Lots of info there Trish - thank you. 'Look' is unreal!  I need to get into it all when my granddaughter goes home. I have ordered the Took /Tuck birth cert and her marriage cert from the GRO to see if that Took was a spelling mistake, which in my heart I think it is. My whole tree has been unreal to research in the last 6 months with spelling variations. I've found, with help on here, 3 of the Salkeld g grandfathers, all Thomas, and their spellings were Sarkeld, Sawkill and Salkelo!!! Still hunting the 1818 one. You'd think Tuck would be simple!!!!!  This site is so helpful so thanks everyone

Hi,
I did a small amount of research for a friend on the name TUCK with great difficulty because of differing ways of spelling. If you think of documents even in our time we rarely write our own names it's the Registrar, Clergy of Enumerators (before 1911) and they would not think to ask a mere mortal how to spell TUCK bearing in mind there's not a great deal of difference when you say TOOK 
I gave up my TUCK research, which also started in Norfolk, when the friend explained that among her close family many used numerous different spellings, Oh dear

Many thanks.
Having seen the entry in the book, I'm not sure how to verify that this is indeed my family member. I once thought that Applegarth was an unusual name(ha, ha)
Thought that there would be details of family, or burial somewhere.

Just a little light relief;APPLEGARTH is quite an uncommon name. We manually transcribed them from fiche at the library 1837 to 2004 during this period there were 3,079 BMDs of that 1,199 were births. When we finished we decided to repeat the process for my father's family, same period 74,042 BMD of which 30,709 Births. I was astounded, I thought my name was rare, I had only know 4 during my working life. So we must be thankful that the "Apps" are a little rare-ified lol

Thomas Applegarth born 1777 - died Darlington 1850. Can find no record of death Help please ! Where do I look ?
Also  A George Applegarth born in Bishop Middleham 1814 shows up in 1851 census in B Middleham with wife Jane, born in Stanhope(?) they have 4 children born in America and 2 born in B.Middleham. Then in 1855 they return to America. Does anyone know who his parents were?
