Hi,

Welcome to RootsChat!

Using IGI I found the christening of George Dannit, 6 March 1756 at Nettleton, Lincs.  He was the son of Peter and Margaret.

Could this be your man?

Hi john,  welcome to Rootschat, I cant seem to find either on the 41 census, they may both be deceased by then, do you have any other information on them.

Hi Patrish. George & Sarah both may have been buried at Claxby by Normanby. George 1835 and Sarah 1821 but I am not sure if it is the right people.
I know they had 3 children.
Wm. Dannat born 1787 at Claxby near Market Rasen..died  1794
Eliz. Dannat    "     1800 "       "        "          "         "
George Dannatt "  1804 "       "                                        "    1874 South Owersby Lincs.
I know George the son was married twice. first time to Alice Dixon 1828 then to Mary Ogg 1851. This was Mary Ogg's 3rd marriage.
I just cannot find anything out about George senior & Sarah.

For births,marriages and deaths before 1837, when civil registration began, you will have to check back in parish registers. The record of  George's marriage to Sarah might show his father; I've not had the chance to check parish registers for my family yet....they are all too far away!

Thanks Patrish. I am sure the 1841 census details are correct. This is the family of George & Sarah's son George born Claxby 1804.

I do not understand the connections you give about the christening of the 2 John Dannats I am looking for George (senior) details if any.

Thanks also for the information about Sarah Faunthrop it has just confirmed what a lady from Lincoln has just sent me. She is researching the Fanthorpe family tree.

Hello?  is there anybody out there?  just hoping that someone is still watching this, I am researching my sons mother's side of his tree and all indicators are pointing that the guy Fanthorpe I am looking for at the moment is a brother of the sarah faunthrop you speak of. 

Do you know if she had any brothers?

 if so did one of them have a son called charles fanthorpe born circa 1798 North Witham (possibly mispelt) and married a mary b. 1804 Louth?

James Fanthorpe married a Mary ? they had 2 children.........Charles b 1797,  Sarah b 1800

That is all I know about the Fanthorpes because my main interest is the Dannatts. I hope I have been of help.
