I'm trying to trace a Charlotte Clark - born i Rimmington abt 1857. I think she had a sister Alice.
Charlotte married a naturalized Russian: Alexander Aslukoff. Does anyone have any information about her? Is there a birth entry / marriage entry from the parish register? Information about her family/parents.
Any information gratefully recieved.
With thanks
SamZoe

Where does your information that Rimmington is a parish in Lincolnshire come from?
-
I'll answer my own question. :) The 1881 census.
Adding together entries in the 1861 and 1871 census I think you will find that the parish of birth for Charlotte is Kirmington.
Charlotte and parents John and Charlotte in 1861
Kirmington RG 9/2399 folio 98 page 18
Charlotte by herself in 1871
(civil parish of) Sculcoates RG10/4783 folio 6 page 6
Alice (listed as Eliza Alice) with widowed mother Charlotte (senior) in 1871
Kirmington RG10/3430 folio 60 page 3
Kirmington parish register for baptisms 1813 - 1891

1891 census does say Kirmington.
Just a pity that Ancestry have managed to index Charlotte's surname as Polakoff. ??? ;D
RG12/3944 folio 105 page 5
FindMyPast say Aslukoff.

Thank you so much :) :)
I'm simply amazed that you have the information.
Yes, I realised after I had posted my question that I may have muddled the parish's of Rimington and Kirmington. Thank you for helping me see why. With the information you have given I may be able to go a little further with my search.
While we're at it ... Is there any infomation about Alexander Aslukoff in connection with Charlotte Clark? I've come to a brick wall as far as finding out anything about his life in Russia before he was naturalized in 1887.
Again, thank you so much for your help :D

I've never had to deal with naturalisation but I know some papers are held at The National Archives at Kew. If you haven't got his papers then the research guides should help.
http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/records/atoz/n.htm#
The only other info I know of that's readily available are the census returns, electoral rolls - if Alexander qualified, and lived long enough to be on them - and his death certificate. (Again, electoral rolls are something that I've not explored so far.)
I believe there is a database of Hull fisherman. And if you pardon the phrase, a quick trawl :) through the Hull Archives website found
http://www.hullhistorycentre.org.uk/dserve/search_advanced.htm
Enter Aslukoff as the keyword.
Then click the 'view' box on the left-hand side.
Hull History Centre (new home of Hull Archives) may be able to help with other records.

Duh! I forgot that, by implication, SamZoe doesn't have the marriage certificate. :)
Unless she does, but Charlotte (possibly being under age at the time of the marriage) said that her father was deceased and so no details were entered for him.

IGI has the marriage date https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/NX8Y-2ZL
No fathers? :-\

Might not be the marriage date, Geoff. And they certainly didn't get married in York because York isn't in Hull registration district. :)

We cross-posted Trish, and as I said in reply to Geoff finding that 'marriage' entry, it refers to a marriage allegation or bond, not to the actual marriage itself.

Oh Pam, if only I was as young and alert as you. :)

Yes, if only. ;D

I just want to say a HUGE thank you to everyone who has helped in this search. I'm amazed that you've accessed so much information so quickly. How do you so it?? :)
I'm not sure I wold ever have got so far in the search myself. I would certainly never have found the Fishing vessel crew agrements myself - and there he is Alexander Aslukoff - my great, great grandfather.
Such a shame there's no information regarding his father's name anywhere. It seems the trail stops here as far as he's concerned.
Just want to check ... is the marriage in York between A. "Ashekow" and Charlotte Clark, the right marriage? :) What I mean is that I think that Charlotte was a non-conformist from the Weslyan Methodist church (I think she was christened in a W. methodist church - though I'm not sure that's correct). Was the marriage conducted in a Methodist church in York? I had assumed she would get married in Kirmington.
Once again a big, big thank you to everyone who has put the leg work in for me to come further in tracing my past. I couldn't have done it without you. :D :D :D
-
Now I'm answering myself. Have just noticed that Pam has said that we're talking about a marriage bond and not the actual marriage. How do I get closer to the actual marriage? I'm finding it difficult to navigate around all the sites.

FreeBMD.
http://freebmd.rootsweb.com/
(Should be bookmarked by every genealogist. :))
Click 'search', and you're looking for Charlotte Clarke married in 1875.
The marriage took place in Hull registration district, June quarter 1875.
'Hull registration district' is not the same animal as Hull town (city?)
On FreeBMD. click on the name of the registration distict and it leads to a link which tells the places in that district.
Ditto 'June quarter' is not the same as the month of June. June quarter should cover events registered between April 1st and June 30th. (i.e. Someone could be born on 25th February and the birth registered in June quarter.)
Birth and death certificates can usually be ordered from local register offices.
Unless you know the actual place where a marriage took place you usually have to order the certificate from the GRO.
In this case you're in luck because Yorkshire have locally indexed the Hull district for 1875.
http://www.yorkshirebmd.org.uk/
Select marriages, and search for Charlotte Clarke in 1875.
You will get a link to follow re ordering the certificate.
Enter the names as they have been indexed but if possible, I would either omit Alexander's surname, or else put a note to say 'your indexing says Aslukow'.

Hi I've just joined Rootschat today and I have more information about Alexander Aslukoff. My wife is his great grandaughter and recently met with a cousin who has further information. Alexander Aslukoff married Charlotte Clarke on 11 April 1875 in Hull. The marriage certificate is traced on freebmd under the name Aslakon but the certificate reads Alexander Aslakow. His age is given as 25 and occupation as sailor. His father's name is Tarenti Aslakow whose occupation is given as Custom House. (I now know from my wife's relations that this is Customs House, Riga which was formally part of the Russian Empire). On the marriage certificate Charlotte Clarkes age is give as 19 and her father is named as John Clarke, occupation foreman. The Aslukoff's changed their name to Ashton in 1915 and Alexander's son William Constantine Ashton (Aslukoff) served during WW1 as a Royal Marine.

Hello
Sorry for the long time lapse in replying. Thank you so much for telling about your wife's connection with Alexander Aslukoff. It means that we are related to each other ! :) I managed to get the marriage certificate, but couldn't get any further with Aslukoff's father's name. So thank you for the further details. William Constantine is my great- grandfather - my Dad's grandfather. We are all Ashton's. My grandfather was William Alexander, the eldest son of W. Constantine. How does your wife fit into the picture? I'm assuming that your wife and my Dad are of the same generation. I hope we can continue to correspond. My private e-mail is samesben@privat.dk.
