The Common Room / Re: Can you help me find a marriage

Hello,

Thank you to everyone who has taken the time to look into Joseph Croft's first marriage for me, it is much appreciated.  It looks as if I need to keep working on it, but it is only one of the mysteries in my family tree!!   I am sure we all have them.

Regards,

TJP

Hello,

Thanks for the v speedy replies.  I am afraid it is not Joseph Eley Croft, his dates are wrong.  My Joseph was born in 1873 and died aged 55 years in 1922.   

Kay 99 thanks for your comments.  I will look at the 1901 ref, but although Joseph's mother was Betsy, his second marriage certificate shows his father's name also to be Joseph and not William.

The Common Room / Can you help me find a marriage
« on: Wednesday 05 August 15 18:39 BST (UK)  »
Hello,

I am having great trouble finding any details of my grandfather's first marriage, but have the information on his second marriage to my grandmother.  His name was Joseph Croft who lived at South Cockerington, Lincolnshire and was aged 36 years when he married my grandmother, Louisa Cheffings on December 8th, 1909.  It was a register office marriage in the district of Louth.  On the marriage certificate it states that Joseph was a farm labourer and a widower.  I have searched everywhere for evidence of his first marriage with a total lack of success.  I would be most grateful if any of the undoubted experts on this forum could point me in the right direction.

Many thanks and regards,

Hello,

Thank you so much for all your replies. They have answered all my original queries and open some new lines of enquiry.  No wonder I couldn't find William Bryder.  I just don't know how you managed to find him amongst the Bryder Carvers!!  It must have been shear inspiration.  avm228 I would very much like to know more of the 'accident', but I don't think I will pass it on to the current family who still live in the area.  Many thanks once again to everyone - you are truly experts in your field.

Kind regards,

TJP

Hello,

I am very new to RootsChat but I hope the experts out there can help me.  I have searched all the sites I know for the birth references for William Bryder, born close to 1898 in the village of Tillington in West Sussex to William and Alice Kate Bryder.  He is mentioned in the 1901 census and he fought and was killed in WW1.  I would be grateful if anyone can tell me what I might try to find his birth reference.

Many thanks and regards,

TJP

Hi there,
My Purnells come from Clutton , Somerset and moved later to South wales. Are you interested please.
Sandra

Hello my name is Trevor Purnell and I am searching my ancestors who hail from Clutton.  I have a Samuel Purnell born 1768, married Elizabeth Parfitt and had three children Samuel, Jacob and Ruth.  I believe that his wife died and he remarried (Jane Kimmings) and went on to have another six children. Of these six Charles born 1825 or 26 is the line I am interested in since it leads to my grandfather, Charles Purnell, who moved to Newport, married Alice Griffin who gave died in child birth giving birth to my father Stanley, Griffin.  Grateful if you have information on this line.

Regards
