Is there anyone out there who would mind looking to see if there is a marriage of Philip Talbot to Catherine (or Katherine) in about 1736? 

I've hit a brick wall with this couple and can't currently get to the archives holding the registers.  I know that Phillip and Catherine baptised three children in Old Swinford parish church in 1738, 1741 and 1747.  Phillip and Catherine could have married anywhere of course but a check of Old Swinford will be a start.
Philip is my 5 times GGF - I wondered if you had managed to find out any more about him or Catherine?
This had been my brick wall for ages!
Best wishes, Loma.

I have sorted out the James Barraclough in Harehills cem. He was a jeweller & the family has some of the same first names but I have found no family connection.
If you have time could you try to find my GGF William Berrington 1845-1886 his wife was Rebecca 1847-1935, Williams GM was Ruth Berrington 1783-1880. It would be West Bromwich/Smethwick area. It would help if I could see who has been put in with who!
Have a good day (dull & cold in Brid.)

Hi,
 Grandad James was Harehills I think in 1943 age 71, Grandma Charlotte was deff. New Wortley 1961 age 89 (last time I tried to find the grave before we moved from Leeds the cemetry was an awful mess & I had to give up) Uncle Rowland 1950 age 52 ?New Wortley. Uncle George died in 1922 age 14, Albert in 1944 age 49 & Edith May in 1893 age 1.
As you can tell I do not know much about Dad's family ( I have just found out one sisters married name this week & what happened to her after she emigrated, with help from this site).
Many thanks for your help, Loma.

Hi, I am trying to find out what happened to my fathers elder sister Clara Barraclough born Leeds September 1900. I have found a death Apl May June in Leeds age 19 in 1920. I remember someone saying a girl in the family had commited suicide . I wonder if this is it. Would I have to send for the cert. to find out?
Have a good weekend

Hi, Albert Preston was born in 1894 & Ethel Barraclough in 1892. I thought they would have gone to Sydney as they ended up in Newcastle NSW, but that may be them. I'll try & find out Albert's job.
Bye for now, Loma.
