Family History Beginners Board / Re: Looking for information on Roger Fishwick (from Seacombe) died in Sowerby Bridge
« on: Tuesday 14 October 14 20:16 BST (UK)  »
Daisy,  Thank you.  Roger died 31 December 1873 so it is possible you have found his burial record.  I'll do some digging to see what other information I can glean, but if you have access to local sources I would appreciate further insight if there is any.  Alternatively if you are able to point me in the right direction I would love to follow up on this.  I think I mentioned in earlier posts that Roger has really captured my attention due to his life history, as short as it was.

With thanks
Julie

Thanks for the wealth of information.  I do now have the death certificate, which seems to confirm Roger did die in Sowerby Bridge and wife Jane was with him at the time.

Family History Beginners Board / Looking for information on Roger Fishwick (from Seacombe) died in Sowerby Bridge

Hi All,

I've been researching the interesting life of my 2x Gt Uncle Roger (Rodger) Fishwick (b.1834 d. between 1871/81).   Roger was born and lived in Seacombe.  I'm unable to find details of his death or burial in local records.  A Rodger Fishwick died in Sowerby Bridge (Boyscar ?) in 1873 of Phthisis (potentially tuberculosis/consumption).  His occupation (Porter) and wife's name (Jane) marry up as does the period of his death (within a decade between census records).  I was wondering what he was doing in Sowerby Bridge (if indeed it is the same Roger).  Was there a sanatorium there, or could Roger have been related to other Fishwick's in the area.  Or do I simply have the wrong record ?

Please could anybody help to validate or point me to other records sources / forums, etc.

Thanks
Julie (a newby to the forum)

Hi there, as others have suggested, it would appear that Hannah married Robert in 1915, sadly I have no further information on Hannah other than that.  My initial interest in the family (aside from sharing the same surname) was to understand more about their military history and their family composition/life around the time of WW1.  Interestingly Robert's Service record suggests that he was unfit to serve as a solider and was discharged soon after enlistment toward the end 1914.  I'm left wondering what he was really like.  I'm struggling to find details of William Eppleston / Appleston's birth and therefore parentage from 1850's.  Records suggest he was born in Stone (or Stoke) Staffordshire and was English rather than Irish.  Any help in this regard would be very much welcomed

I too am wondering about Benjamin Cowsill and why I have a copy of a contract for him to employ a 16 year old Martha Eppleston dated 12/ 09/1872 as a fustian cutter for 3yrs.

I have been researching old, family, Barrett documents, origin - sale, cheshire. england. We are now in Australia.

Anything you can tell would be gratefully appreciated, especially if it relates to the Barrett family.

regards wendox

I have a Martha Eppleston, born 1857 in Altrincham in my tree.  If further details are given on the contract might you be able to scan it for me?  I hope this isn't a cheeky request.  I'm just looking to add further details to my family history and bring them to life a little.  With thanks

Hi there,  I have lots of information about the Irish Eppleston (Appleston) family having researched the 'boys' that fought in WW1 as part of the centenary.  I'm also trying to establish whether they are related to me/my family given how unique our surname is.  In response to your original query Margaret married in 1911 and must've remarried in 1917.  I would love to share findings if you're interested.  It is available via www.ancestry.co.uk in the Irish Eppleston tree, my own is the Eppleston tree, both of which should be public
