Hi Ann, Thank you (both?) for looking. I do realise that you have a fair number of lookups to do, but would love to take you up on the offer of checking further. At some time.....obviously no hurry...could you look for the Whyatt/Parr marriage pre 1854 - just an extra yr or two - and the other quarters of 1856 (you very kindly did mar 1856) - just to make sure that the marriage wasn't a last minute rush on the parents part!! Many thanks, karen

Many thanks Ann, you are a braver woman than me taking all that on.

Ann You can cancel my request for my Samuel Hawkridge. I've found him! June 1841 so he WAS telling porkies about his age! Lou xx

Lucia, Doh! I forgot to type it in! It was Dec 1846. Regards Ann

Thank you so much for looking up!! I really appreciate your help. Could you give me the date for the Matilda Lucas birth? Thank you so much, Lucia :-)

Hi Heather, Only had chance to look up the first marriage, and no result will try years there about next time. We checked all of 1857 and 1858 Regards Ann

Hi Lou, Still no joy on Samuel Hawkridge, checked Mar 1841-Dec 1843. Want me to try 1837-1840 next week? Regards Ann

Hi Lucia, Mar 1838, Ann Wiseman, Luton, 6, 101 Most likely one for Matilda is: Matilda Lucas, Rotherhithe, IV, 424 we found quite a few of the name but that was the only one in Rotherhithe from Jun 1844 to Dec 1848. Didn't look up Mary Kate Evans, so that's one for the next week list Regards Ann

Anne what a kind offer. I can't find a birth place for Charles Edward Bayliss He was born in 1866 and died in 1935. He was in the Army in India. Thankyou Teresa

Hi Karen, We checked Mar 1854 till Mar 1856 for you but did not find marriage of Louisa Whyatt to John Parr. Can try earlier or later next time if you would like. Regards Ann

Hi Sarah M, The most likely we found for the marriage of Robert and Harriet was: June 1854, Holywell, 11b, 544. There were other marriages in the years that we checked for this name, but not in the areas you mentioned, but if you would like the others then let me know and I will send them on to you. Regards Ann

Sorry guys didn't get as much done as I wanted to, but will hopefully get some more done next week. Regards Ann

Hi Ann, thank you for the offer if you have time, im interested in the birth of a james mccue circa 1852 reported to be in halifax york, I have tried looking on 1837 with no luck thank you jackie

Hi, Still planning on going tomorrow, not sure that I will be able to get them all done, nnut hoping to be able to do a few visits over the coming weeks :) Regards Ann

you're marvellous!!!!!! if you could can you look up marriage of harold william knight born 15th jan 1901 to ivy violet beatrice petitt born 5th july 1905. their first child was born in 1926 so i asssume they got married somewhere around 1925 possibly. they were probably married in maldon essex. also any info on the birth of harold would be much appreiciated. thank you so much for your kind offer and i hope you can help, good luck with your own search

Ann, I have a couple of requests if you are able. Birth of William Hughes, approx 1847 in Wirswall, Cheshire. I believe this was in the registration district of Nantwich at this time. Marriage of Thomas Taplin/Tappin and Ann Harris in the reg. dist. of Shipston, Worcestershire (now part of Warwickshire), somewhere between 1851/58. No worries if you can't. Thanks! Kate.

Hi, such a kind offer - you will be there for weeks! I wonder if you could look up the marriage of James William Hanson to Mary Ann Wyles please? Going on kids ages should be about 1857-58 and probably in Shoreditch (thats where the kids were born anyway, 22 Curtain Street, St Leonards). Also if you have time (!!!) poor old Mary Ann is usurped in the family by 1864 so I am guessing at a death for her between 1861-4. Even more cheekily - can you see if James Hanson remarries to Phoebe Pearce about 1864 please. Many thanks, will understand if not poss.

Hello Ann, Our brick wall is finding a birth for HALLIBURTON ARMSTRONG. In censuses and marriage and death certs, he is variously born from 1840 to 1846 (what an old fibber he was). The only consistency is his birthplace which was either noted as Hexham, Northumberland or the neighbouring village of Dilston. If you have too much to to do already, don't worry Ann. Good hunting yourself, and hope the one-name study goes well, Gordon

Ann I've just discovered that my Samuel Hawkridge was christened 31st December 1843 so CAN'T have been born in 1845. At some point is there any chance you could have a look at 1842 and 1843 for me? Many thanks Lou xx

Hi, I am looking for: Ann Wiseman, born 1838 in Luton. Mary Kate Evans, born 1864 approx in Luton. Matilda Lucas, born 1844 - 1848 in Rotherhithe (most likely 1846 or 1847) Thank you so much for your help, Lucia :-)
