I'd be very grateful if someone could look up the baptisms of any children of my 6x great grandparents David and Mary (nee Franklin) Richardson in Albury any time after their marriage in 1730.

Many thanks

Yorkshire (West Riding) Lookup Requests / Bessacle/Besacle/Besakle in Fishlake
« on: Thursday 23 September 10 23:19 BST (UK)  »
Could anyone with access to the parish registers for Fishlake be kind enough to look for any entries for the surname Bessacle/Besacle/Besakle between 1561 and 1660.

There are a few entries on the Beta search of FamilySearch, particularly between 1608 and 1625 (the children of Henrici Bessacle), but I'm interested in any other entries (baptisms, marriages or burials) which may have been omitted.

Regards

If anyone has access to the baptism records of Airmyn I'd be very grateful if they could look for the baptism of my 3x great grandmother Hannah Makin in Airmyn in around 1785.

Many thanks

Thanks to everyone for their response to my enquiry and for going to such trouble to find out the right colours of the uniform.

I've got my great grandfather's French military record and I'm now beginning to wonder whether the picture is actually of him at all (although he did definitely take part in WW1) as there is no mention of him serving in Morocco and I think that the chap in the picture is of a higher rank than my great grandfather reached.

Out of interest here is another picture of the same chap in a slightly different uniform (from a cavalry unit?).

Thanks again

John

Smurf> Thanks very much for that it looks great. If I can find out what colour his uniform/hat should be I'll let you know.

Kind regards

This is a photo of my great grandfather, Albert Joseph Lallemant. It would be great if someone could  colour this photo for me. The medals he is wearing are the Croix de Guerre 1914-1918, the French Colonial Medal (with Maroc bar) and a Fourragere 1914-1918.

The colours of these medals can be found at:-

Unfortunately I don't know what colour his uniform or hat would have been.

Many thanks
