Timescale??
Title: Re: Oakham marriage look up Please
Post by: DDRAIG on Monday 13 February 12 15:39 GMT (UK)
Between 1840 - 1846
Title: Re: Okham marriage look up Please
Post by: CaroleW on Monday 13 February 12 15:49 GMT (UK)
Are you sure about those dates

1841 census shows eldest child aged 6 so any marriage would be pre- civil registration

Also - Ann is shows as not born in county so they may possibly have married elsewhere (1851 shows Leics)

Did you get her maiden name from one of the childrens birth certs

There is this tree on Family Search which relates to their daughter Ann aged 2 in 1841

It shows her mothers maiden name as Pearson

What is given as William's occupation on the certificate and in the census?

From a magazine cover disk containing Oakham Baptisms (1813-1837), a couple that may be of interest -

3 Apr 1836, Elizabeth Stimson,  d/o William/Anne, abode Oakham, Occ Baker, notes aged 14 mths & 2 weeks

8 Jan 1837, Emma Stimson,  d/o William/Anne, abode Oakham, Occ Baker

Nothing for Stimpson, and marriages only go up to 1812 so too early

I think we are looking at 2 different Families here!

Thomas STIMPSON is in Wales in 1881, born c 1846, Whisentide, Rutland.

Thomas is easy to find 1871/1881 in Wales, 1871 under Stimson born c 1848, Rutland.

1861 Census he is not with possible Parents in Glamorgan, Wales;
William born c 1815, Whissendine, Ruttland
Ann born c 1815, no POB shown
RG9/4041/56/5

Trees have Ann born c 1812, Nth Luffenham, Rutland and the IGI confirms a Christening for Ann of that date.

I agree, I can see registrations for the children shown in the census records incl James Q4 1846. There is also a Thomas in Q3 1846.

Thanks davidrigg3,
Hopefully someone has access to the Marriage Record.
I've tried all my usual resources. I think I will leave this for tonight.

I think you will be wasting £9.25 - have you not seen my reply above re: this marriage?

When there is an uneven number of male/female names you can do a cross match against the full GRO index

So - looking for William Stimson or Stimpson in the same quarter and year as the Broughton marriage shows no entry with the same name or reference which means Ann married somebody else

I should have said that Carole was right,  SORRY

So, going back to the beginning - you have the birth certificate for Thomas born in Whissendine, presumably the 1846 Q3 listing right?

On this it shows parents as Ann formerly Broughton and William Stimpson - definitely with a p?

What is given as the father's occupation on the certificate?

What lead you to decide to purchase that particular birth certificate?

on thomas's marriage certificate his father is named as william stimson, farm labourer but on thomas's birth certificate the father is named as thomas, labourer.

Thomas was born in 1846 and DDRAIG has that birth cert

As shown in my first reply - their first child was 6yrs old in 1841 so any marriage should be pre-1837 and you are therefore dependant on finding an entry in a parish record either in Rutland or Leics

my apologies carole, silly typing error, thomas stimson was born 1846, i have copy of certificate and father is named as thomas on it but named as william on marriage certificate so is it possible that they are two different people?

Re: the marriage cert you have for Thomas b 1846 - father shown as William.  Was William a Baker by occupation

If so - then that matches the 1841 and 1851 census details I posted on page 1.  However - that William didn't have a son called Thomas in 1851
Title: Re: Oakham marriage look up Please
Post by: keithc on Sunday 26 February 12 10:42 GMT (UK)
On Thomas's marriage certificate his father is William Stimson, Farm Labourer.
I have always thought the 1851 census you mention may be the wrong family as William's occupation differs and there is no sign of a Thomas.
But on the other hand, the parents names and area do match up, very confusing.

Is the marriage certificate of Thomas and catherine ward in Cardiff in 1868. If so I would be grateful for their addresses and the names of the witnesses.

Many thanks

Dear John

I am helping the granddaughter of Benajmin Stimpson (b1882 in Cardiff) trace his father who we believe was Thomas Stimpson (b1846 in Rutland). Her father was Emil Leo Stimpson (b1907 in Cardiff).

Best wishes
