Mother is Ruth Roberts, children Ruth Sarah 1863, Elizabeth 1865 and Patience 1866, also a William 1859 Derby and Robert Joseph Bakewell in 1861.

Hope you can turn something up for me.

Many thanks

Hello Derek
Thank you so much for all the help you have given me, and I can see you are busy.
But if you do have any spare time, yes I would love you to shed some light on the marriages,etc. I really am having no luck, as I said before I was getting nowhere at all.
I do not want to put on you at all, I do appreciate you are very busy, and doing such a wonderful thing to help us all. you deserve a medal, and very much appreciated indeed.
Yours thankfully

Hello Spiral...I have what you need...and on this` occasion IGI is correct....almost...!!

Thomas Alton married Rebecca Slater 15.09.1819..and fo a very good reason cos Rebecca was very pregnant indeed!! Witnesses were david Slater x his mark..and Mary newton x her mark.

Children of Thomas and Rebecca:
Hannah bapt. 24.10.1819
Mary bapt. 10.09.1822
Elizabeth bapt.18.09.1825
John bapt 14.10.1825 buried 14.10. 1828
William bapt.01.12.1833
George bapt 13.12.1835 buried 04.01.1836
James bapt 31.03.1843

Elizabeth (1825) married William Wilkinson 03.06.1855

William (1833) married Sarah Shipley 03.10.1854
and she was also pregnant (no telly inb those days!) and they had a son John William Alton bapt 03.06.1855

This is all completley accurate from the Parish records.....

anything else you need, let me know

Derek

Hi Derek, You asked me to let you know how I got on........

Re. Frederick Thomas Strong furniss Marriage cert. update................

I have received today the marriage cert. of the above to Mary Tossell in July 1843 in Birmingham, his occupation is a plumber, AND the father is John Furniss, which is what i was hoping for, fathers proffesion is down as Traveller, and I was really looking for Commercial Traveller but think this is still pretty conclusive that he is part of my Furniss clan, I have also found on the IGI baptism of Jane july 1844 in Kirkdale Lancs parents Faederick{Frederick} and Mary furniss, Mary is 6 in the 1851 census so everything ties in, and Marys birthplace throughout the census is given as Liverpool, West derby or Everton, all of which could be covered by Kirkdale.

The marriage cert. still dosn`t list the middle names Thomas Strong, but am pretty sure he is my man, would just be great if I could locate his baptism 1818 in Derby, I have all his siblings on the IGI, but not him.

Hello Derek
I know you are terribly busy with others, but I couldn't resist asking.

Would it be possible to find any information on a marriage around 1820 (give or take a couple of years- their first child is born 1824) of a Thomas Alton, he married a woman called Rebecca, in the South Wingfield area of Derbyshire.

The IGI has a submitted record in 1818 and gives Rebecca's name as Slater. I have learnt my lesson with submitted records, but would love to find out if Rebecca's name was Slater.

Any info would be very much appreciated

Many Thanks in advance
Spiral

Hi Wendy..I have checked your tree.with regard to the HOLME connection.....looks pretty accurate to me.....not much I can addd unless you want to know about marriages and children that are on the tree but which you haven't developed........
More than happy to do that if you'd like.....

Derek

Thanks very much any way Derek. I thought she may be a little late to be in any parish records, but just thought I'd ask in case she was there before getting a certificate.

Simon

Hello again Simon....unfortunately you're right at the end of transcripted parish records time-wise......the only option you have is the actual certificate....

Sorry.. derek

Hi Derek

I have a Blanche Joyce b 1893 in Glossop,Derbys.

She is a visitor in 1901 with the Collins family mis transcribed as Callins in Barnsley.

I could do with finding out her parents if possible ,if you have a baptism for her .

