Find Ancestors

I have been sent this CD by mistake and am wondering wether to keep it. So it depends how many requests for look up's I receive. Bear with me, will give until the weekend before I break the seal.

Hi Sally, If it covers the area around York (not sure if this would be North Riding) could you look for my Scholefield/Scholfields please. Benjamin and Ann ages c.80 if still alive Michael and Elizabeth ages c.58 - 60 Possibly Sherburn in Elmet or Fulford or surrounding area Robert aged 27 ) William aged 25 ) All born Fulford Daniel aged 23 ) Ann aged 21 ) Many thanks Rose

LINDA and ROSE, Sorry just looked at it again and it is West not East. Sorry if I got your hopes up.

Hi Sally, Is the disc part of the census. Would it contain the pages for Sheffield? If you decide to break the seal I would appreciate the image of the following ref number 2337, 373B which is South St. Sheffield. I am looking for the image of the BINNS family if you can manage it. BUT I have the names of all the family members so I wouldn't want you to open it specially for me!! I am interesting in having a look at the image to check the birthplace of Jemima, the mother of the family, which I have as Rowson. Sally, thanks but this lookup is no longer needed. Thanks to Marian and Russell for their very kind help. Sally, I have emailed you directly. Good luck to all. Many thanks. Kathy

I will write down Binns family and any more requests I get and look on Sunday.

Hi Sally, If the census covers Saddleworth, please could you see if you can find anything on the following: Betty Walker around 37 years of age living at Stockport Rd Saddleworth. Her husband was called John and had a son called William born around 1850. Many thanks Lindsay

Any info on the family name Wikeley, would be much appreciated

For KATHLEEN BINNS: On the index for Sheffield 1861 census Jemima is born in RAWSON, Derbyshire (but it could be a mistranscription). Marian

Hi Sally If it covers Wakefield could you please look for John Wigglesworth age 38, Born Wakefield. He should be living with his wife Ann, age 32. There should also be Henry wigglesworth age 6 living with them. Thank You Gem

Hi Sally, If it covers Halifax and Todmorden would you look to see if you can see a Henry Wilcock born about 1814 in Todmorden. He may still be in that area or he could be in Sowerby which is near Halifax. Thanks . Tracey. PS GO ON, CRACK IT OPEN!!

Hi Sally, I am looking for any info on my Great Great Grandmother, Her name was Elizabeth Rushforth and she was born in Barnsley in 1833. She was the daughter of John and Hannah. Hannah was born in Pontefract. If you can find anything about them I would be grateful. Jim

Sally could you look for James WAKEFIELD born Knottingley....born about 1835-40. many thanks Sue

Hi, If you do decide to break the seal could you please look up WALTON BOTTOMLEY and family. He would have been born c1844 in Halifax. Regards. Janet

GERALD, MARIAN, GEMMA, TRACEY,PAULA, ALEXANDER, JIM, SUE and JANET, How could I dissapoint all of you I will break seal later today and start searching there are about ll cds so bear with me. Sally.

Sally, You don't have to do this just for us you know. Don't forget at the end of the day you're the one whos paying for this CD and if there's nothing on there for you... Anyway, if i can help you in any way i'll try my best and thanks for the offer which ever decision you make. Tracey

Hi Sally Thank you for your generous offer. If you do break the seal would you please look for Joseph Cordingley living in the Bradford area. He was born Shipley in 1828/29 so he would be about 22/23. He was a plasterer by trade. I know he wasn't livimg with his wife and children at the time I have found them livimg with her father in 1851 and by 1861 Joseph is living with them. Thank you again for your generous offer. Kindest regards Ann

Hi Sally, If you do take the plunge, I would appreciate a lookup please, for the marriage of William Binns to Fanny, born abt 1853. William born Auckley, Doncaster (Auckley spelt many ways) abt 1851. The first of their children I know of was Tom Binns born 1871. William was an agricultural labourer and I am looking for his wife's maiden name if possible. Thank you very much in advance for any help you can give. And thanks once aain for your kind offer. Jenny

JENNIFER and ANN Have yours on my list I have broken the seal and will probably answer all your requests on new thread. Later in the day. Sally.

Hi Sally..........If your disc covers Sheffield, could you look up the family and address of Charles Henry Beaumont, who would have been a small child at that time, although I am not sure of his D.O.B. Would be very grateful...........Frances

If your not sure which "Riding" a place is in go here http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/eng/YKS/Misc/Where/index.html Find your place in the box and it will show W, N or E Riding. A is for York the County capital which is not part of any Riding so may or may not be on any disk. Bob
