Hello, I wondered if anyone happened to have a copy of the parish records for Sigglesthorne? I would appreciate a look up.
Thank you and best wishes,
Belen

If no one has them, you could contact the Beverley Treasure House and they will search for you.

Thanks for your reply. I must admit that I thought it was a long shot but that I may have been lucky.
Best wishes,

Coming very late to this, so maybe you've already dealt with your problem. I have access to Sigglesthorne BTs - one branch of my family lived there in the 18th century. If I can help, let me know.

Hello Joyce,
Thank you for your reply. Sorry about the delay in getting back to you, but I have been away.
I would be grateful with some help with my COLTMAN family. I have some births and marriages from the IGI but would like to know if their is any other information, such as witnesses at marriages, deaths, or if there is anybody I have missed.
This is the Sigglesthorne information that I have.
Elizabeth Coltman m. Thomas Dennis 6/3/1742. I don't know if she was also baptised there as the IGI doesn't go back that far.
Also (her brother?) John Coltman m. Sarah Beadall 3/12/1737.
I have 4 children for John and Sarah.
Francis Coltman b. 3/2/1739
Henry (Harry) Coltman b. 26/6/1743
Ann Coltman b. 30/3/1746 (Ann Coltman m. John Snow 28/8/1769)
John Coltman b 27/8/1748
Any more information would be much appreciated.
Thank you and best wishes,
Belen

I will have a look for you. I won't be able to do it till the middle of next week, though. If I remember right, the BTs for Sigglesthorne are mostly legible around the dates you're interested in.
I'm also planning a visit to the London Family History Centre, where they also have Sigglesthorne records, including, I think, the actual PRs and the parish book. That probably won't be until the week after next.

Hi Joyce,
Thank you so much for offering to help me. My main interest is Henry Coltman, but he moved away from Sigglesthorne and his children were baptised in other parishes. If there is anything concerning his parents and sibblings, I would really like to have it.
No rush - I think family history is that sort of hobby! I think it must be very interesting to see the actual parish records.
Thank you and best wishes,
Belen

I've had a look through the Sigglesthorne BTs this morning. I'll write up my notes and send them to you by a PM, if possible.
I worked from 1700 to the 1790s. Some of the pages are very difficult to read - they seem to have suffered water damage or something similar - so I can't swear I've picked everything up. There are a couple of entries for a Henry Coultman early, then the John Coltman you have, with more children to his name. He was living at Catfoss when he married - doesn't help, it's part of the parish. They seem to vanish after a while and there is no grave under Coltman or Coultman extant at Sigglesthorne. (There are early graves there, including that of my own 6 x great grandfather, who died in 1761).
The Snows continued to live there and I found their grave in the MIs.
You might want to take a look at East Riding archives - I searched the online catalogue for John Coltman and came up with something from 1769, referring to a John and Henry (his brother, I assume) Coltman were at Meaux.
Let's hope the PRs are a bit easier to read, though I would lay bets on it.
More detail anon.

Hello Listers
Ref Sigglesthorne
Looking for any information on Richard Stephenson who married in Sigglesthorne Yks in 1766 to a Mary Brown.
A burial there would be likely? (prob 1769-1820)
He could have been born there too?(1720-1748)
The family also had later connections to Beeford and Routh
Any help would be great.
Thanks