Thanks
Simon

Oh Derek
You deserve a HUGE pat on the back, it's incredible.
I could never have found any of that information, you are a petal.I shall put that on my tree now.
So many thank you.s I do not know where to start.
And as for Holme, It would be marvelous, I have been at a complete standstill for ages with that. not knowing where to turn next.
I still can not believe the info you have found though.
All I can say is Bless you. & bless you again.
Wendy

Thanks Derek. Looking forward to finding out more.
Regards
Jayne

Hello Jayne..its just as well I have a lateral thinking mind!! Suminsall doesn't exist..is in fact SOMERSHALL HERBERT..Derbys..and the other name you mentioned is ASHBY de la ZOUCH.
I've has a quick look.....Sarah was born in Somershall 01.01.1801..baptised ten days later.
she did marry John hall..has six kids with him and died in birmingham....

Thats just a start..more later..

Best wishes

Derek

Hi Wendy..one ot two bits og confirmation for you.

Eliza Callow.nee Aaron 1857-1898..died Salford 4th quarter 1898.....
She may have been taken to Chester for burial..but i have no evidence of that....although i can now confirm she WAS born Chester..Herv dad was some kind of benfit Society agent...and obviously moved around a bit...for instance frederich brother of Eliza was born in Manchester..although they moved to Salford..pretty much all in the same area i think..

Right.going back to Eliza Aaron, her parents..you can add a bit to your tree....John Aaron 1824-1889
married Sarah.not yet got her name.(1827-1889)
Their children were Eliza (probably actually born 1854 becasue her death entry 1898 shows her aged 44)
Ann 1859
Thomas 1857
William J 1861..all confirmed

and Richard Aaron b1868..he married a girl called mary and had a child Wilfred Aaron 1898.

hope you're enjoying this!!
I think i'll investigate the Holme bit next!!

Derek

Hello Derek
Wow thats great, you have a lot of patience, very much appreciated, I shall wait a bit, until you have looked a bit further, (that sounds a bit presumptious sorry) you mentioned you would have a little dig further.
I am so pleased to have your help, I was begining to think,I would never find any information.
Bless you.
Wendy

Hi Derek
I thought I would see if you could help. I have a Sarah Oldaker born in Suminsell, Derbyshire around 1801 to Ann (b c1772 in Ashbf Delaivaet, Leicestershire) but no father confirmed. Sarah married John Hall.
The surname is also shown as Oldacres. Would you be able to confirm any birth/marriage records for me?
Many thanks
Jayne

Hi Wendy..have had a look at your tree..you can add the following chidlren of John and Sarah Aaron:-

Eliza 1854
Thomas 1857
Ann 1859
William J 1861
Richard 1868

I'm being a little cautious right ow because i have found another John Aaron born 1827 married to an Eliza..with children John Sarah Maragret and Winifred..I'm discounting them for the moment..but am continuing to dig further...

Derek

Hello Derek
Yes that is a thought still all relatively new to all this.
Yes I have my tree here. you are very welcome to see it, not sure how I go about it.
My name is Wendy Coleman nee Holme.if that is any help.
Yes I would appreciate any help. I just seem to be always at a dead end, (please excuse the pun!)
Wendy

Hi Wendy......you might trying to phone Chester Cathedral Archives Office..ther will be a record somewhere of burials....I'll dig a bit deepr for you....there are bits earlier in the 19th century that youy might want to add to your tree.....Do you have a tree on here??

Derek

Hi Derek
Wow you wonderful gentleman, you deserve a star all to yourself, how did you do that, Brilliant, you deserved a lie down.
That is great, but still leaves me pondering, why my late father used to say his Grandmother was buried in the graveyard of chester cathedral, his mother was Sarah M Callow. still I can't believe you have found that out.
Many many thanks
Wendy sox1

Having said that..the impossible just takes a little longer........Eliza wife of William h Callow
married liverpool 1875 was in fact Eliza Aaron.one of five children of john and sarah Aaron of liverpool.......

I'm overcome with brilliance and have to go have a lie down!

More tomorrow

Derek
