David,

I gather that you are not near the Suffolk Records Office but if you could get to London and the Society of Genealogists you could search there as Suffolk is particularly well served: they seem to have copy of the bishops' transcripts for every parish in the county. The cost of a day/half-day at the SoG is going to be less than the likely charge at the CRO.

linda
yes you are correct i was trying to find her before she was married
now i have the parish st mary stoke ipswich where she was bap
maybe i can trace her parents from that even if only the fathers name ie reg
thanks i will also do that as well
david

I assumed that you would have found her on the censuses after she was married, especially as it came up immediately.
I thought that you wanted to know where she was before she married.

Have you noticed on that 1851 census, that s someone has made a correction to the name of the visitor. If you click on the correction, you can email the person who sent in the correction, it may be worth doing that as someone else has been looking at this family

reggie
i think you have found her

david

linda

she was born in ipswich 1823 /24
when she marriedthey were living at vernon street ipswich

thanks anyway linda
if the records office have success
i will post it on here to let you all know she & her dad have been found

You must have her on a census after she was married, where and when does it say she was born??Where was she living when she got married?

presumably
Charlotte Gowing
Year of Registration: 1845
Quarter of Registration: Oct-Nov-Dec
District: Ipswich
County: Suffolk
Volume: 12
Page: 737

but there are only two men transcribed on the page, so what was her husbands name?

thank you all for your preserverance
& all your info &
its doing my head in
i will phone suffolk records office ask them to search for them £ 25 an hour but should be worth it
thank you all
david

Oh well another theory bites the dust, that 1841 image is clearly Garrod and her father was an ag lab called Henry

Eh?
No I was discounting the second one in Mickfield because he was a farmer, but suggesting that

13 Jun 1838 David GOWING 61 Suffolk Winston, St Andrew
could be him

There are three Charlottes in Winston in 1841
Charlotte Garrod abt 1821 Suffolk, England Winston, Suffolk
View Record

Charlotte Pettit abt 1816 Suffolk, England Winston, Suffolk
View Record

Charlotte Plowman abt 1835 Suffolk, England Winston, Suffolk

just off to look at the first image

reggie
possible i suppose
i hope i dont get many like this again on my tree
it does your head in
david

linda
no you are correct david gowing {occ farmer ] is not her father unless her father misled the regisrar saying he was silversmith
instead of fafmer
so no thats not him
and the second one has no charlotte with them
thanks anyway
david

There doesn't seem to be any relevant baptisms or marriages in that batch, but a closer look at those parish records may be worth while

jill
she was married in1845
i cant find her with her parents
david

On the NBI discs there are only two david Gowings in Suffolk

burial dates
13 Jun 1838 David GOWING 61 Suffolk Winston, St Andrew
9 Aug 1869 David GOWING 78 Suffolk Mickfield, St Mary & St Lambert

the second chap is this one who appears on the censuses from 1841 to 1861 in Mickfiled, but he is a farmer, so presumably can be counted out

so I wonder if the other one could be the elusive father you need. annoyingly he died just before the census.

The Hugh Wallis batch numbers give the following as available on the IGI
Winston
C132191 ** 1865-1875 M131612 -1817
