Birth/Christening, 1825 - 1845, Yorkshire, England, British Isles
Father: Richard Blythe, Mother: Nancy

1. ISABELLA BLYTH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 24 FEB 1842 Hawes, Yorkshire, England
Father: RICHARD BLYTH Mother: NANNY
2. JOHN BLYTH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 14 AUG 1825 Hawes, Yorkshire, England
Father: RICHARD BLYTH Mother: ANN
3. JOHN BLYTH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Christening: 23 AUG 1826 Hawes, Yorkshire, England
Father: RICHARD BLYTH Mother: ANN
4. MARY BLYTH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Female Christening: 06 NOV 1836 Hawes, Yorkshire, England
Father: RICHARD BLYTH Mother: NANNY

so Nanny is another name for Ann!

some of the dates do not seem to fit, but don't forget these are Christening dates and not birth dates. Sometimes children were christened years after their birth.

So did Richard marry twice:-
RICHARD BLYTH - International Genealogical Index
Gender: Male Marriage: 04 JUL 1835 Hawes, Yorkshire, England
Spouse: ANN THWAITE

i had wondered that my self, i got the marriage for 1825 to ann calvert and also noticed the 1835 marriage to ann thwaite, i have looked on family search but not found any solid proof that he married twice

hi catherine, i was wondering if you could help me, am looking for the death of matthew blythe born 1831 hawes yorkshire, he married a isabell sayer on 11/11/1858 they didnt have any children but adopted a child called john johnson, i found a article on google about the work house he was master of and it says he was still on the board of guardians in 1907,
any help will be much appreciated

The nearest I could see was the following:-

Deaths Dec 1911 (>99%)
Blyth Matthew 71 Aysgarth 9d 842

but it would make birth date 1841 and not 1831, so ?

Where was the workhouse?
and have you found him on 1911 census?

the work house was in hawes and in 1861 matthew became governor he left the work house in 1871, but then later returned and it says he became guardian at the aysgarth union workhouse, i have found him on the 1891 census but nothing after that, i found his wife on the 1901 census says she is widow, but on the article i found on google it says he was still on the board of gaurdians in 1907??

I understand that you want to find out info about the 'Blythe' family and it can be so consuming that you get carried away.

But it's really not fair to the helpers on here to keep posting threads about the same people/family

There was lots of info on the other threads and now Catherine has spent her time repeating it for you

You have indeed as Julie states deleted the other threads but you missed this one http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.asp?wci=thread&tk=1200678

I hate to refer to T&C but it is NOT allowed to post more than one thread about the same people

Ginny

And I thought all the Blythe threads had been deleted!

Yes Melody, I'm always happy thank you. Just as you have been happy to receive my help in the past

Good luck

Ginny

i would also like to find out when william blythe passed away any help would be greatly appricated.x

This is the only one I could find:-

Marriages Jun 1908 (>99%)
xxxx BLYTHE William Burnley 8e 415
COATES Percival Denham Burnley 8e 415
xxxx DIXON Lily Burnley 8e 415
Walmsley Edith Burnley 8e 415

children that would go with this couple:-

Blythe Elizabeth Dixon Burnley 8e 235

Births Mar 1910 (>99%)
BLYTHE Nora Burnley 8e 194

so there's Nellie, John, Elizabeth and Nora.
No Richard but there is a William D. Blythe?

Possible death:-

Name: William Blythe
Death Registration Month/Year: 1958
Age at death (estimated): 73
Registration district: Burnley
Inferred County: Lancashire
Volume: 10b
Page: 930

makes date of birth 1885 but the only way to be sure it's him is to buy the cert.

thanks catherine i might have got the childs name richard wrong i was told his name was dick which i fort was short for richard, but it could be william dick blythe? am told that elizabeth blythe married someone called alan but dont know surname they were apparently mayor and mayoress of burnley at some point is there any chance you can find a marriage for them please?

Possible marriage for Elizabeth, only one I can find in Burnley:-

Name: Elizabeth Blythe
Spouse Surname: Bailey
Date of Registration: Jan-Feb-Mar 1952
Registration district: Burnley
Registration county (inferred): Lancashire
Volume Number: 10b
Page Number: 1646

Spouse:- Frank A Bailey

name is Frank but middle name could be Alan?

This could possibly be the death you want:-

Deaths Jun 1869 (>99%)
Blythe Richard 70 Aysgarth 9d 373
Aysgarth is the reg.dist.for Hawes.

2 possible for John Blythe so all depends on how old he would have been at the time of death to which is the correct one:-

Deaths Mar 1921 (>99%)
Blythe John (70) Burnley 8e 264

Deaths Sep 1921 (>99%)
Blythe John (54) Burnley 8e 211

all these can be found on "freebmd.org.uk"

Catherine
