Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / Re: Occupation in census help
« on: Monday 20 October 25 09:46 BST (UK)  »
Thank you for the extra info, it's really helpful! I'll go have a look and unpick it all - I'm now wondering if there could be two Joseph Carnalls of the same age married to Mary's in the area?! Seems so very unlikely but in the Mary Warrilow marriage he lists himself as bachelor which is curious - that plus no death record for the original Mary.

The child I'm interested in is the James born 1815 so he definitely seems a Hollins child at any rate but I hope I have the right Joseph.

Thank you everyone, really appreciate the help!

Ah, that's amazing work, thank you so much to all! Much appreciated. I would not have seen manufacturer in a million years - and that notice in the Gazette is so interesting and I think correct as the family later have links to Lane End.

I will also look up those birth records - I don't know if something's gone awry with my research as I thought his wife's maiden name was Hollins. Perhaps she died and he remarried another Mary. Not sure but I will look it all up, thank you.

Hello all, wondering if anyone with more experienced eyes can decipher Joseph Carnall's occupation in this 1841 census? He's the second entry down on the left.  It's in Stoke so lots of pottery-related jobs, but not sure if he's in that industry. He dies a few years later so there's no 1851 census to compare it to. Thank you, much appreciated!

Ah! So maybe the Harty entry was the "extra" one done later for some reason. Thank you!

I've attached the records I've got, they don't seem to be bishops transcripts but not sure?

(Need to scroll to the right as it's on the right hand side)

Hi Jebber, I suppose what I found strange is it was recorded at all in the one they didn't physically get married in - I didn't realise that happened. But if that's what happens sometimes that's useful to know too :)

It is odd, isn't it? I wonder if it's just an error but I can't think how or why.

Hi everyone,

Not a request for specific searching help but was just curious about an ancestor's marriage that was recorded in two different churches on the same date. They're not banns, but actual marriage entries (I found the originals on FindMyPast). I've not seen this before and wondered if anyone with more experience has seen it before? Is it quite common? Sorry if a daft question, I tried to google it but nothing comes up (only stuff about banns in different parishes).

John Mockett m. Jane Safferie (Saffery) on 30 June 1720 - recorded in both Fordwich, Canterbury (by licence) and Harty, Sheppey.

Thank you!
