What years are covered at english origins? I'm looking for abirth of John William Hewitt/Hewett Wolvey, Warickshire area around 1849-1850

Vanessa

Vanessa Report 10 Oct 2003 12:37

Up to 1850 but mainly just marriages and wills. Best to go on to the site yourself and have a (free) search and if you find anything which might be relevant I can use my credits to view the records available.

Marcia, sorry, viewed the records for four licence allegations but nothing with the right names...and nothing at all on Boyd's, but I don't think that covers Warwickshire anyway. Not sure how useful English Origins is!

Debbi, sorry, I did look and found nothing although I wasn't hopeful as the records only go up to 1850. I increasingly feel that this site is of very limited value.

Hi Vanessa, What a kind offer. Could you look for a marriage of a William or Charles Weir to an Elizabeth, probably in the London area. I checked with English origins and for Charles there were 6 Vicar Generals etc and for William there were 6 Vicar Generals, 1 Faculty etc 1701 to 1850 and 1 Boyds Marriage index. Thanks in anticipation. Diana.

Hi Vanessa If you have any credits left, I would be most grateful if you could look up the name FRASI. I have checked on the site, and there would appear to be 6 records relating to this name. Fingers crossed! Thanks Janet

Hi Janet, these are the six records. Hope you can make sense of them!

Hi Eileen, unfortunately William Browne brings up nearly 600 records just between 1810 and 1840 (you can't view them individually) which is hundreds more than my remaining credits. Really sorry I can't help.

Vanessa, I wish I'd seen your kind offer before buying a stock of credits for English Origins. Like you, I'm not sure how useful it is... it certainly didn't come up with anything remotely useful to me - and I've still got a load of spare credits. If anyone wants me to search on their behalf, I'd be happy to have a go...

Vanessa

Vanessa Report 11 Oct 2003 15:38

Sorry Shirley....no records at all unlike Eileen's 600! But in any case the records are mainly marriages and wills. Very sorry I couldn't help.

Vanessa

Vanessa Report 11 Oct 2003 15:43

Yes, I agree, Linda. Definitely wouldn't pay to use it again. I just hope I can come up with some info for someone here to make it at all worthwhile. No conspicuous success yet!

Hi Vanessa, Please would you look for a marriage between Sainthill Lindsey, (possibly St.Hill Lindsey) to Elizabeth, in the London area. They had a son, Arthur, born in 1813, as a sort of clue for dates. Will be lovely if you find a maiden name for her. There is another Sainthill Lindsey,(how unusual does a name have to be lol!) who also married an Elizabeth-, but they were based in the Bradninch area of Devon, and are a snare and a delusion for my London ones!. And thankyou so much for offering to look. Rosi
