Yorkshire (North Riding) / Re: Parish where Buish Croft is located in Yorkshire?
« on: Friday 04 August 06 23:05 BST (UK)  »
I have attached the census image for Elizabeth (nee Bainbridge) Mills from the 1861 census which lists Buish Croft Yorkshire as her place of birth.  She married a John Dodds Mills in Teesdale, Durham, Yorkshire in 1856. 

The census image for an Elizabeth Bainbridge b. Abt. 1833 in the 1851 census says that her birthplace is Sherburn, Durham, Yorkshire.

Perhaps Buish Croft is somewhere near Teesdale or Sherburn? It could even be that Buish Croft was the name of a house although I don't know if they would use house names on a census.

Yorkshire (North Riding) / Parish where Buish Croft is located in Yorkshire?
« on: Friday 04 August 06 21:46 BST (UK)  »
I am trying to find out the parish where a village named Buish Croft in Yorkshire is located.  I suspect that it is in the North Riding since her future husband was from Durham, Sundereland. I have a census record for an Elizabeth Bainbridge who was born in Buish Croft in 1832, and I would like to see if I can locate the appropriate parish church records.

Much appreciated if anyone can help!

I mean Rowlands Castle, not Rowlings. What was listed as Bowlint Castle could be Rowlands Castle, Hampshire.

I attach a small portion of the 1861 census image for Robert Phillips' father in law James Earwicker. You can see the birthplace is somewhat illegible. Although Ancestry.com has Bowlint castle, it could also be a verbal error on the part of the census taker during transcription. Maybe Rowlings Castle in Hampshire?

I am interested anyway in tracing Robert Phillips as blacksmith during the time he was in Malta. Could it be that he was stationed in Malta with the Royal Navy while a few of Robert and Elizabeth's children were born?  In 1861, Elizabeth was listed as living with Robert Phillips (father in law) in All Saints, Portsmouth. The image clip I attach does not show Elizabeth (nee Earwicker) Phillips husband Robert at the address - perhaps he is still with the navy in Malta?

Oran:

I think that there could very well be a transcription error on Ancestry.com for the census record that mentions James Earwicker (father of Elizabeth Earwicker) and born in 1786 Bowlint Castle, occ. Sawyer d. 1857 age 83 yrs. 

I couldn't find any mention anywhere of a Bowlint Castle.  I had a look at the original census image, and it occurs to me that the birthplace could be Rowlings Castle in Hampshire.
