Family History Beginners Board / Re: How accurate are the IGI records?

Thanks for the comments, all of the records I have found are transcriptions and I live too far away from the Parish to confirm them in person.  I am fairly sure they are the correct relatives so I think I will use the information until it is possible to confirm it.  I notice there are a lot of mistakes as the names change slightly over years and with each entry.  Thanks again I am sure I will be back with more questions.

Family History Beginners Board / How accurate are the IGI records?
« on: Monday 11 April 11 13:17 BST (UK)  »
Hi - although I have been doing research for several years I have never spent much time on it however I have now retired and am giving it more attention. 

I have found what I believe to be several of my relatives on the Family Search site, matching parents and dates etc and wanted to know if it is acceptable to use this information as I have not seen the originals.  Would someone please advise how much of the information can be used without seeing the originals?

thanks
Tina

Hi Dave (maxitup1966)

I can't reply to your message as I have only done one post and it won't let me. Re the Pepper/Larkin relationship.  My husband's G Grandmother was Mary Jane Pepper who was Fanny Pepper's oldest child (born 18/11/1873) as far as I can make out. 

I have Fanny's marriage cert dated 02/02/1889 which gave her father's name as Stephen Pepper, George's father as James Larkings and is witnessed by Frederick Larkin and Emily Larkin (not sure who these are).  I also have Mary Jane Pepper's marriage certificate which gives her father as George Larkings so I am not sure if this is because she is living with him (at 81 and half All Saints Street) or if he really was her father which I guess would also make all the other Pepper/Larking children his.

With this I think I have tracked George back to 1851 living at the above address and Fanny back to 1861 but as I have only just started to look at my husband's side of the family I am still working on it all.  Please let me know if you need any information on the above or if you want copies of what I have found.

regards
Tina

I have only found this post last week and only the week before discovered the same information as the others regarding Fanny Pepper.  Her eldest daughter Mary Jane Pepper was my husbands Great grandmother.  I thought she had all the children by Larkin before marrying him never thought that they might have different fathers.  Looks like we may be on the same trail.
