Yes I did find out who Fred's parents were. Mary Guest and Joseph Robinson. But am now stuck on Josephs parents but that is no big mystery like Dot's mother was.
Just so grateful to Sammy and of course all of you for helping along the way.

Thank you for that.
I am sure I am going to have to spend money now by paying a researcher to access the records office at Lincoln.
But if Dorothy is Sarahs baby - she may have been born in Doncaster??

Well done Valda - and thank you.
I wonder if Sarah and Fred had anymore children?
Im trying to find Sarah Anns death - to see how and when she died.
I wonder if Sarah went to Peterborough with Fred - he was living with his sister Ann there in 1861.
He worked the railways - I should find out more about that I guess.
All the little pieces of the puzzle slot in but in this case the important pieces are missing.
How would people be missed off of the census? Just that they were out on the night or away?
Regards
Claire

 ??? oh this Dorothy business drives me mad.
Im going to pay for someone at the archives to research and look up the registars for Dorothy.
Did people slip through the net and not get formally registered?
I thought it became law in 1837 to formally registar births?

Dorothy Berry born 1849 Gainsborough died 1852 Gainsborough.
What are your thoughts on the liklihood of Sarah being Dorothy's mother?
Thanks
Claire

I did track Dorothy Berry's birth down. Fred and Sarah were not the parents so we can rule that out I guess.
It seems strange that Dot Robinson always said her birthday was 1845-46 and was consistent in being born in Gainsborough.
Could she really have been born up to four years later?

In 1861 when she was in the reformatory in West Riding - I have the report - it only says her fathers name so mother must have died before then. Mind you the report aged Dorothy at 14 but did say she was small for her age.
it also says she was residing with her aunt Ellen in Wakefield at the time of offence commited. That was in Wakefield.
fred is found in later census's in Peterborough.
I wonder if he went there with Sarah or after she died?

Thank you for replying.
The marriage took place July fifteenth 1849.
Sarah Ann Berry was 24years old and a spinster.
She was living at Silver Street Doncaster.
Her father was William Berry and his occupation was listed as a cooper??
Witnessess were Caroline Berry and Thomas Morton.
The marriage took place in the Independent Chapel of Doncaster Union.

Many thanks
Claire
