Joanne You are quite right, sorry. There is no marriage listed with Sarah Parkes, a few Sarahs but the wrong surname. Sorry Penny |

Penny, Thank you for looking up John Abbott. Sorry for the delay in replying as I have been at work all day. I do not think it is my one as they were married between 1866 and 1869. Daughter Ada born 1870 Lambeth. Shirley |

Desperately looking for Richard Hurrell b 1825-1829 in Stapleford Abbotts, Essex. Think father may be Samuel. Should be so grateful if you could look for Samuel's marriage probably round 1812-1820 in Essex. Many thanks |

Brian Only five Alfred Flemings on the CD and none for the right date or place. Sorry. Have you checked the York BMD website? I'll have a look for you and see if there are any possibilities. How's this? Alfred Fleming born 1850 Holbech Leeds HOLB/18B/340 yorkshirebmd.uk.org - it's a brilliant site, in fact a lot of my family came from Holbech. You can print off an order form with all the details on, post it to them and it only costs £7.00. I tried 1849 and 1851 but that was the only Alfred - worth a go! Penny |

Penny Thanks muchly ,I'd got that Alfred at Holbeck...it's near to Churwell, but I can't double check if he's the right one..Maybe if I had 1861(age 10) census..it would show his Mum /Dad. Thanks so much 4 your help ,you're a glutton 4 work.LAK Bry |

Hi Rosemary Nothing on your Waltons I'm afraid. These are the christening/marriage records from the churches (if you're lucky) so only the bare essentials will be recorded on the disks. I someone strikes lucky further details can be obtained from the church itself. Good luck with your digging & delving, you'll get there in the end! Penny |
