Lancashire Lookup Requests / Religious Sects 1840's Shuttleworth area
« on: Sunday 21 October 07 14:50 BST (UK)  »
I've come across a working class family with some very odd names. Between the 1851 census and the births registered in Bury I've found names such as Zerah Zuriel, Zittelle, Anbah Jepherah, Eden, Alexandrina Lettilla and Hisandrina Lettilla - Dewhurst!
All I can think of is a religious sect.  Incidentally the first 3 children of the family were Catherine, Margaret and Michael.

Northumberland / Wanted - Info on Berwick-upon-Tweed.

I'm trying to trace what happened to my G grandmother and I have been given information that in 1944 ish she was accomodated at the "Queens Nurses" on the Quay Walls. Was that a nursing home and are there records?
Also her death certificate, October 1946 says she died at 74 Castlegate. Was this the workhouse and if so are there records around for this date? Finally, her home address was given on the death certificate as 1 Brewery Bank, Tweedmouth. Who owned that house at that time?
I'd be very grateful for any answers. I'm off on holiday tomorrow so it might be a little while before I get round to thanking any informants!
Just incidentally - when did workhouses shut or become other things?

I'm sorry it's taken me so long. Yes they were married in Keighley Parish Church both of the parish and one of the witnesses was Joshua Keighley. William was a bachelor and Margaret a spinster.

I couldn't find any of the Holdsworths on the 1851 census. There was a Joseph but he was too young. So I had a look on Keighley Parish records to see if there was any info and I found -John son of Joseph and Anne Holdsworth of Ingrams, Bingley Parish. A comber. Baptised June 3 1826. I also found a Henry bap 16 1828 to same couple at same address.
So I then ploughed through the 1841 census for the Bingley area and found various Holdsworths but not your family.
So back to the parish records and -
Marriage - 24 Dec 1821 Joseph Holdsworth bachelor of this Parish (Keighley) to Anne Hindle spinster o t P by banns.
Baptism June 19 1796  born 5 April Joseph son of William Holdsworth of Ingrow and wife Margaret daughter of George Keighley
Unfortunately I then found 2 Anne Hindle's
Ann daughter of Joseph Hindle from Hope and wife Susan daughter of Thomas Wilkinson. born 13 Sept 1797 bap Nov 12
and
Ann daughter of John Hindle from Pinfold and wife Alice daughter of Paul Hey. born 6 Feb 1791 bap 20 Feb
So if you can find out when Ann Holdsworth died and how old she was at death you might find out which one she was.
If you want me to carry on looking it'll be a couple of weeks before I get another weekday off work.
hope I've been of some assistance, Janice.
