Cheshire / Re: Cheshire Parish Records Marriages only pre 1837
« on: Thursday 13 August 09 18:04 BST (UK)  »
Hi,

Would it be possible for you to check if you have a marriage for a Thomas Woolley and Elizabeth ? in Malpas, Cheshire about 1790, I would be grateful for any help.

Looks very interesting and the date would fit.... Elizabeth could have come from Bunbury.... looks like I need a trip to Chester.
Thanks for your help
Carol

Many thanks, Carol

I have just found another baptism that may be another of their children in 1779, could I ask if you could have another look say between 1777 and 1779 please.

Hi Carol,

What about this:

Thomas WOOLLEY m Elizabeth WRIGHT 14th July 1776 at Bunbury St Boniface

London & Middlesex Completed Lookup Requests / London College of Music
« on: Tuesday 24 February 09 15:52 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

I wonder if anyone can help me.... I have been given two medals which belonged to my Mother they are both from the London College of Music and dated December 1941, on the reverse it says "Barbara Taylor - Pianoforte - Senior, I also have a photograph of her in cap and gown with the medals on and holding her diploma.... I am trying to find details of the London College of Music from around that date, the only website I can come up with is music.tvu.ac.uk but there is no real information on its history.
What I am looking for is did they do distance learning as long ago as 1941 as my mother came from Nantwich, Cheshire and I don't believe she would have gone to a college in London when she was only 14.
Any info would be appreciated,
Thanks

On the Bertram Merrell index there is a John Lees married Frances Newton at Astbury St Mary 27/01/1800 by Banns.... cannot find a William or Peter for the areas you gave.

World War One / Re: Help finding a regiment
« on: Thursday 09 October 08 23:12 BST (UK)  »
Thanks for that, however on the actual medals it has his regiment number which is 245212 manch r which I presume is manchester regiment, it also says he was a private his medal card says that as well, do you have any idea why it says private on those and lance corporal on other, also on his daughters baptism record he lists himself as a Lcpl.

World War One / Re: Help finding a regiment
« on: Thursday 09 October 08 22:02 BST (UK)  »
I went to see my brother yesterday and he has loaned me the medals and you are quite correct, his regiment and number are on the rim so thank you for that, (Inow have his medal card of Ancestry).  There was another medal, which is silver, and a photo which I think goes with the medal, which I have attempted to scan and will add them to this post if anyone has any ideas I would be very grateful.

The inscription says:

Season 1916 - 1917 (front)

73rd
Divisional
League
Winners 12th
K.O.R.L
L.Cpl A. Taylor

The medal, albert and every link is hallmarked. On the photo my Granddad is on the middle row 3rd from the right.

Thanks

Hi

Thanks for both replies, in answer to them: Albert did not have a middle name, my brother is going to take some photos of them and send them to me as soon as I get them I will post them on here. I believe the medals are standard issue from WW1, but there is also what looks like a football medal from 1916/17 season I will post that too.

Thanks again

World War One / Help finding a regiment
« on: Sunday 05 October 08 22:40 BST (UK)  »
Hi

I am trying to find out which regiment my Grandfather served in during WW1, my brother has his medals but there is nothing with them except he says he can make out what looks like 73rd, unfortunately he had a rather common name, Albert Taylor, however on a baptism entry for one of his daughters it gives his profession as Lance Corporal in His Majesty's Army, he was born in Nantwich, Cheshire 21/11/1889 and lived there all his life.
Does anyone have any ideas how I might find his medal card index?

Thanks in advance
Carol
