Could some-one please look up William and his family in 1871
He was born in Retford, Notts in 1793 and died c 1875 and he married a lady called Martha, I cannot find a marriage for them either so I don't know her maiden name.
Thanks for any help.
Teresa. :-)

Teresa, Wendy has a thread offering to do lookups in Nottinghamshire parish records and you might want to ask her about the William Hurst + Martha marriage, for instance:

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/ancestors/thread/1266434

If you post there, please give her the url for this thread:

http://www.genesreunited.co.uk/boards.page/board/ancestors/thread/1267982

and mention in this thread that you have done that, so nobody is duplicating efforts.

On second thought, I've posted the link to this thread in Wendy's thread so she can come have a look ;)

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

Sarah Wilson Hurst, 30 May 1830, parents William Hurst and Martha

edit - also

Thomas Hurst, 20 Oct 1822
John Hurst, 31 Oct 1819 (as per Mary's question above)
- father William Bingham Hurst


Might be worth considering Wilson as Martha's surname.

Hi Jansmith.
Thanks very much for these two census.
I will have to have a good look at everything and sort it out.
Think I've got it worked out now.

Children Sarah and Edward in the 1841 census jan posted perfectly match the baptisms I posted earlier, 1825 and 1830.

So if the 1841 household is the right people, that makes him William Bingham Hurst, and the daughter is Sarah Wilson Hurst.


You said he died c1875, but his actual death record is easily found:

Deaths Mar 1875
HURST William Bingham 80 E. Retford 7b 9

... so maybe you knew his full name ...

Teresa Report 14 May 2011 21:14

Hi Janey.
I didn't know for sure about William as some records give William and some William B and some William Bingham. I didn't know enough about him and have been going on what some-one passed on to me, that is why I have been checking everything.
Thanks for your help.
