Title: Elizabeth Biggs Pre 1822 Low Moor Bfd.
Post by: suentimb on Monday 21 June 10 16:15 BST (UK)

Hi all..
If anyone has easy access to the parish records in Bradford either Parish Church or anywhere could you have a quick look for Elizabeth Biggs born circa 1805 possibly in the Low Moor area.
She married William Bickerdike 14th April 1822 in the Parish Church. I have been unable to find any baptisms for either Elizabeth or William though the marriage entry in the record states 'of this parish'
I have tried Family Search but other than the marriage there are no hits so can anyone help?

I must have been lucky with my reply, got one within 48hrs.

(Did you realise Bickerdike named people over in Harewood Leeds (early dates)?

I was able to pudh my Bickerdikes habitation of Brayshaw Fold back to 1837 meaning there were Bickerdikes there over 60 years ..

Regarding the family records, SBLHA have only got back to 1835.
A quick e mail should get you the results your wanting.
