The Common Room / Re: 1821 Jane BRADLEY born either Bilsdale, Ovington or Thornaby, Yorkshire

There isn't any information on the Mother's maiden name for any of Jane and Thomas's five children.  Ann in 1844 born Co Durham or Thomas, Sarah Jane, Mary Jane and Frances born in Yorkshire between 1848 and 1859.

I'll check mother information on the births and let you know.

Thanks

The Common Room / 1821 Jane BRADLEY born either Bilsdale, Ovington or Thornaby, Yorkshire

Hi all

I've come to a dead end with my ancestor Jane BRADLEY.

We know that she married Thomas ALLEN in Houghton-Le-Spring, Durham in 1843 but before that her life is a mystery.

In the 1851 Census, she was born in Bilsdale, Yorkshire.  In 1861, Ovington, Yorkshire.  In 1871 Thornaby, Yorkshire (but that was where she was living so probably a red herring!)

Her marriage certificate is very badly written and her father's name is not BRADLEY,  could be GASCOINE.  His occupation is gardener.

Any help would be gratefully accepted.

I've attached a copy of the marriage certificate.

Thanks in advance

Liz

Thanks Dawn. That's brilliant. I had the name with a 'z' before. Liz

The 1871 Census says : Private House Old Eston - District of Guisborough, Kirkleatham, Yorkshire.  That's why I said Kirkleatham ShaunJ

Thanks again Millmoor.  I've ordered the marriage certificate so that I can find the information on his parents.  Will re-post when I have it.  Liz

Hi all.  Just some feedback to let you know how I've got on.  I got some information back from Curious Fox and Crowden used to be in Cheshire but is now in Derbyshire.  I've found her parents now, in the 1851 census living in Crodden Brook, Tintwistle, Ashton-Under-Lyne, Lancashire.  Looking at the census, they travelled around a lot as a family living in Cheshire, Lancashire and Yorkshire.  Thanks all for all your wonderful help.

Oh wow.  That's brilliant.  I've had this in my file for years - stuck.  And you've sorted it out in a morning.  What a novice I am!  Thank you all very very very much.
