PRYKE/HOWE/LOMAS - Kirtling/Newmarket area

[AgLabDescendant]

A bit of a long shot but was wondering if those reading this thread (who are clearly experts in the field) can tie any of their family trees to my great-grandfather  Francis Howe who was born in Kirtling on 6.1.1881.He was the son of George Howe ,a farm labourer,and Eliza Howe (nee Leach).

I've only recently started tracing back my tree and any tips/links/data sources appreciated eg how do I find the birth certificate of George Howe ? (I've found the FreeBMD website which is v helpful and keeps the costs of certificates down) but how can I decide if he's the one registered in Newmarket in Q4 1851 or  George William Howe registered in Newmarket in Q1 1861 or neither of these !

Thanks in advance

Hi
Welcome to Rootschat  To get maximum help I suggest you start a new topic for your family. Meanwhile this should help decide which George Howe you need.

As George was born before civil registration (1837) there will be no birth cert. You could try and find a baptism in the Kirtling parish registers.

Thanks for all the help Janan and Suepip - detailed and quick !
As half-expected, "my" George Howe was neither of the two I first suspected !
Looks like I'll be planning a day trip to Kirtling !
Thanks once again.

I am descended from George How(e) and Susan Claydon.

I'll be happy to share what gedcom information I have on the How(e) line back to William How b abt 1730 and Mary Mingay.

I have no links on my tree to the Pryke family, but do have a baptism of an Elizabeth Howe in 1818 who may possibly have married George Pryke in 1838.

Elizabeth was the younger sister of George How b 1803 who married Susan Claydon
