Hi
I am looking for either a joseph and sarah married and living in Sewerby/Bridlington  at time of 1941 census-----they have two sons joseph and Francis born 1841/2/3 but too late for census I think but by 1851 Sarah is widowed and could be living in high street Bridlington
Her husband may have had another christian name------so any Scotts in Sewerby Bridlington 1841 would help
Thanks

Hello Adam. Thanks for those the Francis and Thomas mentioned are mine I think. I have a will from them which fits in with the dates and came into our family via a tangled web of other Garrigill families.
Thanks again for your sterling work

Sorry for causing you more work than was needed. As you may have guessed I am new to all of this and will take your advice. Looking forward to the information on the Whitfields.
Thanks again Chrisly

Hi again. I have another query. Could you send the details of the Whitfields as they were related by marriage via the Watsons and Pickerings to the Carrs. Any information about these families would be great.
Thanks again for all your work.
Chrisly
Sorry appear to have posted this to myself when meant for Adamand

Thanks Adam for your help. Jonathan is certainly mine. I knew of him and Sarah being one set of   great great grandparents and I knew he had several children but did not know of the existence of the two girls on the gravestone. I don't think the Archers are ours though as it was this Jonathan's mother who was known as Mary Archer and the one mentioned is too young. Mary Archer must have been born about 1781 as she was 70 in the 1851census and then no trace.

Are there more Archer gravestones in Garrigill  or Alston that would fit 1850 to 1880 with a Mary aged 70 or more? 

Thanks again for your research and time
Chrisly

Hi Iam interested in the Carr and Archer gravestones. I have an ancestor Jonathan Carr born in 1815 who was the son of Anne Archer in the 1851 census but whose surname was Carr---named Jonathan Carr Archer -----he went on to be known as Jonathan Carr and lived in Bunkers Hill Garrigill sometimes referred to as Bunkeshill. I am trying yo trace his father and also the maiden name of Mary Archer his mother. I am wondering if she was married to a Carr then subsequently to an Archer or had Jonathan out of wedlock and was an Ann Carr originally.

Any information on Carrs or Archers from the gravestones would be welcome.
