Hey 2tone, sorry for the loooooong delay in replying. I took a good long break from research for the winter. Well.. more like hibernated completely lol.

I've had a look and it looks like we might possibly be distant cousins!

Our George's mum charlotte had a sister called Mary Ann, who had a son Thomas. I'm sure you've probably found Thmas living with his grandmother Ann at some point? I don't have  the dates with me at the moment.

Not sure if I can find anything for Thomas's father though. I think Jillruss will be better at tracing that sort of thing... well if she hasn't already hehe. Jill is one amazing researcher.

Manchester : Most likely not him for the death. Seem's he just vanished lol.
Got them on the census' though. It's obvious he didn't take his family off to utah with him eh?

Jillruss - Charlotte was my great great great grandmother! Seem's there's a couple of generations between us hehe.
My Nanna is the daughter of Grace Bishop, Who in turn was the daughter of George William Bishop, Charlotte's first son.
I've sent you a PM :D

Hi Sillgen.

George Bishop was born around 1821 I think, I haven't got any records yet.

Charlotte Bishop was born 2 august 1852

George appears to have been a mormon preacher in Keyingham yorkshire, but either move to utah with his family on 3rd June 1853 or (more likely in my mind, but no proof yet) ran off with another woman leaving his family alone.

Charlotte herself is also a mystery, as she appears to have had an illig. son in 1871 then married under the name Burton using an age of 26 in 1881 when she was actually around 29.

As you can see I'm pretty confused. Just wanna see if anyone has anything that'll clear some of this up for me.

I've seen a few posts from a while back about this man.

I'm looking for infomation re. his move to utah as I cannot find anything except the news report in the Hull Packet.

I'm also looking for information regarding his daughter Charlotte's marriage to John Patchett and whether or not John was the father of Charlotte's son George William.

I know George and his cousin Thomas were brought up by their grandmother Ann. But I cannot find much about why or the whereabouts of Charlotte or Mary during those years.

Any help re. any of this line would be an amazing help.

Yorkshire (East Riding & York) / Re: Cemetery Photo Request - Thomas WAKELIN - Sculcoates

I'm not sure where All Saints church is/was. There are a few references on google. But sculcoates graveyards on sculcoates lane (if this is the one) is split over 2 plots. 1 is badly overgrown and the other is in a state. Some of the stones still stand but any broken ones were smashed up to make a path.

It's disgusting the council did that, and it's meant a lot of headstones were lost.

I'll be heading up there in the spring when it's less marshy, and photographing all of the remaining headstones, so I'll let you know if I find this one at all.

There is also a possibility of someone in that parish being buried at the bankside "air street burial ground" which is largely still intact, although that closed for burials in 1855.

If there are any other pictures you need from the Hull area please feel free to message me direct. x
