Title: Annie Whitaker
Post by: Hoppity on Monday 08 October 12 21:17 BST (UK)
I have been trying to help someone regarding the following but so far have been unlucky:

Annie was born on 17.6.1898 in Keighley.  Her parents were Thomas Whitaker and Rhoda Slapp.

On the 1911 Census she was living with her parents and was working as a Spinner.  She lived at 11 North View Street. 

I cannot find anything on her after that time.  There were many marriages of a Annie Whitaker none of which seem to fit.  I have also looked for a death but nothing seems to be correct.

Can anyone help on this one?

Many thanks.

Hoppity.

What about this marriage possibility on FreeBMD?

Annie Whitaker to Percival Sharp in the Sept Qtr of 1916 in the Keighley Reg. District. She would be 18 at the time.....

Hi Mc,

Yes it could be her but there also lots of other marriages around the Yorkshire area with an Annie Whitaker.  I really dont want to order all the certificates unless I really have to, if you know what I mean.  It could become a little too costly.   :(

If someone could perhaps look at the local register to see who her parents are or who the witnesses are, it would be helpful to eliminate this one.

Thank you so much for trying to help.

Regards, Hoppity.

Thank you so much for looking but I have already checked this one out and it isnt the right Annie either.  Her father Thomas did not die until 18.6.1939 so he wouldnt have been deceased at the time she got married.

Thank you so much for looking though.

Best wishes
