Hi Robin I am trying to find out about a marriage between a William gray and Ann ? from Church Anston Notts. The marriage took place here in Church Anston. William was born abt 1806 in Winterton so i guess the marriage took place about 1826. Do your records go back this far. Thanks for any help Jane

The marriage does not show on the Indexes.but where is Church Anston. The only one I know of near Notts is North and South Anston in WRY

Hi Robin I am trying to find marriage of Frances helen Thornton and George Shirley,(My Grandparents) Frances was single in 1901 living in Carlton Notts but then I found her in Beeston 1905 there was a big Shirley family lived in Beeston at same time .I have george shirley deceased on my parents marriage cert( 1940) it also states he was a doctor of medicine ,also Frances death cert (1956)gives ? Shirley ships doctor I have really come to a dead end with this but maybe you can find something I cannot. Many Thanks Madeline

Madeline The marriage is not on Free BMD and my indexes are mostly pre 1901. If you know the approximate date and area, you should find it on 1837 online. Do you know how old George was on death? as there is a possible born in Long Eaton. about 1887. I cannot find any Christenings in Notts. Do you know who Frances is with in 1901?

Hi Robin I was wondering if you could find a Beatrice Day, all I know that on the 1901 census it says she was born Notts and int the 1891 census it says Hook Hampshire, so I am really not sure I cant find her on 1837 anywhere oh the year of birth was about 1889. Thank you Debbie

Debra The only one listed is a christening of Beatrice Day 31.5.1885 at Gedling, Parents David and Susannah

Hi Robin Thanks for that, I forgot to say the parents names were Charles and Jane. Thanks for looking Debbie

hi robin, could you find my great aunt, gertrude timson. she was in service in nottm 1891 but cant find her in 1901, hope you can help linda

Linda She is not on the Marriage Index. I assume the 22 year old on the 1901 Census in Nottm is not your lady?

Hi Robin Thanks for looking for William and Ann Gray. I don't know where Church Anston is. Iwonder if i have misunderstood what was written and i should have read it as in Church in Anston???. Oh well thanks for your help Jane

Hiya, I'm looking for a Henry Jackson according to the 1881 census he was born in Beeston Notts. He was born around 1830ish, would like to know rest of family if poss! Dawn

hi robin please could you see if you can find anything on the surnames CUTTS and THORPE for me. they lived in elston notts joseph cutts and sarah thorpe got married in 1836 in elston youve helped hubby so much in the past so dont worry if you cant find anything susie

hi robin, according to the records gertrude would be 24 in 1901. it is close in age, do you think there could have been some mix up in the dates. thanks. linda

Dawn, You will need to look at these carefully. The spellings are as written. Christenings North Clifton Robert Wm. 7.12.1850 Henry/Anne Jackson Joseph 29.8.1852 Henry/Hannah George 2.2.1856 dit John Stanely 11.8.1861 dit Marriage at North Clifton 7.2.1850 Henry Jackson/Hannah Staveley This surname fits with your 1881 Census. 1861 Census Piece 2476 Folio 117 18 Silver Street. North Clifton Henry Jackson 31 Joiner b Beeston Hannah 34 b North Clifton Sarah Ann 3 b dit North Clifton is only 2 Folios at that time. I cannot find the family in that village in 1871. Henrys christening is not listed and I cannot find him in Beeston 1841. I will do some more checks later.

Linda I never bank on an age in any census, only Certificates. The Gertrude I mentioned is the only one listed so I would have a look at her. I did not check where she was or who she was with.
