Laysley could be Tarpley, which could be an enumerator not understanding Tarporley in a different dialect?
There are not 2 y's in the word, as the second has a loop, and the first is straight down.

thaks for finding the death of amelia in 1847. As I am relatively inexperienced in this geneology business can you advise as to how I go about seeing more of this record. Can I obtain a death certificate for this record and will it tell me who the husband was?

The death certificate will not say automatically who the husband was. It will have an informant, who might be the husband.
You have to apply for the certificate, follow the instructions through the free bmd site.

You can go straight here to order too:

(I keep the link handy to hand out.)

One way or another you might be able to confirm that it's the right Amelia -- the informant could be a son or a child, the address, something that indicates her age.

Marriage certificates didn't always say when the father was deceased. We might imagine somebody being asked "father's occupation?" and just giving it. Why didn't you say he was deceased? Nobody asked me. ;)

Can anyone help? I have a John Edwin Ball born 1839/40 in Tarvin. I have downloaded the entry from the 1851 census which on the individual record shows him living in oscroft cheshire. However the household census I downloaded just shows numbers of individual records and no names. I am trying to establish who he was living with.

Can anyone help me in finding the birth date and place of Samuel Ball born 1832/33 son of Samuel and Amelia as shown in the above 1841 census?

Also the marriage date and place of Samuel and Amelia.

on familysearch there is a Samuel Ball who married an Amelia Corrant in 1822 in Chester

That record is submitted though so be careful.

it is also on the pilot site where the reputed source is Cheshire parish registers

http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/

Could anyone help me find out more about Amelia Corrant who married Samuel Ball in 1822.

I would like to find out who her parents were.

Also does anyone know where the St Oswald church is where they married

Could you just post the information about Amelia's marriage, so we can see what it said?
There are several St Oswald's on google searches - have you looked?
Thanks

from information on free bmd:
Chester, St. Oswald (C of E), Queen Street. An ancient parish church, originally serving the townships of Bache, Blacon cum Crabwall (part), Churton Heath, Croughton, Great Boughton, Huntington, Iddinshall, Lea Newbold, Newton by Chester, Saighton, Upton by Chester (part), Wervin, and part of the city of Chester. Closed in 1881 and replaced as the parish church by St.Thomas of Canterbury, Parkgate Street. Registers of Baptisms 1581–1945, Marriages 1581–1969 and Burials 1581–1854 have been deposited at the Cheshire Record Office.

Yes this is the correct Amelia. However I can find no other record of her ie. birthdate, parents etc.

Could you help regarding these?

Thanks

Ian

as it says:
Marriages 1581–1969 and Burials 1581–1854 have been deposited at the Cheshire Record Office.

It is some while since I reviewed this line, but would like to try again if anyone can help.

I am trying to find birth/christening details for Samuel Ball born in Delamere, Cheshire in 1832/1833. I believe his parents were Samuel and Amelia. In the 1841 census he is shown in the civil parish of Christleton living with his parents and brothers William and John, although the surname is showing as Bull. In 1846 a sister was born Martha. I can find birth records for John and Martha but not Samuel. By 1851 his parents had died and I can find no trace of Samuel in the 1851 census. He married Elizabeth Hankinson in 1855.

Can anyone find any birth/christening details or point me in the right direction.

Kind Regards

Ian

Posting this as a possibility because of how it sounds and also because there is a baptism for a William Ball in Tarporley in 1829 with the same parents.

Samuel Baugh's baptism is also in the England & Wales Christening Records, 1530-1906 on Ancestry, but I don't have access. Perhaps it would give his father's occupation for cross reference?

Not sure if this is of help or confusing the issue.

Samuel Baugh
Birth about 1812 in Sutton, Cheshire, England

If he is the father of Samuel 1833 it may be interesting to note that Samuel (1812)'s parents married in St Oswalds.
