Would you mind looking up the Molloy family or McCracken family around the Waringstown, Donaghcloney and Tullylish area?
Thanks a million

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Re: Nelsons in West Derby 1841
« on: Wednesday 22 August 07 16:22 BST (UK) »
Thank CaroleW
The information you found for Maria Nelson was what I followed through her marriages to Bingham and Horsfall. We all thought Thomas Horsfall was our gt grandfather !! what a shock!!! Having looked at the marriage certificate she states widow and he stated pensioner, but that could mean many things. He states he was a mariner. I can't find any record of his death. Her father's occupation is also mariner. I am sooo -- lost with this family research. It has been the hardest one of all my family histories.
Thanks a million for the help

Thank Slaw and Carolew
The information is of great help. Yes, Carolew these are the marriages of my Maria, I have followed this line, but it stops at Horsfall, because I found that her son - my gt grandfather was registered with no father's name. I've been battling with this for some years, before deciding to follow the Nelson line. The information you provided is useful
Thanks a million

Lancashire Lookup Requests / Nelsons in West Derby 1841
« on: Monday 20 August 07 17:51 BST (UK) »Can anyone look up a Maria Nelson for me, who I found on the 1841 census in West Derby? She states age 22. I don't know if it is my gt gt grandmother, but it looks like the best bet, if her father is Thomas.
Thanks Alliheat

Down / Re: Kernan - where is it?
« on: Sunday 19 August 07 12:21 BST (UK) »Thanks Christopher and Ballyaltgilligan..
I will follow the line you found. I think Kernan I am looking for is in Down. Unfortunately, having done a great deal of research on family history in the Waringstown and Donaghcloney area, I now have to start afresh on a new area. Without this information on Kernan I wouldn't have known where to start.
Thanks again Alliheat

Down / COMPLETED- Kernan - where is it?
« on: Saturday 18 August 07 15:11 BST (UK) »I have discovered my gt grandfather's birth was not Waringstown as I originally thought - that was my gt grandmother, but a place called Kernan. I have no information about this place and when I try and find any I just get info about some baseball coach or something...
Can anyone tell me anything about the history of Kernan?
Thank a million!

Lancashire / Re: Pemberton Church - St John's
« on: Friday 27 July 07 15:50 BST (UK) »
Hi Dee
I spent my youth at St John's Church Pemberton. It has the largest church graveyard in the Liverpool diocese and an alarming number of graves to file online. I no longer live around there, but if it is of any help there are two sites you can use while they are working on the parish records. The records are not yet on line. I had to do a physical search when I last went there. The two sites are: www.wiganworld.co.uk and Lancashire Births Marriage Deaths.
The Wigan History shop have been incredibly helpful to me. If it is a straightforward one off search they have done it without charge.
Hope this is helpful

Worcestershire Lookup Requests / Re: Parish Records
« on: Wednesday 23 May 07 11:35 BST (UK) »
Thank all
Netti - Yes I do have the marriage certificate for William Morris and Mary Ann Smith. They married at the Parish Church Dudley 4th October 1853, but not sure which church this is. Father's names were Thomas Morris, Labourer and William Smith Labourer. Williams and his sons' occupations further down the line were iron puddlers. It is William's family I am trying to find. According to the later census it worked out that he was born about 1831. Thanks very much Alliheat
Gardener thanks very much for your efforts. I will print this list out and have a look at the possibilities. The 1861 census is my gt grandfathers family, and having looked around the censuses, it looks as though they were a large family with most brothers living and working in the same place. The christian names are the same as were being used within the family until my father's generation. Much appreciated Alliheat
