Hi Michelle

There's a preview of page 152 on google books:
http://books.google.com.au/books?id=rglxG7g4CNgC&lpg=PP1&dq=Brewers%20in%20Hertfordshire&pg=PA152#v=onepage&q&f=false

Unfortunately it just looks like the name of the pub is listed with no extra details.

pg 126 isn't included in the preview, but may be similar.

In any case there's quite a few pages available in the preview so you should be able to get a good idea if it's worth ordering.

Interesting thread.

If you're not able to get to the National Archives, I've used http://www.arcre.com/ in the past, very reasonable prices and excellent service.
You should just need the reference number C 16/332/C285

Lancashire / Re: George Green Born 1815/1816 - Carleton, Lancs

Hi Val

Welcome to RootsChat.

I agree with Kay that Michael is actually Richard.

For George's baptism there is a baptism for a George Greenalgh/Greenhalgh:

Baptism: 12 Jun 1816 St Chad, Poulton-le-Fylde, Lancashire
George Greenalgh - son of John Greenalgh & Betty
    Abode: Carleton
    Occupation: Taylor   

An earlier baptism at St Chad's for what looks like the same parents:
Baptism: 14 Feb 1812 St Chad, Poulton-le-Fylde, Lancashire
Peggy Green OR Greenalgh - daughter of John Green OR Greenalgh & Betty
    Abode: Carleton
    Occupation: Taylor

Might be your George? There do seem to be a few baptisms for variants on Green, Greenhalgh & Greenalgh in that area.

There's a marriage for a John Stephenson and Amelia Hughes on FamilySearch 1836 West Bromwich,Stafford,England https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/V5V6-VYY.

That fits with that Wright Hughes on the 1841 census.

Christening for Amelia Hughes 1817 Bilston, Stafford, England https://familysearch.org/pal:/MM9.1.1/N8T4-VYQ (Parents John & Mary)

Hi Norrie

Thanks for the clarification.
Agree that finding a headstone was always going to be optimistic.

I'd not realized the significance of that Lair information on that site - certainly pays to have someone who knows what they are doing to take a look!

Many thanks
Rebecca

Hi Norrie

Brilliant, thanks for the lead and ruling out the Lays Road Cemetery for me.

Much appreciated.
