in 1891 they were living at 1 earps farm cottage, warwickshire.

Hope you can help

Hi Michelle,

Hope you can help me get over my personal brick wall. I am looking for any information on George Thomas Gill who married Sarah Ann Cartwright in September 1865. He wasborn around 1839 in (I think) Paddington. He had 4/5 children one of whom was my grandmother Sarah Ann Gill. If you could discover his parents names and where he was born and the date I would be extremely grateful. Keep up the good work. Thanks for your time. Regards Vivienne

Could it be that Michelle is not doing this at the moment as she has not been back to this thread since september??

Taking a break from my own research and happy to help others stuck on brick walls for a while. Please give as much detail as possible.

Hi Irene

Thankyou Michelle

:-D


By the way -- have always assumed Lemuel was an error

this is his baptism record from Wool Parish Records
1839 4 Aug Samuel son of John & Eliza Harlick Labourer

Irene

Still checking the parents, but first thoughts are that John died. Trouble is there are a few possible deaths in that name between 1841-51.


I need a bit of time to work on this, so will post when i am sure.

Irene

No his name was Lemuel.

Strange name hey!

Still looking re parents:

But found this regarding the marriage of Samuel/Lemuel!!

235 - 23 Jun 1862 Samuel HORLOCK of full age a bachelor a Railway porter resident New Swindon Wiltshire ; father John HORLOCK a Labourer , married after banns to
Sarah CHESMAN of full age a spinster [no occupation given] resident Holy Trinity Dorchester father George CHESMAN a boatman witnesses Eliza Barge & James Masterman by Rev James Fisher Rector

So many mistranscripts with the names!!

Michelle --- that is interesting ..... the whole family is a mess --- I believe Elizabeth married as Louisa -- had a first child as Louisa -- then Samuel/ Lamuel and Martha as Eliza --

15-Dec-1811 Elizabeth Daughter of Philip Fox & Sarah -- Turners Puddle Dorset ----- Family search show the baptism as Eliza !

Either John married a Louisa -- then Eliza -- or Elizabeth was known as Louisa / Eliza ---- and I think that John and ""her"" were dead before 1861 --- I can find no trace of either Martha Henry --- ( You found Samuel ) perhaps they are all in another County Oxford Wilts

Many Many Thanks

Irene

Funny i just found the Fox one also and was looking for the link, as i did not know Eliza's maiden name.

Wow what a mix up!! I also think John was dead between 1841-1851. I did rule out 1 of the deaths. Eliza now we have these other names, could be under them for a death.
Spelling was always a problem on the census records as well as the baptism/marriage records.

Would you like me to look for more on Martha?

Michelle :)

Yes please and any thing on Henry

I think the odds of a John Horlock marrying two Fox girls -- Louisa first - them Eliza - having one child with Louisa and then two with Eliza --

and where was Samuel/Lemuel in 1861

Many Many thanks


:-D

Think this is Martha

It's a massive record so only showing top part. Husband as Richard Telford. And yet AGAIN the marriage is misspelt. This time for her groom.
