Title: confused???
Post by: julles on Sunday 03 April 05 18:16 BST (UK)

HI,
I GOT THE CERTIFICATE FOR MY GT,GRANDAD AND HIS MOTHER WAS SARAH PARKER. THERE ARE ONLY TWO APPROPRIATE WEDDINGS IN THIS TIME FRAME TO A THOMAS H.

ONE IS A SARAH ANN PARKER.  HOWEVER WHEN I GO TO THE CENSUS THEY HAVE A CHILD NAMED DAVID BORN IN 1967 NOT HARRY AS WAS MY GT GRANDFATHERS NAME.

THERE IS A SINGLE NAME SITE FOR MY NAME,AND THOMAS MY GT,GT GRANDFATHER IS LISTED AS MARRYING A SARAH HEMINGWAY(SHE IS THE ONLY OTHER TIME FRAME MARRIAGE)
ALL THE OTHER INFO IS CORRECT.
I HAVE SEARCHED AND I CANNOT FIND ANOTHER SARAH PARKER/THOMAS HEALD MARRIAGE.  HARRY WAS BORN IN 1867
AND HE HAD AN OLDER SISTER BORN IN 1864.
I AM COMPLETELY MYSTIFIED.
I WOULD BE REALLY GRATEFUL IF ANYONE COULD GET ME GOING AGAIN, AS I HAVE EXHAUSTED ALL MY AVENUES.

VERY BEST REGARDS
JULLES

HI,HEATHER B,LACIE & JOE,
I LOVE YOU ALL MANY THANKS.  I HAVE BEEN SO STUCK..I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT THAT THE MILLWRIGHT ST THOMAS WAS MINE..BUT HIS WIFE IS SARAH HEMINGWAY.

HARRY WAS BORN AT #15 SAINT STREET. HIS MOTHER NEVER GAVE A MIDDLE NAME ON HIS BIRTH CERTIFICATE.

YOUR HELP HAS PUT ME BACK IN THE SADDLE I AM SO GRATEFUL...STRANGE THAT BOTH HARRY`S HAVE A SISTER NAMED REBBECCA.

I WONDER WHY I CAN`T FIND A MARRIAGE ANYWHERE???
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HARRY GREW UP TO HAVE 11 CHILDREN.THANKS AGAIN
BEST REGARDS

HI JOE,HEATHER B & LACIE,

I AM SO GRATEFUL FOR YOUR HELP AND TIME A BIG THANK YOU ALL.
I ORIGINALLY BELIEVED THAT THOMAS OF MILLWRIGHT ST WAS MY THOMAS.  HOWEVER HIS WIFE IS SARAH HEMINGWAY.

THE OTHER IS THOMAS MARRYING SARAH ANN  PARKER AT ST PETERS LEEDS.  BECAUSE HARRY`S BIRTH CERTIFICATE NEVER MENTIONED A MOTHERS MIDDLE NAME I COULD NOT TIE THEM TOGETHER.

HARRY WAS BORN AT #15 SAINT STREET, SO THIS IS ANOTHER LINK IN.  I AM SO HAPPY TO BE BACK IN THE GAME.

A GREAT BIG THANK YOU
JULLES
