Welcome to Rootschat

There are over 240 Wedlock entries on the 1911 census.  Are you looking for help researching or are you looking to connect with others of that surname?

If you need help - please post details of the particular Wedlock family you are connected to and also tell us what info you already have so we don’t duplicate

Hey there!
As I stated earlier  as being new,  having trouble navigating  responding  to you  all..
Nevertheless I  have been researching my  family (wedlock ) for many years now.
I'm stumped at my grgr grandparents Richard and Jane (Irwin), who were married in Cootehill   Cavan 1858...any information prior to this , I do not know.  I've  contacted a M Wedlock that lives there and was very helpful..Richard and Jane arrived in Canada in 1860 with my great grandfather William  and settled in Keene  Ontario... anyone who has information  ,I greatly appreciate it..thanks
Lewis.

Hi solidrock,
Thank for the  information,  I  figured if I follow the female line, I would be on the right  family line.. to confirm what I have,  which is,  James also married a  Jane, her Last name  is Bushell..unfortunately  everyone  used the same  first names,  and can be very confusing. That's why I'm stuck  I don't know for sure I have the right people,
LewieB

Thanks to Girl guide for posting the instructions about surname interests ..id completely forgotten it and have been looking for some people on it and adding 3 searches of my own .
I usually put names and places into the search box on this page and see if anyone has posted topics  about my families ....you cant do that with.the WEDLOCK  because it will throw up any topic with "out of Wedlock " in it .
