Hi Barbara
Thanks for that. The birth certificate has her given name as Caroline Ann Gee with the mother's name as Worrall so I think that William Gee was probably the father. There's no one left who would know so I'm afraid that it really is best guess.

Hi Sam
I'm finally back from 4 days away working and you have been incredible! This information is fantastic. I've been hoping that a marriage certificate I ordered would be the right one but it wasn't...so frustrating! I've been trying to track down my grandfather's 1st marriage but I won't give up! I'm like a rottweiler once I set my mind to something! Thank you for all your help...without access to baptism certificates it's so difficult.

Don't mention the Smith's..My husband is a Smith as was his father and mother. I don't fancy having to untangle that lot!
Anyway, once more thanks for all your help. I'm off to pack for work and toddle off to bed. Think I need a lie down in a darkened room! So much information to take in.

Had plenty of practise LOL still have my own massive brick walls in the shape of Smith's and Jones' ; ) thrill of the chase keeps me going.

I can't find any of the Eccleshaw children's baptisms on the disc though sorry.

Thank you so much for looking. Appreciate all your help. One last question...George Worrall married Sarah Ann in about 1872...anything on your discs with her maiden name? Very cheeky of me to ask!

Samspade

Samspade Report 11 Sep 2008 21:03

There are only twenty nine burial records for the name of worrall starting from 1796 up to 1884 no luck there.

I've just remembered I didn't give you the addresses for the baptisms of George and Sarah Worrall's children
they were living at Leenside for the first three.
just noticed george has a different occupation and address for Edwards baptism so maybe he isn't yours.
6 leenside when caroline was baptised and Lees Yard for william herbert.Robert was 40 Malt Mill Lane
