Hi Siobhan
You are looking rather busy. I wondered if you could look up a marriage for James Lord born around 1814 in Lancashire to an Ann born around 1827. We think the marriage is from 1847-49 in the Halifax region.

Thanks so much for this!

Dear Siobhan, thanks for your kind offer. I am seeking dates for the marriages of my mothers great grandparents and gg grandparents. The first pair are Daniel Warren (born c1781) and Sarah ? (born1786) probably pre 1816 in the Great Linford/Stony Stratford area of Bucks. Also their son George Warren (born c1831) married Zilpah ? (born c1828) probably between 1851 and 1855 at Newport Pagnell Bucks. I'd love to know the wives surnames too and anything in the line of dates of their deaths if it isn't too much to ask. Hope they're not too much hassel, thanks again. Susan

hi siobhan

thanks for the offer. if it's not too much trouble could you please check the 1861 census and see if you could find some info about

JOSEPH DUNN, born c.1794 in houghton le spring, county durham.

i have information, from the 1851 census, that he was a stonemason. he died in 1862.

his two youngest children, william (born 1840) and thomas arthur (born 1842) weren't yet married, so there is a possibility that they may be on the census with him too. they were both born in easington, county durham.

thanks for any help.
