Thanks. Ok, clear now. I don’t have my FindMyPast sub now so could only see a copy of the banns I had, so place was Claxby and William the incomer from Bigby. That sheds some light on it, thanks. But it still then begs the question about the Bigby baptism 1765?

Lincolnshire Lookup Requests / Place of a Marriage

Im looking again at the marriage of a direct line ancestor.

William Smith and Anne Bullevent 13th Apr 1760

LDS have the place as Claxby, Lincs. I cannot access their original document for this.

FindMyPast have the marriage banns and wedding blessed in Bigby, Lincs, same people and date.

Any idea why the discrepancy?

Im trying to put together a map on Google Earth showing development of this family but it jumped out to me that the marriage was at Claxby 1760, their son William was baptised Bigby 1765(William and Anne parents) and then William elder died Claxby 1766.

Thanks

It’s a long shot but did you try newspapers? If he had an industrial accident it may have been reported.

Thanks I appreciate your efforts. Acc to National Archives the registration of those deaths was kept locally and never reported back to GRO in the UK. There is however all the pertinent info on the local certificate.  I suspect the informant was her husband Alfred who simply did not know who her father was and had probably forgotten the entry on the marriage cert 50 years before.

There is a death of Joseph Setter at Varna Bulgaria during the Crimean War. Varna was a hospital point for troops and there was an outbreak of cholera there. Theres no proof its her father apart from he was a deceased soldier on her marriage cert. Yet on a Canada census he was Italian. On another English.

What I really need is her birth record......

I have her immigration to Canada 1871, its in the spreadsheet. She came with husband and daughter

The Toronto Star obituary is in the spreadsheet. Believe me I  looked high and low in UK parish and GRO for her birth in 1849. The closest is Totnes but it doesn’t match with later census and there is a marriage for the same name there later.

Im trying again with this which is probably the biggest dead end in my tree. She was my 2nd Great Grandmother and emigrated to Toronto in 1871. Ive attached an excel with what I know about her. What I never found is a birth record or firm details of her father or mother. Any help greatly appreciated
