Cumberland Lookup Requests / Re: requesting look up in Parish Records Please
« on: Tuesday 07 April 09 10:57 BST (UK)  »
Thank you so much for your help. I will look at those records. Prehaps the Matterson name was Spelt wrongly. On certificate for marriage with sarah miller, It was transcribed with a different spelling, and the writing on the certificate does look like Matheson. so the info you gave me is very interesting.
Once again  many thanks

THankk you to both of you. I did see those on the census and wondered if it was her. On her marriage certificate it says that she was 19 years old and father Thomas miller was of Independent means. The age on the marriage cert threw me. I have looked for her death and cannt find a record so far and her Husband is with Ellen Goodwin in the later census and have not found there marriage on any records so far.

Thank you. I will have to think of another way to find out her mother. I have found two births for a sarah miller in 1847 in whitehaven, which according to the census she was born, so i will have to see what I can find out.

Please can someone help. I have a marriage certificate for James Matterson and Sarah Miller. they were married at the Parish Church in the Parish of Gosforth. Father of groom Richard matterson from Fleming Hall and Father of Bride Thomas Miller. Would the Parish Record have the mothers Name on it as I am trying to trace the mother of sarah Miller. Marriage was in November 1867. Hope someone can put me in the right direction. Thank you in advance.

Could someone sort this photos taken in 151,it's a little blurry and would love to see it looking better. If someone would like to colour it that would be fine. Baby has ginger hair and pale blue eyes.
Many thanks

Have scanned portraits but putting them on here is causing me a headache. It keeps telling me the file is too big. so I am posting a link to them and hope it works. Perhaps someone will recognise a relative of 50 years ago.

Silly question, but took the records off of his campaign stars, Clasps and mendals form that was sent with his medals. i have just looked at them all and realised that I have made a boob!! there is only a tick next to the 1st army under the Clasp or emblem (if awarded). In the box are all the medals in their envelopes,tow of them had not been opened and one of them was the Star, with no clasp, so i think he didn't get a clasp with it.
Also on another tack I have been looking at the ellis Island passenger site and saw a lot of SCARINGI families are registered as sailing from Italy to New York. Looking at the portraits the signature is most likely to be F Scaringi. the writing and numbers looks very much as if the person was of italian extraction. i know this as I was once married to a Spaniard and their wrting of letters andnumbers is very different to our writing.
I will try to make time tomorrow to scan these pictures and see if I can make them smaller and put them on this site. Who knows, someone might recognise them as one of their ancestors.

the portraits are head and shoulders only. It is an assumption, perhaps because he talked of the Buffs, but that could be because he was proud to be Kentish!!! anyway on the side of the small box of medals from O.H.M.S there is a serial number. 2/1/32603B I don't know if that means anything.
