeth in their Trees?

They may have useful info.........................

Like you, they have recorded both Thomas and Elizabeth's birthplaces as Gisburn............perhaps one of them has PROOF. They may, of course, be simply making assumptions based on location of marriage with no real reason to do so.
